Ya I was there for a few runs this morning but my boots were still wet from last night so I didn't stay long. The second jump is money but I definately liked the way the first one was before it was turned into a tabletop jump. The previous 3 jump line on turkey I think was perfect for people to get used to hitting em fast enough to clear and get that hang time feeling much more than tabletops. I think tabletops kinda let you speed check more and not worry about landing flat which is fine but the gap jumps prepped people for Rhodo much better. Wipe out those small wedges that make you land flat in the progression park and build a nice tabletop there:) Just my opinion though I'm sure whatever gets built will be fun to ride, Upper moores is great! Love flat boxes. A nice fun long butter pad somewhere would be awesome too:) I'm definately not the best of riders out there so my views are mainly from a progression stand point.

P-Architect what happened to turkey trot? It shrunk after the snowmaking bring back the first jump the way it was and the 3rd one too

Depends on the girl

It's definately being used, you just don't see swarms of people comming down its actually pretty busy weekday nights. Reason being it may look empty everyones in a line on their way down taking turns hitting each feature stopping at each feature. Otherwise maybe the conditions were really bad that night because it was so warm during the day that people werent riding park? Are you the ski patroller on a snowboard I seen hitting the turkey trot jump line and c-box from the lift on friday?

The park pass lift and area really dosnt take that much away from camelbacks freeriding. Its for the safety of the familys even though they may not like it theres nothing more dangerous than a little kid sitting on the landing of a jump waiting or watching in the wrong spot for the kid and for the park rider. I consider it a big improvement for Camelback in quality of the park and safety for others.

LOL

My advice is no, why mess with the structural integrity of your board? If you must go wider get a larger board or a different model thats set up to go wider. If you say you don't have the money for a new setup than you definately shouldn't do somthing to a nice board you already have to increase its chances on breaking forcing you to replcae it.

Amazing job Will, the new setup was much needed it's been awhile but definately worth the wait. It's a ton of fun to ride!

The 3 jump on turkey trot is slightly smaller than the 3 jump line on Love if you ride boulder. The lips arn't as verticle as Love they give you a bit more distance, def a real fun jump line and you can easily clear all 3 in one run if you don't stop.

I feel like a twit than, I must have been going alot slower than I thought I was. I know if I didn't speed check before it I would of been fine though I landed right on the knuckle thought I was gonna snap the nose of my board off. Like I said still learning the whole speed to gap thing, I'm so used to small forgiving table tops.

You definately need some speed for the last two at least the 2nd to last one. I knuckled it the first time I hit it because I hesitated a little and speed checked. Although I'm just starting to hit larger jumps such as these so I'm still getting the feel for judgeing speed to the size of the hit and quickly learning the faster the better.

Just curious how big the jumps on love are considered. I have bad size judgement when it comes to jumps I love them though, first time at boulder this season

They should line the kids up and let every victim take a baseball bat to each of their knee caps than just let them lay there and think about what they did. I had a brand new board stolen once it's the worst feeling in the world it made me quit riding for a couple years of my teenage life out of disgust and lack of money to replace it.

They're trying to keep weekend/holiday crowds down to a minimum for us locals, ya know?

I did lol, we were right in front of the net. They ran us off on aux and than they reopened it dunno what happened.

Not to my knowledge unless you ride there often. My friend bought this thing from them a Camelcard for $49 that gives you 50% off all weekday tickets and 25% off all weekend tickets. Just a heads up im sure you already know Camelback is a zoo on the weekends but the park shouldn't be to bad with the pass lift.

I was only up there for a short while tonight and only lapped the park twice. Looks like they're in the process of doing what P-Architect was talking about in my last TR. *Upper Moores: Flat Box set up much better than before when it was directly under the lift, Table Top, Butter Box, another Butter Box. Seems like theres still plenty of room to add another jib or two. *Lower Moores: Option of down box or down flatbar rail, S box, hip jump. *Turkey Trot: Nice 3 jump line and the long C box at the bottom. Rhodo: Didn't ride down it tonight but dosn't look like they built the new jump line yet the 60 ft looks beautiful though.

Agreed theres nothing worse than slipping an edge on a icy day going off the lip of a jump than flopping through the air. lol

For a bitter cold pow day Thursday. http://www.accuweather.com/us/pa/tannersvi...=1&metric=0

I think all the resorts in the area are gonna take advantage of the ridiculas cold spell. The colder it is the more snow they can make and with it being below zero it almost forces them to make powder which piles up like crazy. If they can make base snow during the day and the bitter overnight temps make masses of piles and layer it over the course of a week we could be riding into April

I was up there real late March two seasons ago and it was amazing. Although I spent most of my time at Jay Peak and one day at Stowe both mountains had great covereage on trails and in the woods and it was all beautiful spring soft snow for the most part. We were going to check out Smuggs Notch while we were up there that trip but when we pulled up into the parking lot we seen bare spots and deicided to spend another day at Jay Peak.

Wow, it looked like it had a perfect lip to it. I thought they had it closed today because the snow conditions were rather slow, I was having a hard time clearing the second jump on Turkey Trot tonight. That would be sick though even though I wont be hittin a 60 footer any time soon:)

That explains it, I used to ride only Burton but I've become to develope a passionate hate for their boards and bindings. I used to love them in the early 2000's but I bought their 2007 Shaun Whute a couple years ago and it fell apart on me top sheet was chipping like crazy and after trying a set of Rome bindings I've come to hate Burtons high backs on all of their models.

Showed up around 4:00, unfortunately I missed the weekend pow pow due to my truck being in the shop but to my suprise the snow was still great, nice fresh packed powder everywhere. Anyways just an update on whats going on in the parks. Upper Moores: Same setup, C box, the bonk flat box option than the table top to the random butter box setups and the small flat down butter box. Lower Moores: Same S-Box witht he Hip jump setup. *Tower Trot: Looks like they're starting to rebuild it theres 2 nice gap jumps one where the first hip was after the flat down and another where the mailbox bonk was and they took out the last jump by the lift. Theres plenty of room for them to add some more jibs after a little snowmaking. Rhodo: Same 3 jump line, the last big booter was closed today and they took the rest of the rails out that were in there. I'm assuming a full rebuild is comming soon, it's been awhile. *Progression Park: Rebuilt very nice to match its name. Small low flatbox or small jump option, they took the rainbow box off the roller and put it on the flat set up nicely with the option of the big flat down butter box setup perfect followed by a hip. Jibs are limited right now at Camelback but I think that will change by the end of this week with the cold weather perfect snowmaking conditions to pile up and rebuild. I'll be up there tomarrow morning and report back if they add any other features.

A T6 for a rock board!? You must have alot of money:)
