So they have a wind issue that they already know about? This should be interesting.

I see the potential for some opp carves on those angled jumps. The course looks pretty good.

Not a fan of the flared lips on the first jump feature. If I recall correctly from the last games that they didn't enhance anyone's run, if anything just made it harder to set bigger tricks. Second jump feature is going to be sick though.

Makes sense, pretty cool to have someone on here who's part of the build. Any chance we get a video of you greasing that hut on the slope course?

Second jump is sick. Hopefully someone chooses to do something creative with it. Why's the last jump so..... small?

I don't think Napier has a high enough social score to be allowed in the venue.

Sorry guys.
I had to get those photos taken down, worried about breaching a contract that would essentially just get me sent home, and none of us want that now.

they're still shaping the park, and new features were being added in today. I’m hoping soon I can get some photos back up once I clear everything.


FISsnowboarding on Instagram posted a video of the construction of the course, and my director told me it was an “illegal video”, any kind of interaction with that video could spell trouble for anyone.

so best just play it safe.

Well good thing I saved the photos. You know it only takes minutes to set up fake accounts, right?

LOLOL have a fun plane ride home, homie!

Well actually it’s just so you can split between them and do a sick daffy butter or style swerve on the knuckle instead of hitting either booster.

I’m too core to create a new account. OG or bust.

I checked it out, I’m clear. Just taking precautions.

once that course is finalized (they’re still at it), I’ll throw up some finished product.
