Rocky out crops






These pictures are of 2 rocky out crops on the track, they have been ridden both ways so are deemed to be finished. As you can see by the before and after photos a lot of earth and rock has been moved to make them just right. These two sections were like big jigsaws puzzle to design, trying to fit in the nice natural rock features and make it tricky at the same time.

Skinks Back


This is the next feature to be built on T3, The Skinks Back. Instead of having a normal raised boardwalk the design team thought it would be cool to have something a bit more creative going on, and don’t just think it is going to look pretty either, the skink has been designed to only just be rideable with front and rear wheel placement critical. The finished Structure will be covered with old MTB tyres so if you have any lying around bring them to the next work party on the Sunday the 15th of October when we will be building the Skinks Back!

Design Map and info

The track has already been started and about 100mtrs is rideable from the Vertigo end up, but as you will be able to see by the design map it is by no means finished, there are several features to be put along this part of the track, and a whole heap more along the rest of it. The track will be a very interesting design unlike anything else in the park. If you like been creative (with large amounts of rock and earth) then contact the design team to find out when they will be working up there next.
