I was out at the Y a couple days ago and I was just dedicated to learning that trick.

exactly fresh fun learn mountain people ride training tricks
It's kind of like a training ground, ... But I just have so much fun here. I can come here to learn new tricks during my summer, and I don't need a whole mountain for that. It's tight, fresh and new. This is the first place in the world to give the people who ride here exactly what they want.
