there's a down rail, dfd rail, up box, flat box, rainbow rail and another down rail at the bottom with the triple line. which i think is sweet but to cliam 3 features as a "rail garden" is bit of a joke

Hells yes.

I assume the dfd is that nano jib sized one that's like 5ft down 5ft flat 5ft down?

last year the rail garden was below the halfpipe (anyone know when that's gonna be open btw? snow report says they're blowing snow for it) with like 5 different features.  it was always super fun, but not what i'd consider a rail garden, considering it had a super mini quarter and butter pad.

has north slope changed at all?  gahh i'm dying to get back up to stowe.

Tyro will open this Friday 8th...

Then we move on to build the pipe and rail garden on Lower Standard should take a week or better depending on snowmaking...

Yea I know it's a small rail garden but maybe more of a Chia- rail-garden, mini but fun...

More to come...
