Let's see some of those Powerplay videos!

Pretty much just a repository for me to link videos. I wish forms weren't so dead. Had some trails open last week in Idaho Springs, Colorado. Just some amazing trail design from our local building organization, COMBA.

If that wasn't a responder, are the trail marked No Hikers at the trail heads?
What model do you have and did the bike feel like it was 50lbs as you went down?

Yeah, these trails are very clearly marked. The area just opened up this past week, so I assume it will be a learning curve for some, hopefully not written in blood.

I've got a 2022 A30 and changed pretty much everything on it except the dropper and front chainring. On flow stuff like this the weight isn't really noticeable until you try to clear some of the doubles/step-ups. Then you can tell, it just feels lethargic. Over chunky stuff it's great as it holds a line and is pretty tough to get knocked around. If you are one to jib around and be playful (Jeff Kindle-weed type stuff), it's probably not going to suit that rider style. It can do it, you just need to put in a bunch of effort. The mid weight stuff would be much more appealing for that type of riding.
