It does look like badlands will have some features open tomorrow (Thursday January 18)

Right now it's looking like a rail line and three jumps - i heard 15, 25, 35 but don't quote me on that!

Whooo Hoooo!

honestly tho, so many people are complaining about the size of the jumps this year. in my opinion when i go to blue, hardly anyone is doing shit off the bigger ones that are set up this year, then i go and look on ns and thers tons of people complaining and saying that everything is tiny. i dont no for sure but im thinking that half the people that are complaining about this, do not even hit the bigger take offs. so............wtf?

Or.... not? I've skied there about 5 times in the last week, and it's awesome. The landings on the big jumps are actually perfect. I wouldn't change a single thing about them. I'm not saying this to claim, but I was boosting all day yesterday on the big line, and my shins don't even hurt today. The jumps are PERFECT. I've seen and done tons of spins off both the big side of the first jump and the big side of the second jump. Bitches.

the i beam flat bar is one of the fastest smoothest rails i have ever hit, fucking amazing

also the s box rail thing is so goddam fun when you get to the end its just so nice


great setup and today im happy to say i saw the expo being installed and it looks like the old k2 rail (red river) is going on soon as i saw it up the hill

the pipe needs to be... fixed to say the least

the jumps have amazing landings and a good kick to them, good rail line i was able to do 7 rails in one run.

props to blue but theres still a lot more they can do

The pipe is  very delicate thing to make. They had to make it skinny so they could cut it regularly and push the walls apart. Give it a couple cuts.

yea for sure im not complaining i understand that its a bitch to get right but i question if the pitch of the hill is good for a pipe for the main one. maybe it would be best to focus on the pickle pipe which has consistantly been better and fill the other pipe and put in a nice jump rail line or something?

today was pretty sick. i wish they had there jumps open, there is no reason for them not to. the s box is fun, but slow and boring, its not banked much so you have to hit it slow. the i-beams are super sick. so much fun and so smooth, a different feeling then any other type of rail.

For this time in the season they should have more of there shit out, they have plenty of snow now. hopefully there will more shit out next weekend, the need to before they completly lose there reputation to louis.

Definately a good idea. If they focused soley on the pickle, they could make that perfect and have even more room for rails and jumps. There isn't a huge advantage to having two pipes.

I almost like those wide metal rail/boxes (the kinked and the flat about 10 inches wide) more than the other, wide, boxes.
