Our friends at "The Wheel Mill" have published this video recapping the first ever PTAG Jump Jam which took place at the North Park Freeride Area "Skills Park" on June 2, 2013. Seventy-one riders participated in this event.
PTAG Volunteer Stewards are the best! Here's a story from the Post-gazette featuring Barry Jeffries the PTAG Boyce Park Steward and owner of Dirty Harry's.
The North Park Freeride Area continues to evolve. Last year we started a new middle section for the Dr J Trail and a new Expert Jump Line for the Skills Park. When compete the North Park Freeride Area will rock!! The middle section will include a bridge with a moto booter style step up jump, dirt jumps, an elevated wooden berm with a drop at the end and several banked turns.
