BareNecessities
@t_w
At BPW the trail head for Fifty Shades is shared with the newest blue trail Terry's Belly, the run-in trail diverges and the "qualifier" for Fifty Shades is the little gap jump seen at around the 1 minute mark in the vid BareNecessities showed.
There is no ramp drop off at at the trail head. Maybe there was one before Terry's Belly but not now.
The qualifiers make sense because if you can't do them under pressure and in full view of spectators (and they are generally easier than such features on the trail itself) then this means less able people don't injure themselves on big features.
