Everytime we go it seems to be wet and horrible so we've never really ridden the shore. All day is spent on the Dual X, the Hip in the freeride area or on the DH. Come down to the Bull, it should be right up your street! |

| It's because the FC are getting more involved and they are very anti-shore and very pro H&S. A lot of the shore was getting a bit old anyway, so it needed taking out (much has been already). Seems the only way to keep wooden structures in place here in England is to call them 'boardwalks'... then the FC are happy - i.e. the boardwalk is a wooden structure to get you from a to b over boggy/unridable stuff... then that seems to be ok. |

A shame to hear that. The forestry at Bedge only let thier constructors build the shore. That seems the only way the they deem it 'ok'.

Stacked the drop next to it propperly when we went 
Nice vids Russ. There's some serious flow in the Welsh stuff too  Add the videos here if you like would be a nice addition: http://vimeo.com/groups/18658
