La nueva zona superior del 18 es sensiblemente más fácil que la segunda parte. Se parece mucho a los dubbies de la parte superior del 8 pero aún más divertida y con más flow. En el cruce con el 18 y el 8 hay que fijarse bien, porque el camino más evidente es hacia la izquierda, el 18, que es la bajada más difícil. El 8 sigue de frente pero apenas se ve. Es más fácil.
