at bogus today they had a rail jam that was terrible i was entering up until i saw the set up

it was placed at the bottom of a main run that was very steep and had a rail sloped down and gave the skiers a 2 sec reaction time from the platform to the rail the 3 sec after maybe was a crappy battleship rail(up flat down) then next to that was the best feature there a barrel sticking up to jib (which some kids did some sick stuff off) and then at the end a huge (crappy) black barrel type thing

and the entry fee was 25$ it was the stupidest thing ive ever seen ! terrible job bogus basin!

Fuck bogus go to tamarack!

Eh not much better then ours.
1 Down Box rail.
Kicker to Barrel.
Then a picnic table at the end.
It was even sponsored by Salomon. Atleast we have jams now though.

same with my park director except they make weird ass shit thats sick. The crew switches around the features like every week or two to keep things fesh and theres always something new and creative to hit.

the ski patrol of course took it down the same night that they put it up, Then plowed all the features with a snowcat.

They would'nt want anyone to get hurt would they.

Barrel tap was ok, i guess the tube stall was too, the other two sucked for skiing.

That's called a C bow. If you guys started hitting logs, you'd know that they fucking rock.

ARE YOU FUCKING HIGH? Does that look like a natural rail to you? How often do you find a LOG that is carved, bent into a c and propped up on another log?!

technically all rails are natural, because metal is made up of materials found on and in Mother Earth.

what about the photos they were shooting at the jam?

was it Mountain Life who was taking them or that one dude who used to take photos up at Bogey Peak? i dont think Mountain Life does Bogus now that i think about it.
