Boreal...everything but the kitchen sink

Everyone on the crew has been busting their hump and everything is open and rebuilt with extra goodies...all that is except the stuperditch. We started filling it in yesterday for the rebuild. I'm taking a much needed day off and will be back on it tuesday.
The new night park came out sick!
40 ft step down double line up top..both nice and mellow
staircae
40ft f/d box
40ft house box
Stu put the finishing touches on the 49ner triple line last night.
50ft step down
72ft step down
60ft step up
the step is f#$*ing as tall as the water tank! We thought long and hard about how long to make it. Right now it is 60 ft measuring up from the take off over the deck to the knuckle with about a 15ft step up. I originally wanted it shorter but it didn't quite look right. I was too busy to get out of the cat yesterday and clock the the exit speed of the 72fter with the radar gun..so 60ft is our best guess for the step up. If its not right it will be easy to change. If anyone here gets to hit it today or tomorrow, Stu and I would be stoked for some feedback..we've never built a step up that big before.

the park is soooo sick right now. the little tranny jumps through the trees are the funestest features ever and the rail park is dope. only things that arent perfect i think are the top staircase rail (it would be better if it had a flat run in before it like earlier in the season and was more urban set up), and the step up would be cooler if it was more like a normal jump with a landing that followed your tradjectory through the air instead of a jump to see how high up you can go. other than those two its perfect and the park staff has been doing a good job keeping the lips nice n good

that first staircase has to be moved and we just haven't had time to get it done with everything thats been going on. The plan is to move it down to the next breakover and use the spot where it is now as a start area for that jib line. plus its schetchy moving that 3000 lb paperweight in these super slop snow conditions...it could make a colossal mess in the process.

That rythm section/ bmx jumps are so dope. Thats like my backyard shit, just more of them and lots less shoveling. Really digging that, way to go guys.
