Blind Snake is a fast 2km descent from Mount Gungin summit to Gunjin base with plenty of technical features and opportunities to get airborne.
Start with drop offs and challenging rock gardens. After the powerlines, launch off the drop down into 3 tabletops. The grade then mellows but keeps up the technical challenge with more rock gardens and several rollable doubles to the finish.
