you can definitely go to lake placid. I called them up and I was going to go - but the timing was off so I wasn't able to before school started.

Lake Placid is an amazing facility. I'm not sure if they've added a freeride ramp yet, I know there was talk about it a few years back. If you can't throw any regular trick you want off a L 1 Kicker, You don't really have the basics to be learning anything bigger switch.

they airate the water with jets to remove the surface tension and reduce the "smack" you would get from doin a belly flop...id really like to try a belly flop on those pools to test if it would hurt.
im just takin up rollerbladin and goin to a gymnastics place in the summer
