Working Class can be described as a mixture of High Society and Pura Vida. It has some interesting rock lines along with several chutes. It can be considered an "easy" double-black (in comparison to other double blacks), or a hard black. If you are looking for a trail to challenge the advanced rider, this could be for you.

      Really fun trail. Loose, but what isn’t. Some steep chutes, really fun rock rolls and some punchy climbs. Definitely a challenging line with some intimidating features. Enjoy!

      Sick rock rolls that just keep coming- fast rowdy and loose! There are a couple of punchy climbs and tricky traverses to keep you honest, so it helps to be a pretty well rounded rider.
      Great trail!
