Flowing almost parallel to Farm Junk, Skydive is a shorter descent trail just off the northern part of the White School Sector. With swooping hand‑built berms and solid, packed terrain, it offers a reasonably technical ride for intermediate riders looking for a quick, snappy downhill.

      Also prefer over Farmjunk, even though both are fun. If you're into big jumps and features, this won't be the area of the Kingdom for you. But Skydive is our favorite in this section and we repeat it each time we come.

      Maybe it used to be great, but a top 10 in KT is a joke. No need to venture to this area of KT if you ride above intermediate level.

      Totally agree about the preference over farmjunk - both are great but skydive is amazing and well worth repeated climbs

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
