Big day in CB today, 39mi and 6600', all awesome singletrack descents (lots of halftrack too). Perfect dirt after all the rain.

Myself and my boy Jon from TGR HQ went down to Park City for the weekend for a tour around the many, or practically endless, options there. Pretty much gave myself heat stroke trying to get all enduro over any little downhill, but being on a 27.5" for only the second time made me feel like I could carry a significant amount more speed up, over, and around, so it was hard not to wanna enjoy that. Anyways, you don't give a shit, so here's some pics that will go in an article that will come sometime later:
Starting our Saturday ride around Roundway (?):

Jon from TGR (sales/marketing bro) attempts pump tracking on a 29er at Trailside park:

Finally got to photoslut myself so you can all know how rad I am at #enduroing ;):

New flow trail at Trailside is stupid fun, big deep berms to big into, fun hippy jumps in between, and this wood thing:

Overshot the landing a little bit on the wallride...

Got to do some bike park'ing at Canyons, too. Here Jon leads:

GnarWhale was showing us around and helped me figure out how to focus a camera not on the tree immediately in front of you, which was a huge step in personal #progression. thanks Jim! This is him shredding:

GnarWhale gets all enduro into this corner on Canyon's Richocet trail, which was my favorite part of their operation:

Pro ski brah Carston Oliver leads pro bike brah Eric Porter up and off the wallride:

Porter is also very good at doing custom photoslutting no matter how benign the corner...

Thanks again to GW for helping with the camera stuff, as none of these photos woulda been in focus without the assistance!
Nice pics, god that looks fun.
Those kinds of wall rides have always eluded me.
Recent rains have been good for the trails.
This was a fun rip with an old friend who was in town on Sat night.

Del+beasties= :)
Sick Flowtron! Is that wasatch crest?
Those PC pics are sweet! I need to hit that stuff next time I'm out there...well, some of it :wink:
lots of awesomesauce in here recently, you kids are getting after it!
drug my better half out onto her first real xc adventure, you can see she is thoroughly enjoying herself with that forced smile...
maybe 800mm bars, ss, rear brake only, and a jacked up seat thats still too short arent the greatest way of showing a noob the ropes?
Attachment 157209
she crushed regardless, been on 2 more rides and a day on the pump track, had to wear pants all week to cover bruises and scabs, im so proud, now saving pennies for something worthy calling her own
buddies having some fun on the 4x

Yeah forty! Gotta get 'er out there someway. When we were in PC I saw a little kid pedaling around singletrack on a BMX bike with the seat all the way down, called him out for being a dirty single-speed hippy ;).
Starting to get some mellow tabletops/whips down this summer and thinking the next move is to remove a hand from the bar, but somehow it never happens.
Yup, I hear you. I'm 90% sure I could nail it with no issue, but the fear is not getting back on cleanly and landing.Quote:

Likewise, next time I get up Jackson for bidness I'll do the same.
