i dont tihnk we are supposed to get anything anymore

they better take it. if they dont i will steal it while you are gone. how big is it?

have you ever been there? looks decent to me. 1500 vert? thats more than anything in PA. it looks like the mountain on the left is newer and a good place for expansion and it already has "two of the most challenging trails in the east". haha.

mine is 100% homemade. its kinda sketchy but it works. i need a power washer to make it more legit but it works okay with just an air compressor. if i had money i would buy one but college will prevent you from having any extra cash..

what did you use to make your snowgun?

he said its about 30 ft. now. they want it to be around 50. having a big air/best trick on a 30 foot jump isnt really that "big"...

same here... used an old 1/4 pipe from skating. works rather well.

holy sketchy set-up and super steep lip. looks fun. haha.

it cost a little around $3000 for the roll of carpet and shipping. and it is pretty sweet. it slides pretty nice once it is wet down and is great for all the summer rail sessions that we had. he doesnt have sand-filled though... at least i dont think so

Boyer told me its going to be ont he middle jump, which is the second one i'm guessing, the same as last year. he said that they are going to try to make it longer than it is now. I could go across the room and ask him but i'm too lazy. when i get my ass up and find out what they are doing for sure i will let somebody know.

that would be nice

its closed all week for snowmaking and reshaping. everything is going to be different. it should be open Friday, or Saturday at the latest.

you should def go this weekend.... since you punked out on Sunday!

not to mention, we live on the Ice Coast, specifically in PA. its the way it is.

they are blowing in the park right now. today when i was up i checked it out and everything is gone, and everything is flattened. its good that they are going to use the crappy ice/snow that they had as the base and are blowign a ton of new snow ontop of it... 4 more days until it's open!

but its a good way to fine tune your skills and improve. its not for everybody, but if you like it, then do it. if you dont like it, then dont. i think this topic has been discussed too many times lately and its getting repetitive...

yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeah! http://headlines.accuweather.com/news-stor...ler=0&article=3

i hope there is no table top. that just encourages kids to roll right over the lip. at least with the booters if they try something stupid like they they will fall 6 feet to a flat landing. then they never do it again. thats the whole reason why the park crue is building jumps like that... so they dont get wrecked as easily like the ones from last year

yeah he's a good guy and knows what he is doing... especially when it comes to the park.

i was hating 100% on the coaches. some of the coaches at Blue need to have respect for other people on the mountain and not think that it is only theirs and they can do waht they want. talking behind people's backs and telling your kids to go mess up the park on purpose is a little immature,arrogant, and rediculous in my opinion... and i think its time for them to grow up and realize that the race team is not the only thing going on at Blue anymore.

can we try to keep on topic here and talk about Freeriders instead of who hates who? thanks. YAY FOR FREERIDERS! The kids are learning quickly. its awesome

its the first year for the program.. so there obviously arent products YET. why does everybody compare it to the success of the race program? i highly doubt that they started with 70 kids.

the only problem with the rails/boxes that Bear has is that they are too unique. try switching up on the u-box... not gonna happen. and i'm gonna disagree with the better beginner park too. but the jumps at Bear are better... right now... even though everybody that i talked to that skied bear in the last couple of days said that it was beat. i hope that both parks keep pushing each other to go bigger and better
