Ski them till the season is done. Never buy Mojo bindings again because they just suck. I wouldn't even recommend look or rossignal bindings. I would highly recommend the 4frnt bindings, marker jesters(or the next year ones with the din up to 10 or 12, forget the name of the binding tho) or wait for the Salomon S series of bindings for next year cause I heard they were sick. As for skis, if you noticed... never buy line again haha.

There was only going to be one of those set up, but ya it's set up as an urban on.
-
Well the setup changed. It's beat compared to what it use to be. Should still be a fun comp tho.
-
Im a huge park rat, but last night at snow it was so worth it to just ride around on the north face. The snow was so nice.
-
Definitely me buddy!
-
They want to take the jumps down for more snow. I don't actually know if they plan on moving the pipe over towards the middle of the slope so that it will fit or what. There will still be the upper park open, and I guess from where the pipe starts to ends will be where the pipe will be, and there will be rails down bottom too? Not really sure on this but its just my guess. I will hopefully know soon on what they plan on doing.

130' wide is going to be cutting it very close. But I guess what they want to do is take the 2 biggest jumps down now and add that to the half pipe, so im sure it will all be moved over into the middle of the trail, just for the mid atlantic. Once thats over, I have no clue what they will end up doing, but I really hope they just take down the whole pipe and build a sick park that is the whole width the trail should be instead of half of the trail. We still have so many rails we can put up, but we can't because of all the snow for the pipe just piled up on the one side of the trail.
-
The setup is going to be sick, nothing will be set up flat. Two obstacles side by side, leading into another two obstacles side by side, quarter pipe or a wall ride at the end. I don't want to give the setup away. Just practice on your down rails, and kink rails kiddies.
-
I'll look into thos for next year too.
-
Ehh flat coping. I hate it too, but I deal with it. You just gotta get use to it, it doesn't slide as nice as the round coping boxes but idn it's alright. A lot of neptunes boxes are flat coping so you can really do much about it.
-
Or you just don't know how to spin slow.
-
Good choice dude. Salomons use to hold up good for me, but now they are just complete trash.
-
Ya im going to be looking into the 4frnt bindings and the marker jesters for next year. I ended up putting my old s810's on there. Only thing I don't like is I had to mount the lifters with them cause I didn't have shorter screws, nor did the shop. The Lifters aren't as bad as I thought they would be, but they take some getting use to. The s810's are definitely a more solid binding then the z10's tho.

Jordan has rode many parks. He knows a good park from a bad park and can tell what's wrong with the park. He gave his view on the park on how to fix it up.

You only don't hit the jumps because you can't. Don't say that it's hard to get speed for them when you see every other person in the park boosting off them. Grow a set and man up and just hit the jump. Their only a good 25-30 feet which is nothing. I can't understand how you can say the rails aren't leaning. More then half of the rails in that park are leaning. You and I both know you did not put enough effort into setting them the one night. You have to take your time and look at the rail at different angles to make sure its straight up and in line with the next feature. Sean, I can only agree with like 2 of your 8 statements. The park has changed a lot since you left. Lots of flow and there are cheese wedges now. Too bad you don't ride anymore. Im like 80% sure that the 22' pipe will not fit comfortably on spike along with the other feature. I agree with Jordan that it should be on its own designated trail. Papa, the 22' Zaugg is in just so you know. I don't know if it was mentioned up top.
-
Most definitely Dom.
-
Hmmm my toe pieces seem to be locked in there pretty tight. It's just my heel pieces that I've always had a problem with. Do you think they will have a recall on them or no?
-
Definitely wait a little longer and get the bridges. I have the walls and their the best all mountain ski I ever rode. They are so stable at high speeds, and when the snow is soft, and on landings for jumps they are perfect. Im sure the bridge will be just a little stiffter and they are i think 5mm wider. Put a nice binding on them and you will love them. I made that mistake with my walls. I have salomon z10s on their and I demolished them.
-
If you read my first post I didn't say you should set anything right now. Wait till we get some more snow to work. Mike will be in soon, and he will help us out too.
-
I've hit a a pretty big quarter pipe a few years ago at BB. I don't think it was 22' but it was it was probably 18-20' and let me tell you, the first couple feet is fine, and then its just straight vert from there. Have fun dropping in lol.
-
I don't see why people would get pissed. I only know of 3 people who ride Sno who can actually ride a 22 foot pipe. Like do you know how high 22 feet is? They only need the pipe for the Revolution Tour.
-
I will be there, don't worry.
-
I might be there raking if im needed, which will be sweet.

Don't put the park bench in the big park it's a small feature, it belongs in the small park. And personally I don't even think the small A-frame or the small table should be in the big park either. Someone good isn't going to want to show their skill on a small feature anyways. Their going to want to show it on something big. The small features for a good person is just something for them to practice on to get comfortable with a new trick. All the small boxes belong on mainline and im sure once there is more snow over there all the small features will be put back in to how it use to be, except with more features. Personally I don't think that the 22' pipe is going to fit nicely on Spike and still have comfortable room to ride. It is going to be taking up 3/4th the space of the whole width of the slope. I think it would just be better to take all that snow and spread it around the trail and set up a ton of features and just have an awesome park. Im sure there is another place to put a 22' pipe besides the main park where half the people will be to worried about the main features in the park rather then the half pipe. The park on Spike has a lot of potential with its wideness, and how long it is. If it wasn't for that pipe going there we would have an awesome park with twice as many features as we have now.
