not to put a damper on things at all but i bet teh park doesnt go to its full potential until not this winter but the next. hiring ex jib lab members is definately cool though. park will definately get better.

haha im so glad everyones thinking about hitting jfbb up a few times this year.. last year i dont think we did so hot as fair as sales went, and quite frankly everything sucked, it wasnt a good year for them

but this year... haha this year's gonna be sick beyond recognition.

I believe they sometimes let draufganger bump up and two seasons ago they let one side of a couple of the diamonds bump up, along with floyd's folly which is steep.

But what's the deal with PA and the no gaps to rails? I heard about a ride on and off law?

 

Those guys should be able to "work" around that with their experience...

i've never heard of it being a "law" we've always had gaps to rails and never had any problem. i think alot of it has to do with what the ski areas insurance urges them to do. if they see a problem, they want it fixed. but like i said, i've never heard it being a law. its becoming an industry standard though to do away with the physical gap between the rail and takeoff, and fill the gap with snow making it both gap on or ride on. i hope this makes some sense, cuz i'm not sure if it is. its easier to draw it out that to explain it in words

thats what has been done at blue in the past, and it always ends up being worn down to something far worse than a combination of the two. it turns into a ride on lip, but the lip is actually below the box/rail. they started doing gap ons last year, and the rails that were set up like that never got trashed. thats sick that boulder finally gets some people who know what they are doing in the park. maybe they can have their slopestyle prelims on a real course now?

gotta be more positive dude... i know bc is the shet, but c'mon... I guess that MCkilledCB dude was correct afterall :lol

 

 

Everyone knows that shawn orrechio was Moutnain Creeks terrain park manager for the past few years right?

 

sure do.. the ironic part of this whole announcement is that just last night, i was talking to our oakley/armada rep and he was emphatically encouraging nipples to call BB home for this coming season. This will seal the deal on that!!
