Flow Logic

The Science of Flow

Traditional elevation profiles only show where a trail goes. FlowLogic uncovers how it rides.

Developed by Advanced Trail Design, FlowLogic is a proprietary simulation tool that models a rider journey through a trail before any dirt is moved. Using physics based analysis, this technology allows us to test and refine trail dynamics virtually, ensuring the final physical build closely aligns with user expectations and project goals.

The Predictive Advantage

By combining trail data with advanced physics modeling, FlowLogic delivers a level of design certainty that traditional 2D planning cannot match.

• Predicting Rider Dynamics: By inputting specific variables such as rider weight, power output and bike setup, the software forecasts speeds and trajectories through the trail.

• Managing Rider Momentum: The system tracks vertical and lateral G forces through transitions and corners. This allows us to refine berm shapes and jump spacing to handle rider momentum smoothly.

• Optimising Rhythm and Exertion: We simulate trail rhythm to minimise unnecessary braking or pedalling. We also design climbs with targeted workload parameters to manage rider exertion and avoid exhaustion spikes.

• Mitigating Construction Risk: Simulating the trail removes significant guesswork from the construction phase. This gives land managers confidence that the design intent is mathematically sound before investing in heavy machinery.

While final test riding and fine tuning will always be essential on site, FlowLogic provides a robust digital baseline that ensures your project is efficient, sustainable and engaging from the very first day of construction.
