Hitting jumps that are known for death

rozboonGonna throw it out there that the jumps you built at Turoa this year were super flush. The length and shaping were absolutely spot on. Good times had by all.

And that contraption in OP... yeah it's probably fine if you take it to the sweet spot but by jebus, that knuckle... some people are gonna fold themselves like a taco over that thing.

Tim Ahie absolutely crushed it building those. We helped with the spacing, testing the angles, and shaping them up but he did an epic job in the cat.

Glad you had fun on em.


Curious where this place from the op is and what the rest of their park looks like.

CaptTurnerIt may just be the angle, but it looks like the landing is so short

There is a semi-steep hill that you cannot see in the picture that would make an ideal landing if the park crew could position the jump correctly.

Meh, that's a kind of shitty way to look at it imo. Parks should be built safely first, while also meeting the demands of the people that ride them.

I'm not saying you should post signs all over that say "_____'s parks suck" etc but you should be able to post your opinion on a ski forum if you don't like something.

I mean, it's great to see almost every mountain have a park these days, great improvement in parks, but the goal should always be to put up the best park possible. Some places don't have the budget to make a perfect park(not that there is such a thing) but it should always be a goal.

Having things built correctly and fitting the target demographic will keep things fun safe and profitable.

Terrain park lawsuits are real and a scary thing. It's not even just about having great setups, but making sure things are safe. I was scared for a few years about the future of parks. Things seem to be alright but there are definitely some standards that need to be happening across the board to keep things safe and the parks still going.

One of my biggest fears is for shit to go down, and people to say enough is enough and implement mandatory standards that come from words and numbers on a page for park building. This would make it hard to stay creative, pretty much get rid of the ability to eyeball. And if you don't meet those standards your done.

Idk, I want to see good parks everywhere but I like having the ability to be creative and not feel like I have people breathing down my back. Even if they got the best engineers together it's just hard for people who don't know about riding parks to get it right. There are already meetings happening now to put standards in place. Luckily some high level builders are participating.

I feel like some people know what they're doing and shouldn't be put in a box, and I hope that doesn't happen.

/rant ish

if you could get yourself and a few friends to smooth out the knuckle it looks like a solid jump, but no i would go no where near it in its current condition

please go back to English class and learn how to read. in the op i clearly stated that im not trying "rag on pc". and after all i do to try and promote you here on ns and at the hill, you pull this crap on me? go ski by yourself. and you claimed you hit it but have no video? but you send a screenshot of you slamming your head on the ground trying a lincoln in the group message? videos or it didnt happen.

abortionator hit the nail on the head. i wasnt trying to rag, clearly seeking advise for hitting sketchy features, in which almost everyone if not everyone agreed this jump was sketch... abortionator = 10/10 k +

I don't film everything and you're not the only person at pebble .

brett_fisherI don't film everything and you're not the only person at pebble .

you have been booted from the circle. no one cares what you do now. /end of thread

Shine bang layin it down.

anyone been to lvrssr when they had the high five/death jump?

High fives in ain air are sweet, park service taking it down because too many people were getting hurt

Haha, that looks terrible. I remember someone posting a video casing it hard on a jump just as poorly built (though maybe a bit smaller). Can't seem to find it now though. It did not look fun at all.

brett_fisherare park crew is only 2 people and neither of them have any experience

because they are high as wiz khalifa and drunk as drunk as charlie sheen from 2 1/2 men

-InfamousMax-B-fish,how old are u?

he has been 13 for what feels like 2 years now

I'm a groomer at pebble Creek and would like to let everyone know there was some misunderstanding that lead to that jump being built.by someone with less than a year in a cat.. However now the temps are going back down myself and the terrain park crew will spend the next couple nights trying to reshape this jump into a decent jump for you all to enjoy thanks for keeping it real! Your PARK CREW!

It really baffles me when stuff like this is created. Have the people building them never seen a jump or watched an edit. Same goes with rail setups. Park building is not that hard, if you have a shitty cat operator it will be more difficult, but the product should never look like that picture.

Well mr Brandon day, welcome to NS, and thanks for trying to fix the problem! K+!

And as for you mr toast, I totally agree

I would taco that knuckle so hard

well the warm temps and lack of snow have rounded that knuckle off even more after they re did it. jump is working well now. props to bfish and gavin for reshaping it a while back.
