Everything was pretty good today, except park crew took a while to get everything open. I guess they did a rebuild last night or just blew a lot of snow cause none of the rails and lips they were all just mounds to start.

rebuild for usasa or whatever.

Black Bears new park is sick. Too bad it was soo icy by the time they opened up the gates. They changed the new hit on cascade and made it way way less poppy. Haha I didnt know that until i overshot the fuck of it. So many people their yesterday. I got cut off on the first hit plenty of times, way to many close calls.

yesterday was a clusterfuck...it was scary to drop for anything requiring speed becuase there was always some fuck tard who just loves to air off the lip of the rails right in front of somebody about to hit it or my favorite was the family picnic in between the knuckle of the first jump and the tree bonk/ride these people seriously were sitting down eating sandwhichs..its really to bad the snow was too heavy to spray with

haha i was literally 5 feet away from the beginning of the jump when a gapper on the left side quick cuts over to the right side. Right when im about to yell at him, he apologizes and says how he was so sorry and that he was trying to get to his daughter. That instantly made me feel like a dick haha

So was anyone riding Sunday probably around 11 or so when a boarder got wrecked on the second hit in tubing, I saw it from the lift, he landed straight on his back and was screaming soooo loud I thought he broke his back. Just wondering if anyone else saw this or knew what happened to him, he was gone by the time I got back down to the lift.

who else thinks there needs to be a rebuild on cascade? it is so empty and it has no flow. Park crew needs to go into a rebuild with the mind set like they do with black bear because they always try and make cascade so BIG but it turns out being shit...just put in lines that flow and that people will like and it will be a goood park. black bear has had a decent park all year as with cascade it has be shit all year...there needs to be something done

i dont know why everybody likes black bear.. i HATE It right now.. Maybe its just because i went on the only two days when the snow was really slow.. but i just waxed my board and i still couldn't get any speed to even get close to the nuckle on the second jump... the first jump on the right is money. so much fun. but i didn't see a single person get over the knuckle on the second one.. Maybe it'll be better once the snow gets faster.. but still i hate it.. plus the two top rails with there landings super steep. oh and i also couldnt get any speed for the freaking up rail... aghh!!

 

and i actually really like cascade right now. haha! well okay i like the line of the DFD the teardrop then the QP and the wallride... but i dont like the lego block. and the second jump is weird...

Yeah if you dont land the 1st hits in cascade well, its hard to clear the knuckle on the second hits. But i still the jumps are sweet, awesome steep landings. The only thing i dont like is the up rail at the bottom of it, i think its too long for an up rail. If it was shorter and steeper it would be cooler.

 

And yeah im not a big fan of the butter pad. I think it would be more fun if it was mellow.

 

Oh and i believe its been over 3 weeks since someone has touched that "tree bonk". The lip is a good 2 feet away from the tree, making it impossible to bonk it. Please make it fun again :D

just got back. Sweeeet snow. a little slow in the morning. wallride was awesome in the early morning and then got beat. 1st jump in cascade was sick for spins. 1st tubing jump was nice for 5's. too slow to spin the last hit in tubing. Didn't hit black bear too much. Didn't seem too good

Cascade is sicker than smallpox. How can you not have fun on cascade. Tree transfer then nollie pop the lego knuckle then cut over into tear drop then staircase rail then qp then wallride. I love cascade and bottom urban rail is ssssssweet

If you were given the chance to design the layout, what would it be? J/W

 

umm well i would keep the first jump...add another jump where the butter pad is...cheese wedge/step down...that rolls into a third jump...to a fourth jump right at the beginning of tubing so you can ride right into the fifth and sixth jump... each jump would get progressively bigger...now for the other side i would prob put the picnic table off the cliff slanted up a little with the 420 box as a down box as the landing...(so a A frame box with a 5 or so ft gap between the up and down...then keep the down flat down box but alongside or it put a nice long urban down rail...keep the smurf...put some other feature next to it also...then to the staircase...then the quarter pipe but add some stall bar at the top or bonk of some kind. thats my idea for cascade in a thought time of 2min
