If you haven’t heard, there is a new Super D race happening on Mt Hood the weekend of September 12th and 13th! This is a race I’ve been dreaming of for years and am happy to see it come to pass. Big thanks go out to everyone at Hurricane Racing, Timberline Lodge, and at the US Forestry Service for making this happen. This race is being brought to us by the good people at Momentum Sports in Sandy Oregon. If you need any goodies on your way out or need parts after practice, be sure to hit them up!

Lars Sternberg and I were out riding that track on my birthday two years ago, and took some film of it. We had an epic ride down the hill. It was my first time down the top section in years, and my first time ever on some of the middle sections – and this was Lars’ first ride down the track. It was really fun to see what came after each hill and corner at speed! Thanks to Andy Tran for prepping the video. Also – SUPER BIG THANKS to FOX SHOX for making this video possible. Lars and I are both riding the Fox goods front and rear. Check out how our trail bike were performing at Hood here.
