The Track is pretty flowy from top to bottom. A bit of single track with a few singles at the top which runs to the 50 footer section. After the 180 berm a small switchback log drop section into another single then a fast 200m section followed by a rock garden, 7m double landing into a 5m double to a rock garden then some swichbacks to small kicker to decline to finish :D
a bit too fast/flowy to race, but the new track I hope will catter for that.

That is one of the funnest tracks I have ever ridden... I could do those dirt jumps down the bottom all day and never get sick of it. Would be really awsome if it can become a mtb park.

At mtbdirt is a post with all my intentions but after reading it please don't envisage something like Whistler, I'm not bill gates. I'm just wanting to have something that tests all ages, styles and abilities. No revolving restaurant or gift shop...hehe...just a good variety of tracks and a place to kick back and watch it all while having a BBQ.

I ha no expectations of a "whistler" like park, i understand this all cost's money (and time), i was just wondering on the plans - i shall browse through mtbdirt though - thanks dono!

EDIT: just checked out the site - sounds killer (about what i had expected!)
I like the idea of double in the camping area!

Good luck dono - i hope it gets off the ground!

Some of you may have guessed that dono's property is the "secret location" we visited with the Chosen Line crew in this thread (http://forums.farkin.net/showthread.php?t=26482).

This place is completely off-the-hook and everything I saw on the day was definitely up-to-par with what you'd expect from a pay-to-ride facility. While he may say not to expect the next whistler, everything that I saw was very professionally built and catered for all levels of rider, with B lines around all the big gaps.

I sincerely hope that the whole project gets off the ground and that everyone in Australia gets a chance to ride this place. If it doesn't, at least Dono will have the sickest backyard in the land.

Kram has just uploaded a video of a new 6 pack section that we were testing out that was just finished on Friday, hence the dust.... Riders were mostly Kram then Blacky, Tim, Lee and Me.
Found in the same place on first thread.
