So right now the one man park crew (Nick) has a pretty dope setup at bogie considering the no budget & lack of a "crew"

The guy designs, welds, builds, shapes and does every little touch up, he was skipping hits yesterday to fix ruts for the 3 of us to hit the step down, and it was his day off, solid guy to say the least...

Anyways, the setup is a c rail, to a table or flat box w/ a sick gap for spinning. That leads you into consecutive 35 foot jumps, a step down to step up to table. Beside the step up is a super fun battleship that's setup so you can do stalls on it as well...

along the other side of the park there's a flat down box, and a flat rail, followed by a step up - step down and a 40 foot down rail.

The jumps are all in awesome shape and everything has been made to be super trickable without a huge bust factor...I think I personally had the worst crash of the weekend (slammed hard on the stepdown, double ejected, cartwheelled into the snowgun cover) and I'm good to go again right now.

It was also mentioned to me that if anybody is filming and wants a custom feature built, it's $100 per hour for cat time, you can get whatever you like built. pretty cool.

I'm going back soon, I'll take pics...it's fun as hell, I suggest you go session it up.

I'm sure there's other people that help, but I'm also aware of how much of his own time (when he's not being paid) has gone into that park as well.

Which park's better? Calabogie, Avila or Tremblant? I'd guess Avila, but it's the only one I've been to. And they're all around the same distance from my place.
