Does anyone know when they are going to put some jumps in, they have all the landings already made from dirt, so they should be able to open the park soon I hope. Anyway, post changes in the park here anyway.

the is one jump on the opposite side of the shack, with two different takeoffs. Its pretty small. Other than that its just rails. It's so warm up there right now they are losing snow, so unless the temps drop and they can snowmake, or they start getting some natural stuff, I don't seem much changing for a little while.

yeah theres some not bad stuff. flat box up top is very spinable and nice. two lil shack jumps are fun. wallride is sketchy but hitable. its all good as long as the snow stays

but the whole appeal of the wall was it's sheer size! small wallrides scare the heck outta me!

i agree, splitting the wallride in two was the dumbest thing they could have done.

But then again having to helicopter the thing around every time they need to make adjustments or move it is pretty annoying and costly.

When they were moving the wallride out of momentum in the summer, they were flying too low or something and hit it on some rocks. The bottom half was all mangled, so they cut the bottom off, and split the top in two pieces and put one on each mountain. It sucks, but oh well, it's still pretty fun.

The park now has 4 decent size jumps and a few boxes and rails. The half pipe was open on the weekend, but now its closed untill after next weekend because of the world championships.
