The Pool Shark is a cross between a nature trail and a pump track. It is a fun and 'twisty' trail built on dirt mounds leftover from historical soil dumping activities. The trail is set among thick Casuarina regrowth and offers various log features, sharp rises and descents, doubles and blind corners. The trail is downhill and is one way.

      Great fun track. The mounds are big and plentiful and the trail is well maintained. On your first time look out for the big rock drop A-line right at the beginning.

      My fav trail in Scribbly. Big mounds and an 800m track takes 3:00 to do for me.

      One of my favourite trails. The mounds really add a bit of spice to the use of the flat terrain. For any new riders, I highly recommend this trail to learn the ropes of what the sport of Mountain Biking has to offer.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
