Sno Mountain Skier Posted February 7, 2007 Report Posted February 7, 2007 It was too windy to hit most of the new features today. Quote
bigdaddyk Posted February 8, 2007 Report Posted February 8, 2007 It was too windy to hit most of the new features today. The wind is really getting to be a pain. I hoped to make an even balance between the NF and blue trails today, but ended up staying mostly in the NF, because of the wind. Quote
xNick11 Posted February 8, 2007 Report Posted February 8, 2007 The wind was fine when I went,and rossi you forgot the FDF box.Its sick,fast for a FDF tho. Quote

xNick11 Posted February 8, 2007 Report Posted February 8, 2007 Its a DFD.thats what I ment to say Quote
riderossi Posted February 8, 2007 Author Report Posted February 8, 2007 yeah i did forget it..oh well. That DFD was supposed to be closed off all night. The park was closed all this morning so everything should be i as good of shape as the wind allows. The zaugg is supposed to be arriving monday, but don't hold your breath on that. They are still planning on putting in a 13 foot pipe, about 200 foot long. Boxes were still nice and sticky when i hit them last. Quote
xNick11 Posted February 9, 2007 Report Posted February 9, 2007 I dont think anything is sticky.Just the S,A-Frame,and flat rail.Other then that everything seems fast to me.The DFD is soooo fast. Quote

You are also hitting it at a different time of the day. Today my friend and i combined got stuck on top of the A-frame, 20 ft table, 20 ft flat box up top. Also the battleship and rainbow at the bottom. I didn't even attempt the S-box today because yesterday i stuck on it and went flying off onto my side/back and pulled a bunch of muscles or something in it. Was the middle section of the battleship holding up tonight without wobbling? It was like a C-saw in the morning, we had to pull it out and drill a couple holes out to get it level. Quote

But umm since your kinda park crew I think you should get some wax and wax the a-frame,and s-box,they really need it.Everything else slides fine for me.Maybe wax your board? Quote
riderossi Posted February 9, 2007 Author Report Posted February 9, 2007 I definitely need a wax, it hasn't been waxed since the beginning of the season but i don't feel like spending money on it. My cast is supposed to come off tomorrow and then i'll be breaking out my new board again so i should be good. Quote
xNick11 Posted February 9, 2007 Report Posted February 9, 2007 Haha sweet. I just usually use rub on wax.It works good enough for me. Quote
poop Posted February 9, 2007 Report Posted February 9, 2007 screw wax.......waste of money on a board thats ganna break regaurdless. Quote
riderossi Posted February 9, 2007 Author Report Posted February 9, 2007 screw wax.......waste of money on a board thats ganna break regaurdless. yeah and why put gas in your car when eventually the engine is going to die on you anyway.. Quote
xNick11 Posted February 9, 2007 Report Posted February 9, 2007 screw wax.......waste of money on a board thats ganna break regaurdless.That was so dumb. Wax has nothing to do with the board breaking. It makes the surface slick so that you go fast on the snow and don't stick. Quote
riderossi Posted February 12, 2007 Author Report Posted February 12, 2007 That's the zaugg sitting in the parking lot, bad picture..i didn't feel like walking all the way over to take a picture. As for the boxes..they are most definitely sticky. I watched so many people stopping ontop of boxes tonight it was ridiculous. Quote
dw2430 Posted February 12, 2007 Report Posted February 12, 2007 That was so dumb. Wax has nothing to do with the board breaking. It makes the surface slick so that you go fast on the snow and don't stick. he never said wax has anything to do with a board breaking, all he said was that its pointless to waste money on wax when snowboards typically break while riding during the year Quote
Sno Mountain Skier Posted February 12, 2007 Report Posted February 12, 2007 I will never hit the battleship thing again. I got stuck on the middle part twice, and my body kept going and now have a really bad bruised hip. It hurts to sit, move, or do anything. Quote
poop Posted February 12, 2007 Report Posted February 12, 2007 (edited) i like how people dont know how to read these days.. do i need to throw in a dick load of context clues or something? stay in school kids. it pays off in the long haul . Edited February 12, 2007 by poop Quote

You're comment was still idiotic at best. Moving on...the boxes were sliding nicely tonight. The battleship was still a little sticky but do-able. The rainbow was a bit stick on the down part, but also good enough to hit. We spent a few minutes cutting out that mound of snow next to the last jump into a makeshift quarter pipe. We only cut a small section and didn't make it fully vertical but it was still fun to mess around on and an extra feature for the park. Quote

Maybe after our snow on Tuesday you can just push most of it over where you plan on making those quarter pipes to act like a half pipe if you still plan on doing that. And every box slides fine for me except the a-frame.Just get speed and try not to stay flat on your snowboard/skis,stay on the back or front edges....it might be harder to do that on a snowboard tho...

poop Posted February 13, 2007 Report Posted February 13, 2007 (edited) your an idiot guy, not my comment. you two hot shots can wax your boards together wednesday night (valentines day) in preporation for the pow we have coming. wax , lol for racers and pipe jocks.

I'm not sure what the Planet guys plan on doing at this point. They have 1 wall pushed already but i don't know where they are getting enough snow for the other side, the season is over in a month anyway. I don't know if the snow we made into a quarter pipe is going to be turned into a quarter or if that snow is just sitting there for the other wall of the pipe. and if you try to stay on your edges on a snowboard you are likely to eat shit.
