so far we have a midget jump, long flat down at top of hill followed by the rainbow,

then 3 other little little rails on the of the hill, and one small one at the mid/bottom

it ain't bad right now, the top rail line is pretty fun, we were trying 3 changes on the flat down sunday, but no luck

alright thats not too bad. i wish they would build more jumps with some good size. it seems like they always have one big jump and a couple of little things.

welch isn't bad...you make it fun really...

we got a long flat to down
to a pretty large rainbow rail

to the left of those features we have a down light up box (yes it has purple neon lights built in)
a wide flat box
and a tiny flat rail


then you cruise down the hill and come to the dragon tail that is actually set up really nicely (thank you fat jon, landon, seyffers or who ever it was)

and on the right days the lone jump can be solid...not to big though but we make it fun!

Im pretty sure I see you guys in the park all the time. I know i always see the guys that work the park throwing some pretty cool stuff along with some other regulars. Im the guy in the red medic on the chronics that usually falls when tryin to 360 that jump and I kinda suck at the rails too. I wish you guys didnt make me look so bad, haha. But if anyone ever wants to go for a hike into the woods, gimme a holler, I'm hard to miss

The park bully's blade can move faster and go up and down higher and lower so you can actually shape features how they should be, a piston bully cant do it, i mean it can, but it would be a super flat jump or whatever you are making.

I agree! That jump is so perfect. I just want a few more like it in various sizes.

I'll be out there Saturday, so hopefully the park isn't being reset then.

I was out there Saturday and had a great time. It's nice to have a park that's not jammed into some tiny little space.

Anyway, nice work!

So is that the new smaller flat rail I see from the lift?

And if thats the case, does that mean the dub kink is next?

yes, that is the new flat rail, and the double kink and another box are on the way shortly.

the shorter flat rail and dragon tail are going to be put up next to each other on a pad above the rainbow rail to fill in that spot, should be a sick line.

hell yeah, and for good reason...you'll be happy when welch can stay open a little longer in the spring because with the amount of snow they had on the hill...it wasn't going to last to long.
