Calabogie Peaks Park

Just giving everyone a little insight to what will be in the Peaks Park this winter. the park is being moved to the main run right between the quad chairs, same place it was 3 years ago.
which we are planning to have up by christmas:
all the rails from last year have been fixed up and are ready to go, flat down, double barrel, rainbow and c/rainbow. This year we arranged a partnership with Top Of The World and they are helpin us get a couple more rails, 10flat 10 down 10 flat, 8 down 8 flat 12 down, 20ft flat, 8 up 10 accross and 8 down, 10 flat 20 down. all the new rails will be double barrels. we also will have a assorment of boxes, the main one being our new wave box gap to wave box. a 12 ft high wall ride is also in the works.
of course we are planningon having a couple small 10-30ft table but the main jump feature will be a 30 footer into a 50-60footer.
we started blowing snow on the run thursday so hopefully i can start gettin things worked out this week coming up.

I'm pretty sure we'll have the boxes in by the 17th. all we are waiting for is the puckboard to come in, which should be sometime this week.

aight here is whats up with the park. today we put in the rainbow, c/rainbow, kink down, flatbar and the newest addition to the park, a wave box. unforutnatly we didn't get our metal in yet so we wern't able to make new rails, but we did get the puck board in for the new box and other boxes that are in the works and should be on the hill next weekend.
so that means that 2 of those features are gonna be the rails for the comp tommorow.

i think that the park was better where it was last year. but you need some jumps up. not too bad thought it was a nice park. The wave box was nice but i didnt try it just looked like a diaster item for me. keep up the good work there andy i hope you get some jumps in soon.

i think its all a little close togeather and that wave box is a peice of shit, not to hurt anyones feelings but its horriable.... i ran my ski along it and it caught where the puckboard was put togeather.... but the park is comming along, the rails were set up real nice for the comp.....

that snow was prime today, so much fun floating on power for a bit before u hit ice.
the wave box is gonna be moved down to the flat and a jump with out so much of a gap will be made infront of it.

allright boys and girls, this is what you've all been waiting for. I have cat time for the whole day on friday and they have been blowing snow in the park non stop for the last week or so. which means jumps!!! finally. also the metal for the rails should be in this week, which means a couple more rails to try to hurt ourselves on. but the main focus is going into building some big and small booters.

the small flat bar is exactly what it sounds like, a small flat bar like 5 ft long. the new rails are the flat down flat, up flat down, flat down, and flat double bar.
