Fun section that provides some small table tops and even starts out with a little bit of a gap jump if you take the first berm with some speed. The small table tops are still loose and need some rain, but should be fun once they work in. Take the big sweeping turn with some speed and it feels a bit like a drop in, with wide uphill sweeping turn to slow you back down before heading back into the scrub brush.
