Mountain Creek Bike Park continues to step up its game with the opening of the 50-foot BagJump air bag. Bike Park guests can now go big with confidence and dial in their tricks within the safety of the BagJump landing pad. The BagJump product has proven to be popular with athletes of all ability levels from beginners who are just getting started to seasoned professionals looking to push the limits of the sport.
It will be open to the public on Saturdays and Sundays for the remainder of the season. Guests looking to try the BagJump will be required to sign a separate BagJump Waiver and purchase a $15 BagJump Day Pass. The BagJump will be free to all Mountain Creek Bike Park Season Passholders.
On Saturday July 28th Mountain Creek will be breaking in the new bag with their Misty Mountain Hop Jump Jam. This free to participate, freestyle jam will also include a BagJump Best Trick session with prizes for best trick, best run, best crash and best overall style.
The opening of the BagJump is one of many improvements Mountain Creek has made to the Bike Park this year since taking over operations this spring. Other improvements and additions include; massive resort-wide trail improvements, a brand new 5,000 square foot Bike & Retail Center, expansion into cross-country trail operations and future plans for a new dirt jump park.
Mountain Creek Bike Park is the NY metro area’s closest lift-served biking destination, located just 47 miles from the George Washington Bridge in Northwestern, N.J. Mountain Creek offers Cross-Country and Downhill Mountain Biking for riders or all ability levels with 47 natural and manmade downhill biking trails, more than 60 freestyle terrain features and 1,040 feet of vertical serviced by the high speed Cabriolet open-air gondola.
