Description
A short distance up the Alpha track, you'll find The Sling heading off to the left on one of the hairpin corners. It's designed as a climbing track but can be ridden in both directions. It has a good surface with a number of tight hairpins. This trail pops out at a connector track that goes to Sequence, or you can climb to the top to access the Jubliee Gum or Golaith tracks.
