Description

Ginormous starts at one of two entrances on South Porcupine Trail. The trail uses an old wash, the results are amazing. Using the existing walls, turns and natural humps offers you the rider an awesome run done a great trail.

It is ONE WAY, down! DON'T GO UP. Other notables to know are there are multiple lines at times so be aware you know the level of each line. Some lines hit kickers or lead to steep drops. The easiest line is to stay low in the wash.

Dropping in! The very beginning of the trail just after the two access points join.

Wall ride to small kicker. This is where the fun begins. You'll find every turn is a berm or wall ride and large to small kicker options to the end.

This is fucking awesome, but way too short. 15 or so amazing and natural linked corners. So much fun.
