There's still something tech about smooth trails, trying to clear a tabletop, or manual through a couple of rollers keeps me happy. I still prefer a nasty rock garden or rooty nightmare but that little section is compact and allows you to work on skills that might otherwise get rusty. There's plenty of seasoned MTBers out there who cannot manual for toffee, and a park like that is the ideal training ground.
On the way back from Afan we stopped at Cwmcarn for an uplift session. Here's a lame-ass vid of me following the GF down Cwmcarn's DH run. It's not in slow-mo, though it might as well be as it's the first time back on the bike in two months following an injury.
