Official Big Sky/ Moonlight thread

^god damn everyone is gona be rocking saga this year im glad i didnt get any i know bout 10 kids in town who all got suits
 
i just want a coat, cuz i need taller shit at 6'2" but i cant bring my self to shell out 250 bucks for a coat.
 
swifty has a few things. i think its a down rail, long down rail, side kink tube, and then a colvert pipe. but challenger was so good today i didnt ride through it
 
big sky has a jump down near the base. i don't care for it much though, because you have to skip the first set of rails to hit it
 
They both have small jumps, and the one at moonlight you have to skip a couple rails to hit as well. But moonlight is blowing snow lower down, which is sweet
 
its also only 10-15 feet. theres bigger hits just scattered around the mountain than that.
 
went to moonlight yesterday, woo i forgot how much i love that place this is the first year i don't have a moonlight pass and im kicking my self in the ass it was such a good day up there!
 
Is the coverage getting pretty good at Moonlight yet? I'll be up there tomorrow and was hoping to do some runs on headwaters.
 
yah dude for sure! moonlight is really fun right now, still some pretty good snow off of lone tree too, can't wait to shred again tomorrow
 
for those wanting an update

swifty park as of thursday contained

small down rail. square

longer down rail. square.

down flat. (dfd from last year but the down broke off)

then the flat down lift tower from last year set up as a side kink to the right.

OR about a 20-25 ish? foot stepdown. real poppy and fun.

corrugated tube

OR another jump. 25-30 feet? i would guess. less poppy.

then the "swifty 2.0" park down at the bottom which is pretty much the same as before.

down box, or dfd rail, or down rail all next to each other

into polejam to butterpad thing (snowboarders only) or like a 10 foot jump, or a flat box.

then a quarterpipe with a mailbox on top.

sounds like many more features are a'comin in swifty though
 
thanks! thats good to hear for sure.. i have been spending all my time at moonlight.. soo bad considering my pass is to big sky. gotta get back over there..
 
yall have a good next month or so out there. dislocated my collarbone today, gonna be out for 4-6 weeks
 
whoa. weird coincidence. i heard mike daines got a concussion today too. not a good day at all
 
thanks man. im headed to the orthopedic doc this week and then ill have a better idea of how long its gonna be
 
My name is Alex, I was up filming with shane, cody, and aj. I had a black coat and green pants, pretty sure i've met you before. But yeah, you did a front switch up and then on the two sev out you caught an edge or something and got all flaily in the air. I was standing at the top of the rail, and it looked like you either landed on the hard pack snow with your head first or with your side and then you head. Afterwards you were just asking what had happened a whole bunch, definitely sounded like a concussion. Pretty gnarly.
 
corrugated tube. came off early and caught my edge, slammed on my shoulder.

i was on new park skis that actually have edges and i guess i didnt adapt for that well enough
 
No that thing is deadly to skiers...I tried it once today caught an edge and ski popped off halfway through the rail and I flew about 5 feet....That thing is dangerous.
 
damn dude. Makes me happy that ive stuck to the jumps then. They should move the side kink so i can hit that and jumps too
 
Is it the corrugated tube they had last year? I loved that thing, free foot massage every run through the park.
 
so turns out i donnnt have to wear a sling, and i can ski if i take it easy. i just cant raise my arm above my head or fall on it, or it pops out and then i start tearing the ligaments again. bout 6 weeks till im back up to full i think
