We changed the fall line of the hill so dramatically with snow its nothing like the old park. We are going to be rebuilding boulder park next. So expect more new things. -Ian-" I went and checked the features but it hasn't been updated since 1/11. If someone was there today or knows what new features are in, can you let me know? Thanks Mike Quote

asoreD Posted January 29, 2007 Author Report Posted January 29, 2007 Looks like they just updated the site.. looks fun Quote
Papasteeze Posted January 29, 2007 Report Posted January 29, 2007 Looks like they just updated the site.. looks fun Freedom is a very sick park right now.. Quote
asoreD Posted January 29, 2007 Author Report Posted January 29, 2007 haha, no worries. I got what you were talking about. Quote
asoreD Posted January 30, 2007 Author Report Posted January 30, 2007 (edited) I made it up there last night. Def a good time, conditions were great and Freedom is looking solid. I like how the park crew is seen raking throughout the night and checking the features... not something you see too often at other parks in PA. One question though... What happen to the features from last year, the barrells, long coffin box at the bottom, rainbow box, c-box...ect? Were they tossed for the new boxes and rails? Not that it matters since the new features are just as good if not better, just wondering... Edited January 30, 2007 by asoreD Quote
Schif Posted January 30, 2007 Report Posted January 30, 2007 One question though... What happen to the features from last year, the barrells, long coffin box at the bottom, rainbow box, c-box...ect? Were they tossed for the new boxes and rails? Not that it matters since the new features are just as good if not better, just wondering... I was kind of wondering about that too. Especially that 40 foot rail at the bottom of the smaller park last year. I only went there twice last year and I just couldn't seemt to clean that thing. There is nothing more frustrating than to get 35 feet on a 40 foot rail. I was kind of hoping to try to conquer that one this year. Quote
Jar3d Posted January 30, 2007 Report Posted January 30, 2007 the old boxes are junked because they were made out of material that wasnt durable.. some of the rails were refurbished and will be put out for later use.. Quote
rideordie7 Posted January 30, 2007 Report Posted January 30, 2007 the old boxes are junked because they were made out of material that wasnt durable.. some of the rails were refurbished and will be put out for later use.. will any staircases be put out this year? Quote
Gurp Posted January 30, 2007 Report Posted January 30, 2007 will any staircases be put out this year? From what i hear, Nope staircases are so last year. Quote
rideordie7 Posted January 30, 2007 Report Posted January 30, 2007 From what i hear, Nope staircases are so last year. i have a confirmed report that they are putting a permanent concrete staircase on Boulder next year. so i guess staircases are so next year too. Quote
Gurp Posted January 30, 2007 Report Posted January 30, 2007 i have a confirmed report that they are putting a permanent concrete staircase on Boulder next year. so i guess staircases are so next year too. really? When i talked to the park crew guy he said they were against staircases cause theyre useless wastes of space and are only there for looks. maybe they changed their minds. Quote

When i talked to the park crew guy he said they were against staircases cause theyre useless wastes of space and are only there for looks. maybe they changed their minds. that's what the dude told us. the 2 new stairs at bear creek are gettin rave reviews. the funny thing is they have the huge jumps on boulder, then they have a gap to a flat rail and flat-down wide box. i think those were a waste of space for an advanced park. but all in all, the parks have been pretty sick and pretty damn fun!!

But dont forget that park was pretty much built for the eat coast team challenge and theyre rebuilding the boulder park. Quote
