Red Bull Burner wrap up

Clayton Shank here with a report from the first annual one of its kind, "Red Bull Burner" hosted in Angel Fire, New Mexico.
Angel Fire had three courses to pick from. a new trail "supreme" featured huge jumps, STEEP sections, big flowy berms, and an epic 250 ft bridge. if you have ever seen the movie "seasons" it would be like all of those trails put into one. i gave it an OG 5 star rating.
the second trail was the original hold on for dear life "World Cup DH" which had huge gnar rock gardens, and super fast sections. this trail was the trail of choice for most people in the race. not only was it fast, but it wore you down.
the third trail was pretty much the cool down "super D" trail the trail is pretty easy and long, not much to say about it.

One ghost had some killer results in the open division we took home 4th with Clayton Shank, Riley Strickland, Dillon Duke, and Hunter Stuwart.
6th with Josh Barnett, Scott Polly, and (i totally forgot the other guys name ill give it to you once i find out.)
also the Gromits, Riley Farrar, Jayce Heatly, and Brady Heatly took 8th
all in all I believe One Ghost did an awesome job in angel fire. we stuck it out till the end like true samurai's. I'm proud of the team and how much each individual has done weather it be first or last place.

Never Give Up,
Clayton Shank
