The last time I rode it it was decent, today it was more devastated by the water, which created a narrow channel and in some places the steps were dug out and made bigger.😬😨😱.

Hi @Cristiano Repetti, the names are always the same, the Ruino Clean Wheels is on the other side of the dam, I've never been there, so I can't tell you, but from the directions it should look similar to the Nera...

I saw they changed their names. On the website, they say BLU, ROSSA, NERA, MAMBA, and Ruino Clean Wheels. Can anyone who's ridden them tell me what their difficulty levels are?
