My favourite post ride snack. Jam Jam acts as a progression from Swedish Fire Torch and is full of jumps, pumps, drops and berms making it highly sessionable just like it's cookie counterpart.
Although all features can be rolled OR have a ride around, several features would be at home on a black diamond trail. Riders should inspect the line and look before they send.
