1st time up scotland for a few years at the weekend,noticed at Inners that the DH runs there are graded orange or somet,used to be double diamond,and same at play area at GT..
whys this?
Orange is used for non trail based bits like dirt jumps, woodwork. freeride stunts etc
so theyve changed it to that then.as with the darkside and mcmoab etc?
i guess they needed to distinguish it so people didn't think 'ooh i can ride the [easy] black at Glentress so i'll clatter down here full speed'
I think you have to wear baggy pants and use words like 'RAD' to qualify for riding the orange sections 😉
haha yeah so they think,two rad guys told me i couldnt ride the downhill runs at Inners on my bike,i said well if i did it on mi hardtail few years ago im gonna do in on mi bouncy bike for sure,the bike was sound on the runs.
