It was certainly character building mate, some micro climate madness on different parts of the hill. Dean said the eye is giving you gyp again. heal up soon and see you after xmas for the turkey buster spins.

Superb footage! Good to know there was snow in ballinastoe recently :) would you mind sharing your camera settings to get this video quality?

[@SingleTracker]

Thanks mate, I had loads more footage but it was unusable thanks to the wet and condensatioin. Proper blizzard conditions early on. My settings for my insta360 x4 are 5.6k, 60fps, vivid colour, ev - 0.3, wb 5500 kelvin.

Great footage, would you recommend peaty? Im looking to try out my first black trail because I’ve been on reds for a while now, im thinking of doing peaty but would love to get an opinion from a more experienced rider. What do you think?

[@SingleTracker]

@DavinRidge-m3s my advice would be first time on any black trail go slow and stop and look at all the features and get an idea of what looks doable then go back up and hit those features and work up some speed to try the biggest stuff. The first black I'd recommend to try up Ballinastoe would be Junkers it has a good mix of tech and jumps to work on.

@ Thanks a lot ill give that a go

@@SingleTracker Ive just done peaty, junkers was full of water so i gave that a miss. Some of the features like the rock roll i went around because it was quite slippy i think ill need to be going at a bit more speed next time as i was being battered by the drops. Thanks for the help
