-
yeah dude dunks are sweet. and andy what can we expect soon? please put that downrail back in and build all your jumps like the one in the pipe... please?

i miss the jump in the pipe : (

i disagree from your order of learning spins. its all personal preference. learn both frontside and backside 180's,and depending on what you feel more comfortable with progress into a 3. so for example, you can do both 180s but you feel way more comfortable backside, definetly bs 3 before you fs 3 then. and it hurts way worse when you land 90 degrees facing up the hill because you catch your edge and fall back, ending up with some whiplash/hitting your head. so in reality there is no true order for learning spins. try different things, get comfortable with one, and progress from there. progressing from something your comfortable at will translate to more confidence, which is a huge part of snowboarding. because what good does your lame ass description do for helping someone out. i bet your spins are UGLY if thats how u do them. care to show me your method at work sometime???

i meant the halfpipe jump
-
pop off the lip, turn your head and shoulders first, the rest will follow. prewind a little if you need to. the biggest thing with spins is having enough speed so that you clear the jump and have time in the air to spin.

todays setup sucked. they took out the two best features in blackbear in the last 2 days. the down rail was awesome and the tubing jump was sick, oh well. they put in some jump with no lip, sorta like a butterpad with no gap onto it.
-
blackbear sucks now. they took out the only two rails, now its all boxes, i especially miss the urban down rail. they replaced it with a stupid jump. yesterday the park setup was awesome, now its lacking.
-
i was only up til like 6:30 tonight but when i was there everything was awesome
-
its snowing at my house!
-
nick, i just have to say that is a sick picture
-
no snowmaking in the parks. anyway conditions today were good again. lips and landings stayed good. no crowds definetly one of the best weekends of the year so far despite the warm week.
-
I <3 my 32's. I really dont find them to be big and bulky. i definetly think my friends burtons and dc's are bulkier. proof is when we switch boards theyre bindings are too big.
-
special blend generally runs big
-
its facing straight up the hill so its good for anyone
-
my friend, k2rider on here, rides last years otterstrom. he likes it alot and it holds up well. i'll wait for him to post more details.
-
conditions were awesome today. i rode from about 10-5 and even near the end it was still good. park crew was hard at work. the big jump was perfect, cascade line was nice, and the halfpipe jump is my favorite. they put in and new down box where the bleachers used to be and moved the bleachers in front of the big staircase. i liked the setup of that alot better today, it definetly got a lot of usage. lips were good and landings held up decently for the slush. i'm a big fan of bears park setup right now. the snow is holding up really well and the brown spots are easily avoidable.
-
how about the old big blue battleship? huh, anyone? no but those rails all had their time and place but they have everything that they need now.
-
the jump in the halfpipe was definetly the best they had tonight and one of the better ones they have built. i dont really know why but with the correct speed it was perfect for spinning... great conditions today i dont know how they pulled it off but great work groomers/park crew
-
today the jumps in cascade sucked, big jump was ok, it was rare to find a good lip and there are huge brown spots all over. tough day...but what can you expect from this weather
-
yeah dude you definetly did a good job on the jumps today
-
i believe its the pass that an employee gets to buy another one for $25, then usually sells it to a friend
-
you wear tannish pants? short hair? i think i always talk to you. you dont always telemark do you? anyway the first jump in tubing was perfect today, make them all like that
