I'm usually praying the arm pump doesn't get the better of me down that stretch.

Start on dirt merchant, hit the creek gap then del Boca Vista. Rip through there then on to aLine, and the arms will be ready.
Plus, del boca is a rad trail to take fast.

Ya, that section is great. I always feel like a world cup DH racer, when in fact I'm just a hack, but it's great when you feel like a rockstar on your bike and that section definitely does it for me.

I remember not even touching my breaks for a good bit before that section came up. My eyes would water so much from the wind at that speed. Plus just the sound of the wind was super superrrr loud. Must have been going 60 or 70 no problem.

I remember riding behind you when you had that huge VPS and a girl bailed in front of you and you manual'ed right over her bike while it was cart-wheeling down the shale and she was getting owned in the rocks off to the side. I don't think you scrubbed more than 5 km/h!! lol.

baha, I must have missed that one!

I can remember running trains so close that when someone went down we all went down, or pile drived each other. Such good times. There was a time when all of us had a vps at whistler.
