Is it a ritz track? I thought it was built by somebody else, bloody cool tho

I think Sander Bisseling (sp).com has some footage of it already, as does bmx-videos.com. A couple of friends are going to watch from the UK, very jealous (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cool.gif)

If they just add sides and a big spoon to the box jump you would have a cereal bowl. lol

Seems like a great place for Cheerios to put their name and do some advertising. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

Wow.. that second straight/ second turn section is confusing... Should be cool... Trying the new ideas out before London perhaps?

I like the track design a lot, but dont think the box jump will work in a race

Wicked design and the two hips jumps to box jump is very technical indeed
It is funny to me that an older post here about tracks design had a few comments in regard to bringing back the corner jump and having a different layout and then bam! last two SX tracks are looking far from ordinary and as said getting stepped up and not just with monster jumps but some interesting layout and more technical sections.

Surprised no one has mentioned the length, 465m!!! am i right in saying thats nearly 100m longer than SA!
It does seem to have a downhill layout though but dam thats a long way

Jealous of anyone going to watch will be awesome.

You guys can make some serious bread selling T-shirts of that deal. I tried to track one down when I was in Reno.
