World cup jumps

Finally, a week late we got the excavator so we could start building up the jumps at the start of the world cup trail (European champs trail, last year).
The UCI rep asked how we could top of last year’s event…
There is only one answer to that of course, -GO BIGGER!
So that is exactly what we are doing.
This is the last of the 4 jumps just after the start, we are pulling the lip back around 3 meters and putting it more to the side so we can leave it over the winter. That also make it more into to a hip jump…
Also the first jump will be bigger. We are moving the start house about 10 meters to north witch give us a longer run in to the jump = more speed :-)





Fast-girl Kari Anne had a look and the comment was "F... its big!"


Up and away!!! (Doing my "Usain Bolt"...)



Tomorrow it will be adjusted and get the final touch

Ekspressen smoothening :-)

The short but heavy rain shower on Saturday washed out the landing of the step down in Ekspressen and while we were at it we removed a lot of rocks down to the road crossing. The trail crew got some much appreciated help.
Girlpower rocks !



The ditch was 40 cm at the deepest spot and it took some elbow grease to fill it



When it was done it turned out really good and we also removed some rocks in the landing on the right hand side.




These girls not only ride hard, they work hard as well :-)

Roller Coaster, mid-section.

We are now 3 weeks into this year’s building on the mid-section of Roller Coaster. (Above the road were you are dropping in today, going all the way up to Moe`town).
This is jump number seven in the making so far. This is in the worst part to build in and it is really wet and muddy, so it is taking it`s time…

Roller Coaster

Monday we started building at the mid section of Roller Coaster.
This is the section betwin the crossing of Moe`town and Døldaveien (today`s start).
