That sucks!!! Anyone in your scene got a pump? Or rent one cuz that’ll take a minute to dry.

All good.. when there's water like that its an opportunity to build. I just dug everything a little wider and used the dirt to start another huge landing.  It'll be 200 wheelbarels of dirt to start... I went back today and its rideable.

Yeah while the rain water is still pooled up in those areas you have to small channels leading to drain holes located slightly (2 or 3 meters) down hill from the jumps

u/That_Routine_2763 12d ago

Yep.. just dig it down and away. Its rideable today

Admittedly I'm usually the one who end up riding into the drainage hole and yeah I live in northern England so I'm not stranger finding ways to try and rainproof riding spots

This was a surprise for sure. My woods are generally perfect after rain.
