I was there last week and the speed for the jumps was really awkward. I ended up with a torn ACL after overshooting the bottom step up to flat.

Ya, their jumps are the worst built jumps I have ever hit...and their rails and stuff are just plywood with a metal pipe stuck on top.

I actually got to go there for the first time this season during my trip in the PNW, and I gotta say the park may not be to break/keystone/park city quality, but they are also not super sketchy. I have seen super sketchy and trust me, if you have seen some of the shitty parks in Quebec, you would not be complaing. Just cause its not perfect dosent make it sketchy

Some weeks the park will be super sick. But some weeks they wont even put lips up to anything, or have most of the park closed off for comps.

i really liked bachelors jumps actually. once you figured out speed they weren't that scary. now meadows jumps on the other hand. scurry erry time. even when you figure out speed.
