New and Improved Parks: Seven New Features Posted on November 30th, 2008

We're well aware of the itch you all have, so here is one gigantic dose of itching powder guaranteed to make you want to be at Snow Trails right now...it's time to release a T-Park update...the SoBe No-Fear Terrain Park and the Salomon Terrain Park are ready and waiting for the snow to fly and their new features to be placed. With seven new features being thrown into the mix, tallying over twenty-three grand, accompanied by innovative soft features, these parks are going to blow your mind! The variety will give you endless hours of new lines to hit and tricks to pull. As you figured, keeping our parks on the cutting edge is a top priority! More to come on placement and specific features in next Blogs.



I dunno bout you guys but i cant wait

i would not rule out skiing this weekend. i've seen them do more with less in years past. if the weather does what it is supposed to, i think we stand a very good chance of skiing at snowtrails on saturday. i also wouldn't rule out a little opening day park. with new features and a rejuvenated attitude, i predict a rebirth for snowtrails terrain park this year. be scared.

yeah features on opening day would be way sik.  But idk i am feeling like this year could be sick for the park.  I think they are realizing that it's time to step it up.

Hmmm I might have to head up to snowtrails this year and check it out, I have never been but 7 new features is kinda legit.

But wait, did I read that wrong. Snowtrails hasent even made snow in their parks yet. Wow i kinda feel sorry for you guys, Im going on my 7th day of riding tomorrow. Everyday there has been at least 6 rails out.

If you guys dont open this weekend I would come to Perfects. Park is prime and is only going to get better by the weekend. Actually i might come down to Perfects this weekend regardless, if you want a sick park that is.

after looking at the latest weather forecast, i don't see how we won't be open saturday. i'd assume it'll be a noontime opening to give them a little extra time to push snow. and you guys had better believe that i'll be pulling every string i can get my hands on to have some sort of a park going for the opening day.

i just got home from the trails [had to pick up my skis] but i talked to cy [will never be able to spell his name] and he said at the earliest, they will open the 10th [next wednesday for those of you to lazy to look at a calender] and if they dont open on wednesday, friday [12th] for sure. most likely a 4 o'clock opening. also, the guns were on and it was snowin from the sky, so i think theyre running the guns day and night now.

but that's all the scoop i have.

shred soon =]

^ I am right there with you man, I drove down yesterday to check a set of ski's out and it looked awsome to see some snow on the hill. I am bored as hell so it will be nice to see a weekend opening.

ok so here it is....

we r not opening this weekend due to lack or snow and temps (ohio sucks)

there will be a park set up for opening day (not thanks to mark it was already talked about before this thread)

$24,000 would have been the cost IF we bought them from a company Northern Rails.
20ft flat boxtop rail (alipne park)
30ft "     "          "    (SoBe)
20ft flat down box top rail (apline)
30ft "       "          "   "     "   (SoBe)
30ft Down Flat Down boxtop rail...
 8ft high 1/4 pipe>>>...

I can't say for sure, but it has been talked about quite a bit so there is a possibility. However I think they probably are opening earlier than they had originally planned, so if they don't have anything set up by this weekend I would assume more than likely that is the case. I would say during the week or by next weekend if not this weekend if they are going to setup a preseason park (just my opinion).

Dont get me wrong it would be cool to have a park today to ride, but its probably gonna be packed today and all the gapers will invade the park in full force. I dunno either way im just pumped to put some runs in. I will be down there today around 4.30 till w/e.

went today for a couple hours... the 2 runs they had open were in good shape it was nice to get back out there.... no park as of yet but they were blowing snow the whole time so i'd guess by next weekend they should have a decent lay out over in the park

Looked like alpine will be open sometime this week, and they were blowing snow the last two days where that Terrainasaurus was at so who knows we night get some sort of park by the end of the week.

in the Tranosourus park  there is a LIGIT 10 foot table that you can take up to 20 feet. and an assortment of real small boxes but are still fun and also the "hummer" rail set up about a foot out of the ground. small but still fun. the jump is ligit for anyone wanting to learn new tricks.  the jump is flipable
