This is going to be so dope. It's $40/day for unlimited use from 10a-2p. 3 takeoffs ranging from 10-60ft. Gonna be a huckfest.
Also, if tons of people come, there's a chance it will stay here longer.
From the press release:
Katal Landing Pad Coming to Mammoth Mountain
Mammoth Mountain, CA – Mammoth Mountain
and Katal Innovations have teamed up to bring a Katal Landing Pad to Mammoth
from May 22-31, 2010. The Katal Landing Pad will be open to the public from 10
a.m. to 2 p.m. daily and will cost $40 per day for unlimited use.
Measuring at 50 feet wide by 90 feet long and 5 feet
thick, the Katal Landing Pad covers the entire surface area of a jump after the
takeoff allowing users to attempt new tricks without the consequences of
crashing on an icy landing. Unlike traditional foam pits used for jumping, the
Katal Landing Pad allows users to “ride-out” their landings to more closely
simulate an actual jump landing.
The Katal Landing Pad will be installed on a custom
jump featuring three takeoffs ranging from 10-60 feet. The setup will be
accessible from Face Lift Express. Passes for use of the Katal Landing Pad are
available at Main Lodge Ticket Windows.
Mammoth’s Snowboard and Freeride Ski Teams will be
offering training camps that are open to the public. Enrollment includes
individualized instruction, daily video review and unlimited use of the Katal
Landing Pad.
