In The Zone – A-LINE Evolution [4K]
A-Line. It’s the lifeline of the Fitz Zone and heartbeat of the Whistler Mountain Bike Park. It’s the trail where mega-trains were born and where more laps go down than anywhere else on earth. It’s the original freeride trail that gave birth to a new style of riding and it started a movement in the evolution of modern trail designs. But there is only one A-Line, and it’s here.
2015 is a major evolutionary year for this iconic trail. Learn more – http://www.pinkbike.com/u/whistlermountainbikepark/blog/video-in-the-zone-a-line-evolution.html

If I’m not nearly as good as these guys, do you think I could survive this trail if I took it easy/a little slow? or are there some really dangerous spots?
First time if I go to whistler I’m doing Aline
Yes, easily. Just avoid the features you’re not quite ready for and enjoy the heck out of it!
Aside from a few spots like the Tombstone lip and the rock drop, it’s mostly tabletops, so you can come up short and survive. If you’re at Whistler, though, you can spend a lot of fun time on Crank It Up getting better so you’re not freaked out by the size of the jumps on A-Line. Even better, take a lesson with one of the great instructors; they are pretty good at getting your jump form up to speed and knowing when you’re ready…and definitely ask to follow your instructor down the first time to get a feel for the right speed to hit everything.
thats a freeride/ flow trail not a dh course.
Thanks dude, I did A-line closing week at whistler on my hardtail! very fun!
Wow what a video, instant favorite!
gvasallo9471 wahou ?
seriously?? those really are the worst brake bumps in the world given its the most ridden track in the world……
Rattled my teeth out.
toasty bear lol, at least these trails get maintained. Look at north star closing day, it looks like they just left it under the snow all year
Um…yeah, it’s ridden a LOT, so yeah, it’s gonna get beaten up. Of course, the brake bumps are a lot less punishing if you stay off your own brakes!
wtf r u saying
oh man thats the sickest trail I ever seen
woo 5 more days until Whistler re opens this season!!!
Pro time-lapser and now its sad its closing weekend?
O’ whistler, why must you be so far away, I just want to bomb my bike down your hills every friggin day.
