  • Already one of the best Downhill venues in the country, Snowshoe Bike Park isn't resting on their laurels.
    Come check out the latest addition to the official trail roster.
    This yet to be named black diamond utilizes the general trail bed of the old enduro trail "P", and introduces a blend of machine cut berms, fun rock jibs, drops and a couple of tricky doubles while still keeping some of the solid raw tech from the previous trail.
    Come see why this recently minted IMBA silver status ride center is already well on it's way to gold status.

    Don't forget, Snowshoe needs help naming this trail, so please drop ideas and votes on their recent instagram post here: tvCRPyagfA...

      Not sure the model exactly, but it’s the short sleeve in their stealth line-up. It’s pretty minimal which is nice here in the southeastern summers.

    Love your videos so far! I’m going to be at Snowshoe for the World Cup races, and I’m interested in trying the Backcountry Silver Creek trails, but I’m only an intermediate rider. How technical/difficult is airport ridge trail, lower beaver dam, and headset adjustment trail? I know I can stay on black run road past airport ridge & lower beaver dam trails, but Is there another trail I can take at the end of enchanted forest trail?

    • @SemiSendy
      @SemiSendy  Před 2 lety

      Airport Ridge, Beaver Dam (upper and lower) and headset adjust all feel relatively similar in difficulty to me. By most trail system standards, they'd likely receive a black rating. That said, I'd still suggest getting out there on them. You can always walk sections you aren't comfortable with, and even when hiking the bike, it's an incredible experience. If you've had enough at any point you can always bail at the next road/forest road intersection.

    This trail didn’t/doesn’t seem to be on the map. I was there last fall and asked a few people about, but they didn’t know what I was talking about. Where do you access it? Do you know how they finally named it? Great videos. I’m a subscriber and watch them all. Keep up the fun work.

    • @SemiSendy
      @SemiSendy  Před 2 lety

      Hey Ben! Yeah, not on the map just yet, but easy to find once you have the info. It begins at the same gate entrance for Dreamweaver right next to the Ballhooter lift. You immediately cut left onto it as you pass through the break in the wooden fence dropping in. It's one of those hidden in plain sight situations where the wooden post of the gate blocks your vision of it, and the well defined trailbed of Dreamweaver keeps your eyes looking in that direction instead. In this video at 3:54, the trail you see to the right is dreamweaver, and the fence entrance is immediately behind me.
      Only another 1.5 months until it opens back up!
