Alright, so LA has finally left Mammoth. There is food on the
supermarket shelves again, parking spots on the hill again and not so
many children's bodies underneath every jump on the mountain.
It snowed a bunch over the holidays and has been trying to clear up for
us locals ever since, unless its my day off of course, then its
overcast and windy....not really but for the last few
days.....grrrr......
ok so South Park in Mammoth is fully operational, there's the upper
jump, a 40 foot step down, into the triple line, about a 28 - 34 - 25,
but super poppy. The jib line is on too. Main park has its middle
jump up and running, 91 foot to the sweet spot and the bottom jump is
about 48, super smooth and lofty, in a good way......the pipe is rad,
its shape is great and the temps are keeping it perfect........June is
on too, they need more snow, poor bastards, always in the shadows of
Mammoth but always so much better, untouched features, never worked by
the enormous traffic of Mammoth and always chiseled to perfection!!
I also did a mission to Kirkwood, which had the most epic snow, I
couldn't believe it, I could even still keep up with my bros from up
there. They had enough snow to cover the mountain, but not too much to
fill it all in, a gazillion things to dodge, jumps over, under, squeeze
between....you know what I am talking about...
Anyways, there's a quickie update, hope all new years started right and I will keep you all posted....Pip.
