I'm not trying to ruffle feathers or get into heated debates/arguments on what and where the club is doing. I am just a younger rider still looking for that NEXT LEVEL without having to travel to other clubs' trail to do so and there are plenty out there. I'd like to have them here, AT HOME BASE. Being a new FORC'n member, it's hard to know just what the "CLUB" wants or has tried in the past. FREERIDE is a huge genre (sp?) that I feel could bring MAJOR attention to our parks. MOST EVERYONE, or at least the ones I talk to, want to hit drops, hucks, dips, berms, obstacles, etc.
speak up, you are paying members of a club and you should have a voice in what is happening within that organization. if you want more and bigger, speak out. no personal attack intended here, just a bit of ranting and raving on my part.
for those that might have missed this, i just want to reitterate -
