For the experts
A Dirt and Free Style area for modules and strong sensations lovers
Les Gets Jump Park is on the Mt Chery side under the Grande Ourse chair lift. This area, especially for Dirt and Jumps, has many modules.
The Park first module is impressive and gives atmosphere straight away...A 15m long North Shore ending on the roof of a chalet and a jump into a beautiful slope!!! This jump is more impressive than technically difficult. But don’t panic there are easier modules on the side of the chalet to practise before really starting off.
The follow up is just as mouth watering : a Hip transfert followed by a wall ride, double bumps, tables, step up, box step up step down and a big table nearly 10m long at the end.
At the bottom you will find a bump field with several lines for all levels.
Family
