British mountain bike rider Tom Cardy lays down some smoking laps, and a few tricks, at the Newhaven pump track, in the U.K.
I just went looking for an amazing pump track to show in this blog, and this popped up at the top on YouTube search results. Tom calls Newhaven "the best pump track he has ever ridden." OK, I've never been to the U.K., but I looked it up, and Newhaven is on the coast, south of London, and east of Brighton. This video is from June 2020, so it's not brand new. But he's doing several lines and transfers, manuals, and this video shows what pump track riding is all about. With video and narration by what I assume is his girlfirend, Tom tears this track up, and even finds a place to backflip. The video is shot with a mix of single camera footage, GoPro POV, and some drone footage as well. Great video showing the potential of this well designed pump track. His YouTube channel is "Tom Cardy," so check it out. 
Here's a shot of the pump track and skatepark at Newhaven pulled of Google Maps, to show you the layout.
