It's nice, but I don't think you can fit that in a 200X200 area...

But anyways, here's a layout and instructions below.



Take off on start and take a left hander.

Far inside hits a little double, outside just jumps out on a single. Then carry down to a low table top.

Sweeping righter hander with the inside line having 2 small kickers to slow you down.

Tabletop with a single in the middle so you can just jump and land on the single if you'd like. Then into another sweeper corner.

Single to table top right out of the corner, into a whoops section, then bottlenecks a little into a low, floater style tabletop.

Wide left hand berm into a triple, then into a 90, SX style left hand berm.

Decent sized step on step off, then land and the left can hit the tabletop, or the right can hit a kicker ONTO the tabletop and then hit a kicker to jump down to the landing of the table. Then a tight right hand corner.

Long straightaway, and the right side can hit a small kicker to jump onto the single, then power to try to clear a big table top. Or the left hand side can hit the single wide open and jump up on top of the table top. Then a left hand corner.

Whoop section to a single, to a whoop section, to a raised berm (like a off camber jump thing).

Power through a rhythm section of 5 jumps, then hit a decent sized table top, and a small double to slow you down for the next corner. Tight, tall bermed left hand turn.

Then a table table section, that's capable of being linked together into one jump if you get the speed. Then a small triple section, and a right hand turn.

Pyramid/triple/ step-on-step-off style jump, then a 180 bowl turn, a couple whoops, and then a S curve into a single that launches you out into just a field to powerhouse through.

At the end of the field there's a kicker on the inside to slow them down a little, then bottleneck down to go past start... and that's the end of the track.

Like a long arenacross with some open sections.
Looking good.

Re: track design contest !

hmmmm I have a lot of ideas. I like a lot of elevation changes to make it real fun. My track is 200 deep by 100 wide 4 rows up and back but no hills just sx style. I would rather have mx style

Re: track design contest !

The most important thing to think of arround here is to always think of drainage pitch so you dont always have puddles or mud to deal with.

It's all to perfect scale for a 200x200 area and a 12' lane.

Re: track design contest !

I never plan that far ahead with track changes and draw anything out. I will have an idea in my head. Put a couple new songs on the Ipod and start pushing dirt.

I always have something I want to change. The problem with having 2 tracks and just added a 3rd with a small peewee track to the side for the lil ones. Dont have the time to get everything to the point I want but we have ride days the next 2 weekends. I will get a good overview pic this weekend with the current track lay out. hahaha


Im itunes now looking for good songs. I have a lot of cleaning up of rain ruts and making some changes Fri.
