CURRENT PLANS:
Build a new section in Piper's hill just after the slabs, before the new downhill section. A bit more downhill, a proper switchback and a simpler climb back onto the new bit.

Sort the surfacing and berm the downhill bit in the section just after the pond on the South side of the pitch.

Build "Ian's corners", a set of 4 big berms on a downhill section.

LONGER TERM PLANS:
Rebuild the twisty section just before the trail comes out opposite the pond. The aim is to spread the trail out a bit more and to smooth out the excessive number of sharp corners. This is now well under progress.

Rebuild the downhill section near the steep rock garden. This is the section just after the jumps area. Realign the rock garden. Add table top, berms, as many jumps as possible.

Remodel and surface the triangle section, retaining the existing woodwork.

Build the new section on the East side of the pitch (3 times as long as at present).
