the scottsman kinda freaks me out. i hit a tree or something after the landing. Cross eyed mary is currently my favorite, such a smooth landing. I still dont know how to get to broken tooth. Bunkstar you gotta take me to that one next time i come up for a visit.

I shot some video of the features on the freeride trail, top to bottom, which may be of some help. I'll post after I edit it. I want to take a whole inventory of the place and hopefully put a name to everything. After coming in hot and launching the Scotsman, I think that's the drop I get the most air on out of the ones I know.

Have yet to find Dreadnought this year. It was easy last year since I think it was part of the race course at the end of the year, or at least near it.

Also, I noticed this one drop at the end of the day. When you're coming down a fire road, it's a rock face on the right, right next to the road. Looks to be around 8', but kind of flat. I was wondering if that's hittable...

PS - Bunker, we'll give you a shout after our trip to get a day of work in.

That drop was in a race last year, only two crazys hit it, Lars & Hudson, it's a flat not smooth landing, but with some work the landing could be sweet.
The dreadnought is easy, go down the fun run, take the left after all the berms and the three kickers, it's a couple hundred feet down on the right.

enjoy,

We will be building the Gravity East final race course this weekend if anyone is interested in voulenteering, we can use the help,

thanks,
Karpi (aka Tom)

Yeah Hud hits that thing all the time for the past few years. He told me he once bent a handlebar in his hands on the landing. i think they call that drop "sidepocket".
