Favorite Features

[KEVTRON]

Hey guys,

Im the Park Crew Manager up at my local hill, West Mountain in Upstate New York. We are fortunate enough to be under new management this year which means I'm actually getting a budget for the Park, unlike past years. We are looking to have some new features made. I'm just wondering what's everyones favorite features on their hill and if you have some pics to post that would be a huge plus!

We have some regular features you would see at most mountains(DFD, Flatrails, Boxes, ect.) Im looking into getting a longer Flatrail, a decent sized tube rail, and possibly an S-rail. I would appreciate and am open to any other ideas or suggestions! Thanks! And may the snow be forever in your favor.

Well made jumps are my favorite

 

[KEVTRON]

Everyone loves a nice jump! And we are working out the kinks on our 30' jump as I type this. Almost have it how we want it. Im looking more towards rails to be made. Thank you for the positive post!

 

[cheener12]

yea a big tube is always a fun hitmaybe a up flat box?

 

[SDrvpr]

Always have a flat down with enough speed to disaster.

 

[will_powder]

Don't make an s rail imo.

Closeouts seem to be pretty hawt right now, not sure if that would work or not.Otherwise tubes everywhere

 

[caderobinson]

tubes. make unique quarter pipe featers. and i always love a mellow cannon rail.

 

[jordangaebel]

Slow Kink boxes/rails then a flat down, an elbow rail is always fun and closeouts are tight. Also go to other resorts and look what kind of features may be fun to you.

 

[nolovedeepmeta]

My favourite feature is snow

 

[270on420out]

Tubes. all tubes. Big,fat,skinny,small

Single kinked rails are my favorite though i'm not a fan of donkey dicks

a nice flowy jumpline

 

[nolovedeepmeta]

Our hill had this last year, always thought it was neat. Tube dropping into a 40 footer

 

[Rparr]

C rail is really fun.

 

[raymondcabral]

Saw this in another thread, but a cannon box or tube to a tranny/quarter pipe landing

 

[MothaHucker]

Elbow kink rail, like straight flat, diaganol left, straight flat. The one in black park is crazy fun

 

[TACO-DOG.exe]

elbow rails, stair sets, down flat, flat down, wall rides, rainbow rail/box and tap features such as barrels or tires.

 

[hippy.]

a huge quarter pipe wall that you can throw backies onto the top of

 

[Iraq_Lobster]

c- rail, s-rail, tubes, trannies, picnic table, barrels, stalls, rancor park

 

[jamisonmace5]

Some type of flat down, you can disaster or do swaps onto the down part.

 

[JahLiam]

Flat up box, big fat tube that's half buried, and I like that cannon to QP that was mentioned

 

[icculus.]

a simple flat down rail. really fun really simple

 

[Peachbutt]

Barrel/tire taps are fun as hell

 

[SpaghettiWizard]

Saying tubes to reiterate that tubes are fun

 

[RonJeremiah]

maybe get creative with the tranny along with the rails, wedges, etc. Big ol' hips, quarters, side landings on jumps, clean transition to rails and such. I feel like that makes a park really fun and flow well.

 

[John18_6]

Tubes to a long somewhat steep landing so you can future spin out.

 

[DaGreenbird]

I have always enjoyed some stair sets. C boxes, s boxes, and jibs are always fun too. And jumps.

 

[Ender]

Fucking round rails. I'm getting so sick of 6" wide flat bars.

 

[John18_6]

I don't care what anyone says, propane tanks are my favorite things. Surface swaps all day. The one at hyland is amazing, just hit it, and you're hanging in the air for awhile. Over-rotated trying to front 6, that was some major shit eating right there.

 

[Twerk]

Tubes. Tubes everywhere

 

[Yaraelpoof.png]

so I can feel like a pro

 

[RubberSoul]

rails longer than 5 fuckin feet and more than 2 kinks

 

[theabortionator]

A stunt ditch - Mark

I might come shred with you on tuesday

 

[Abu_Hajaar]

A nice step over

 

[mnskier.]

Mailbox rails, Skull Candy pipe/tubes, long mellow flat downs... Not to mention poppy jumps!

 

[twatt_chaurus]

this

 

[The_Polock]

Throw a couple of natural features in there like large log slide or something. They are cool and cheap! Plus wood is easy to maintain.

 

[cheerio]

Smooth sliding tube rails

 

[Squirtle]

Tubes, big fat 30 foot long tubes, great for learning new tricks on. Also handrails, Hubbas/ ledges and flat round rails. Also weird creative things are always fun.

 

[theabortionator]

Put that big corrugated back in.

TUBEZZZZZ

 

[asissle]

Good to here that there giving you a budget! I'm 25 mins from west so I will have to stop is soon. I would love to see anything like an s-rail, rail gaps, and anything that you can get creative with.

 

[JustStartingPark]

Found it

 

[Deforestation]

Is this at pcmr

 

[Substitute]

Wood stuff.

 

[K-Dot.]

A tube that sits parallel to the direction of the park with 4 built up sides so you can either stall or come from the side and slide or just use it as a quarter pipe thing

 

[CashmereCat]

I've always been a fan of flat up flat rails. The B&E destroyed one at Tyrol Basin last year and sessioning it was so much fun

 

[DanielPlainview]

Interesting tap features and lots of DFDs varying in size are always my favorites. Get some tube rails and a little wall ride never hurt anybody. Quality not quantity.

 

[m4ttm4n1]

up flat down boxes or rails

 

[schism]

Make sure your park has progression and flow. Also that there is a separate beginner park to keep gapers out. If you're pretty serious about working in the terrain park, look into cutters camp.

 

[Substitute]

Battleship rails?
