Absolutely massive! Be curious of the drop compared to Gee's last year. Forward momentum from a step down compared to falling outta the sky on a vertical drop seems more manageable. 

If that thing gets tricked, that's gotta be a winner

Ethan Nell picking things up right where he left off last time - one of the advantages of coming back to a site that has already seen action:

It's a shame that most bikes are now MX with no option to run a 27.5'' front wheel without altering the geometry

He said the plan is to flip it, but he also said he decided to share the drop this year since it's a return site, can't remember who else is using it but there is at least one other rider who wants to trick it, as well. Fuggin madness.

He is sharing the lipped side with Reed, not sure who is on the flat side

Cam said he was hitting it in his vlog. Not sure if he meant the lipped or flat drop side. With him and Kyle always teaming up on builds/lines, I'd guess that means Kyle is hitting a version of the drop too?

Right! Just checked, and in '19, both Godzi and Strait hit the biggest option, Zink opted for a different line that time tho.
