Hi Everyone,

I used to race bmx and I recently started mountain biking. A few months ago I started getting interested in dirt jumping. I found out very quickly that dirt jumping trails are hard to come by and it is equally hard to find people that are into it in your area.

That is when I decided to build a website to bring dirt jumpers together and a database where people can add and search for dirt jumping trails. It has been up for a few weeks now and I was wondering if anyone knows of any dirt jumping trails to add to the database.

I realize that a lot of trails are private and in areas that they are not supposed to be. The last thing that I want to do is to get someone's trails torn down or ruined so if that is the case you could just not add them or only list the Country, State, City, and a way to contact you or the owner of the trails. That way you could screen the people before they know the actual location of your trails.

There is also a lot of useful info like how to build dirt jumping trails, a blog about dirt jumping, videos, forums, and it is growing every day.

I am open to any suggestions and I would love to hear everyones opinion on my website and ideas.

If you would like to check it out the url is http://www.dirt-jumping.com

Alot of mountian bike dirt jumps suck for BMX's. They arent exactly smooth.

Same. I want to ride trails and throw some super clicked turndowns. Dirt also hurts less than pavement.

It can also be sketchier.

I do some trails, but not many even though we have LOTS here. A short rearend and two slicks dont help either.
