Crack Addict is one of the longest standing trails in the Whistler Bike Park. Built in 1998 and originally called “POLP”, builder and former Bike Park trail boss Dave Kelly says, “it stood for People Of Lesser Pride because we lowered our seat posts at the top of steep trails such as 19th hole, etc.

The trail features off camber roots leading into north shore style ladders and drops.
