Not trails exactly like this. They have beginner and novice runs that are plenty fun. Coaster and Frolik are very fun twisty singletrack trails. Then if you start fromt he middle and head down you can hit Mineshaft which just had a lot of nice wooden features and small jumps put in, and after mineshaft you can hit the jump park, which has a small jump line that anyone can take on. Livewire isnt that hard either, all the jumps can be "rolled", just watchout for faster riders...
A giant reign will work perfect. last time i was up there last year, i had at least 4 or 5 guys blow by me on livewire on giant reigns... Then at lunch i must have seen at least 10 more reigns... they are everywhere!
A reign will slay northstar, so take it up there and have fun! This year i'll be riding a 4.5" travel bike a lot so your reigns 6"s will work awesome!
I love live wire! Just got a 2004 big hit expert! I rode my friends eastern slash air 5 there last summer! I just wish I had won a season pass when I was at the Sea Otter Classic. But hey thanks for upping your trail maintenance!
Very Nice Livewire is a great trail i think this is going to get everybody on youtube pumped to go biking northstar training ground is one of my favorite parts. I ride a hardtail Giant STP ss. Its great on northstar. I got dj 3s marzochi. These Videos are great keep making them
Dude third annual live wire race on octover 4th fuck man ull see me racin that shit on an easten slash air 5 with my friend on a specialized big hit 2006 were both racin it cant wait for it!!!! look for me in a red jersey red helmet white shoes black bike ive riding down hill 3 times and my third time was northstar and i was riding double black diamonds and i was just like hell ya this is funn i want to get sponsered/ride for u at northstar but im not good enough yet
DUDE! Im gonna be there too. My first time to northstar, i was SHREDDING livewire. Can't wait. Red helmet with skull candy logo on the sides (im sponsered by them).
they need more shots of karpiel and some shots of boondocks, livewire is just to easy, but an entire video of them hauling ass down nam would be awesome
that trail is siiick!! i was just there this weekend, i ate shit hard on the bridge, over shot the landing a little to far, busting my zipper and button off my shorts riding half the mountian in ambaresment, got a knife from a guy and cut off some rope that he found, then went at it again hahaha. the place is awsome, its was woth the 6 hour drive for me, the car show wasnt so much tho
I've been to Whistler and if A-line is a "10" then Livewire is an "8-9". Considering that Northstar is right here in Cali, that makes it a "10". Way to step it up Northstar! Maybe by next year you can give us a drop that is over 5'.
last weekend when i was there the paramedics were called because two stupid hikers were hiking down livewire lol thank god no biker was hurt but on the other hand one of the hikers got sent to the hospital, they got what they deserved lol leave northstar to the bikers
its 40$ and i recommend really any trail exept the expert ones unless your feeling up to it.the olney thing i reallly dont like about north star is the lips on there jumps other then that its a pretty good spot yo have fun
