Who's ridden the DH course, how easy/difficult did you find it, did you do it in one continuous run, how long did it take you, were there any shit yer pants moments?

rode it some 10 years ago on a Ti hardtail, was tough and rough in places ( vanilla 125mm forks), but still overtook some DH'ers. Done it with some amtes at the time so A/ didn't time it and B/ stopped during course to let them catch up ( 1 had a bad crash after about 300m so was watching out for him)
Its easily do'able but keep with in your own limits. It can hurt you if you lose it though

I've only done the bottom section, from the big wallride down, on the Soul... Totally wasted on the long travel boys
Tricky, needed some very careful line choice etc. I've not done the upper section though, I kind of bottled it a bit, planned to do it as a final run of the day but ended up just doing the red again.

Did it 14 times in 6 hours on a marin quake.
I'd happily do it on a hardtail in one go i think. would be challenging but most would be rideable. only one section that i'd think twice on.Posted 1 year ago # -
its not too technical as a track but its ROUGH in places..
and you can gather some speed in parts as well.its rideable on a HT however getting up to speed on an 8" travel glory feels great..and you can really skip over the roughest parts then.
like db100 rode 14 times in 6 hours at the enduro DH - in 08 timed myself 6 minutes.. but I was knackered.. for the enduro averaged 7min30 to 8min per run.
