Anyone been out yet? Whats the word... conditions... jibs?

 

[skiP.E.I.]

We've coerced the media to keep people away because it's so epic.

 

[d-wiz]

[aoe]

Forecast for the weekend looks hopeful.I heard the Newfie Bullet is broken "extensively"

 

[d-wiz]

I am bringing the snow back with me. It will arrive on January 11th.

 

[skiP.E.I.]

Cruiser and Jigger were open and became very icy. The park should be open by the weekend, we put up a new flat box and new flat bar, set up as a down rail today. I imagine they will start making snow on more runs soon, but I wouldn't bother making a long trip out unless it storms between now and the weekend.

 

[skiP.E.I.]

Park is now on the go

 

[d-wiz]

Whats the set up?

 

[skiP.E.I.]

currently, the park set up is:Large table with nothing built on it yeta second table with a large pile of snow for a jumpThird table with a jump set that needs tweaking, and a very nice new flat boxDown rail on the left which is in limbo since it is apparently made of really soft metalNext on the left is the old C box, ride on, followed by a very short battle ship box or rainbow box option, both with very flat landingsOn the right is a pretty good jump set, I would say 15 and 25 feet At the bottom is a wall ride set up in kind of a hip fashion.

Wednesday morning pre class pow slash was sick!
High speed is on the go, with Musgrave and tower 16 open on that side, and Bonavista, Autobahn, etc. accessible via the struggle.

Is the snow holding up? Heading Friday. Hows the park??

 

[skiP.E.I.]

Yay! RAIN! The park has a very nice flat box and down rail. There is a 3 jump line which is small, but fun. The landing of the third and largest jump is a bit flat.

 

[skiP.E.I.]

Pow! Sucks having to spend all day doing flash animations.

 

[skiP.E.I.]

About 10-15 cm between yesterday and today, but it changed to weird mist halfway through today that made all the snow really heavy.

 

[d-wiz]

Snow getting any better? Heading out this weekend!!

 

[skiP.E.I.]

Good right now. Weekend was so fun, but foggy. Hate school in the winter.

 

[skiP.E.I.]

Also this weekend there is a group of 180 people coming from Europe. I get to teach their children! wooo!
