So I've discovered this summer that google sketch up, available for download at http://sketchup.google.com/products.html is possibly the best way to design parks and park features.  download sketch up(pro you have to pay for but you could prob find it free somewhere.  I have the $50 1 year student trial).  Download my sketchup file and open it with sketch up.  http://www.mediafire.com/?6fgx0cm0ltb

Someone needs to figure out how to make jibberish levels from sketch up files.

here are some pics from my sketch up park.

my park includes about 150 rails and boxes, a ferrari rail, horse jib, airplane jib, trailer jib, 18 wheeler jib, tank rail, quarterpipe rails and boxes, swirly rail, tons of huge jumps, a mid mountain lodge, and a huge hotel and lodge at the bottom like the cliff lodge.

You took crazy hours creating the park and then forgot an "H" in the title showing it off.....ahaha.
Could you imagine skiing there in real life? Holy shit that would be sick, props.

Wow, didn't realize this got bumped a month ago, but anyways,



I made the lift and hotel.  Im an architecture student so the lodge and mid mountain lodge were fun to do.



IF ANYONE DOWNLOADED THIS FILE, MESSAGE ME PLEASE
I lost the sketch up file when my computer crashed and the link is dead on mediafire, so if you have it, it would be awesome if you could send it to me.  thanks

the horse jib has been done. i saw it in some snowboard mag, and they trick is apparently not to jib the trough of his back or you get stuck.
