Sandy's newest jump trail is an expert-level, machine built jump trail. Vast majority of the jumps are gaps so pre-riding is advised to ensure success and safety. Trail starts big with a few 20-25' gaps, then moving to gaps in the 10-15' range before mellowing in the second half with gaps more in the 5-10' range.

Enter trail via the lower Hide N Seek entrance (across from the bottom of Flowmotion) - pedal up trail over two bridges, push up other side of bridge up the rock garden- 50ft to the entrance of "Johnny Royale". IF your coming from the upper system- its at the very bottom of "Two Turntables" or bottom of "Upper Hide N Seek"
