saratoga does, and we're like 30 mins north, so maybe? but that doesn't really help.

I live in troy, the hand rails of RPI's BARH are pretty famous and so are the HS and MS rails, If there is not enough snow
go behind the ice rink and get some! Call me if you need some help

theres a quad kink and a few d-f-d's at skidmore. the bust factor is pretty high for all the nicest ones, but we might be setting up one of the easier ones thats in a better location later this week. i'll post if we do so that anyone interested can join us

depends what you consider good for park... they might have the pipe cut, and it will be HUGE... park is weak right now, jumps are small... meaning no 40+ of anything

oh shit dude, that sucks. what time were you out there? we were gonna go set it up at like 1 or 2 in the morning to try and minimize risk, but i've already had to deal with saratoga police once and i don't want to have to go through that again.

You were the one's hitting that? I drove by the other day and saw that it was all set up. In addition to all the rails at RPI, there's a pretty sweet bomb drop off the St. Mary's hospital parking lot on 11th (I think that's the street). If we get this storm on Wednesday, we'll definitely be out there.

Yeah I've seen the rail in front of BARH (the dorm on Burdett) in at least three separate snowboard videos.
