Small bombholes alongside Lawbrook Lane before dropping into off camber rooty section and descending through steep berms and over small rollable jumps and a small double. After you cross the fireroad there is now a large gap jump, a new small section with a small gap jump and a boardwalk along a fallen tree, all of which you can easily ride around. The trail then continues down to Walking Bottom car park.
