First post- 708 Woods.

{ 708woods }

Hello from the US Chicagoland area, this is our first post.. but there will be more to come!  I’ve been checkin out the site for a while and im real impressed.  Heres a little history on us.  We used to have a real strong scene here in the 90’s with 10-15 different trail spots within a 5 mile radius.  As people got older they moved to warmer places to dig, or quit riding. The younger generation of local riders grew up riding park, so trails kinda died, spots were abandoned or plowed.  Last year a few locals and I started digging, we now have 3 spots running strong and hope to continue re-building and expanding to new or old  spots. The ground is fronzen solid now with 10 inches of snow but as soon as the ground thaws out we’l be diggin.  Heres some pics from one of our spots, called Stony.

The first two pics are a before and after of the same spot 8 months later.

Heres two quick vids, I’d embed them but I don’t know how.  The first vid is from the right line, the second is the All- Weather line, with a roll in and lights for nightime, and lips made of concrete.

I’l try to post major updates here, but if you want to see more or get in touch drop us a message on here or check out our site thanks. http://708woods.blogspot.com/
