Heather-Big Boulder Posted December 12, 2006 Report Posted December 12, 2006 I regret to inform everyone that the Park Logic team is no longer involved @ JFBB. Shawn and Julian are two of the most talented people that I have worked with, and have done a tremendous job bringing freestyle terrain here to a new level. Their knowledge, experience, and hard work have been a great asset to JFBB. I would like to assure everyone that our commitment to freestyle terrain has not changed. Our commitment will continue to show throughout the season in our 5 parks and pipe. The park build on Merry Widow was postponed Monday, but will resume Tuesday, with a scheduled opening date of Wednesday @ 3pm. Jesse Boyd GM Jack Frost & Big Boulder
stevePSSC Posted December 12, 2006 Report Posted December 12, 2006 so this is what papa was talking about... by far the worst news ever..
bigdaddyk Posted December 12, 2006 Report Posted December 12, 2006 I guess that stinks for people who like parks, but remember, JFBB was there before them and will be there after them. The world won't stop revolving.

The world won't stop revolving. your right.. i just hope BB stays on track.. the setups and everything now are so SICK i just hope they stay like that.. ParkLogic left but they did leave behind a shitload of sick rails and boxes!! just cross your fingers that BB can stick with it and put up some sick parks still
Jar3d Posted December 12, 2006 Report Posted December 12, 2006 atleast we got a bunch of legit jibs now.. and personaly i didnt like how they set up some of the features compared to the ones at frost
Ride the eastern ice Posted December 12, 2006 Report Posted December 12, 2006 (edited) so this is what papa was talking about...by far the worst news ever.. Yes, But BB still has some talented snowcat peeps and a PAID park crew who are descent people. And we still have the killer rails they made. I'm sorry to see them go, but I guess it is what it is. Good Luck Guys, It was a pleasure having you turn the mountain arround and raise the bar in this area, even if it was for a little bit. Edited December 12, 2006 by Ride the eastern ice
turBon Posted December 12, 2006 Report Posted December 12, 2006 Well, like everyone else is saying, it stinks they are leaving but they have made some nice looking boxes. I was looking forward to see what they were going to do with the boulder park this year.
ParkLogic Posted December 12, 2006 Report Posted December 12, 2006 (edited) For the record, the ParkLogic Crew was 100% committed to building a prominent terrain park program at Big Boulder. Since September we have worked 15 hour days, nearly 7 days per week in order to complete over 25 jibs in time for opening day. We hope everyone enjoys the fruits of our labor and we are dissappointed with this outcome. It was a pleasure working with Jesse, he is passionate about his resorts and really understands the importance of freestyle terrain. The demise of this relationship is directly a result of a lack of understanding, knowledge, expertise and display of jealousy from a key member of the BB team. Its been a pleasure meeting everyone here in PA. We tried our best and on ALL fronts we were on a quick-track to success. We wish everyone a great season and we'll back-up and running in the near future. ParkLogic Myspace Edited December 12, 2006 by ParkLogic
Schif Posted December 12, 2006 Report Posted December 12, 2006 I'm sure it won't be all that bad. ParkLogic definatley would have been a major contributer to JFBB, but whats done is done. I bet the guys there now will want to put together the sickest park on the east coast just to spite them. In that case we benefit. Boulder/Frost have always had great parks, I'm sure this year won't be any different.
jordan Posted December 12, 2006 Report Posted December 12, 2006 This looks like a result from too much change too fast, and people getting cranky. Thats a shame it has to work out like this. From all my years at JFBB, one thing i have learned is that there are so many cool and talented people working there, but a select few get all caught up in any little bit of power they have, and forget the real mission, to run two kickass ski areas.

meggles Posted December 12, 2006 Report Posted December 12, 2006 (edited) wow. well..thanks for all the work youve done already, shame to see you guys go. Edited December 12, 2006 by k2fujative
parkbuilder Posted December 12, 2006 Report Posted December 12, 2006 Woah, who backed out, the bb or logic? and for what reason...
librider Posted December 12, 2006 Report Posted December 12, 2006 Woah, who backed out, the bb or logic? and for what reason... I would also like to know what happened.
jordan Posted December 12, 2006 Report Posted December 12, 2006 I would also like to know what happened. The demise of this relationship is directly a result of a lack of understanding, knowledge, expertise and display of jealousy from a key member of the BB team. Looks like a veteran (i have a good idea who, but i won't name any names) working at BB got tired of shawn and julian calling all the shots, and didnt work well with them, so they just got up and left. I'm assuming here, but that is how it looks to me. Jordan
Kyle Posted December 12, 2006 Report Posted December 12, 2006 damn. i have a house in brier crest woods, which is mile or 2 away from bb, and i was so excited that bb would have amazing jibs and shit this year so i wouldn't have to travel to mt creek or deal with some of the crap boxes that were around. sucks to see you guys go go help out camelback they need some more jibs
meggles Posted December 12, 2006 Report Posted December 12, 2006 yea weve got a frickin ton of park crew guys so i think well be more than aight.. but whats gonna happen with all the events and sponsors and shit? what are jfbb's plans?
ThinkSnow Posted December 12, 2006 Report Posted December 12, 2006 Alright folks you've heard the story, and I'd rather this thread not degrade into speculation and mud-slinging so I'm gonna close this one up. If you have stuff you want to talk about still, please start another thread.
