Update it as the park grows and changes. State what's new and what is setup as of that day.

Currently-

-5' flat rail

-5' up rail

-Propane tank

-Flat box

-Rainbow box
 
As of this morning (Tues Dec. 11) they changed it up a bit. They have the box in the beginning and it's just a flat box now, not going down. It has a small jump on, or urban on from the sides. Next to it is this little round rail. Then it goes to the yellow tube thing again. Then they set up the red rail (Phatman's Rail). It has a jump on so it's like a small flat to down, then urban on from both sides. Finally they still have the rainbow box.

 
propane tank sounds kinda dangerous........... but the park sounds ill, up rails are legit. How much is a lift ticket, or is there a way to get a free one.
 
Thank god you said that. I'm going to have so much fun tomorrow, I'm going to hurt myself until I get those 270 ons and offs. hells yea.
 
Haha, only shitty thing about the box is that yeah the jump on is nice, but it's about as wide as a snowboard (at least today it was). So you're going to have to do 'em from the side, not straight on. I don't know, I really liked the box going down. Whatever, I love the rainbow box though.
 
The straight on take-off is more narrow than it was when it was a down-box?

I'm excited about the candy-cane rail. I'm hoping to learn to slide actual rails tomorrow night.
 
take offs are better off to the side anyway. straight on is laaaame. i'm coming home soon. maybe i will see you guys there.
 
The phatman rail takeoffs from the side are really nice.I was out there on the 11th and the take off was good even wwhen it was pouring
 
Takeoffs need some loving, which is to be expected after the rain.

Rainbow lost its gap.

Candy Cane rail has too small a takeoff. It takes a ton of speed to get on properly.

The red phatman rail looked real good, and the propane tank was still decent (could use a bit more of a takeoff on the front, saw a bunch of people with good speed catch the front of their boards or skis on it)

Current setup though is..

-Flatbox (setup so it's level) or the small 15' candy-cane rail side by side

-Propane Tank

-Red Phatman rail

-Rainbow Box

 
"Park Update, 7 features now in the park, newer features include 2 beginner boxes and the "Candy Cane" rail. Come on down and check it out."

I won't be out tonite. Anyone know what the 2 "beginner boxes" are?
 
basically, you can choose one of two lines now. the first ones been set up for a while. it goes straight box, set up flat. the yellow oil drum in its original place. then the phatman up-down rail with urban from the sides. and last but not least the rainbow box, also in its original place. the other line has the candy cane, which is really low to the ground with no takeoff at all. then there is the short beginner rail set up flat, and the the other beginner rail going up. just like the beginning of the year.
 
whats with all the wankster boarders acting tuff and being real loud just to ride straight onto the flat box and 90 out landing sideways and thinking theyre the shit. there was so many of them i couldnt count.
 
apparently that's a super sweet trick, I wish I could do that...

also that up rail on the side, the small one, has a long flat until the landing, I went pretty fast off of it for the hell of it, and still didnt make it. I snowboarder'd have to be going pretty fast straight on to clear that.
 
As of today, 12/17, the park is still the same setup.

Either candy cane rail or flat box

2 short rails

Tank jib

Red down rail

Rainbow box

The piles are huge along the left side of the park, and there is a lot of snow. The takeoff for the candycane rail got larger and appears good.

They opened Twister today, which is nice, but cover is thin on it, so I expect with any warmer weather, it will need to reclose. Holly is looking pretty set to open.

The powder over on Blackjack was VERY nice this afternoon. :)
 
yea, it was pretty nice today. If I could pull three's easy, it's a good jump, landing and lip... it might be destroyed tomorrow though... and it requires a good bit of speed, since it's the longest distance for the first hit ever there I think. I like it though.
 
Ugh, it'd be awesome if it was in the same place/size as the jump when the park first moved over to that area a bunch of years back.
 
Park chair will be running today.

I'll post a detailed park report tonite after I get home.
 
not the park crew taking it down, just the constant boarders going over it and lack of maintenance... and yea, first knoll to the left.
 
Alright, as of last night...

All jib features were the same, no changes to anything.

Next to the flat box on the left side of the chair, there is a table. It's not too bad, 15-20 footer with a nice, wide, smooth takeoff. It's not big by any means, but for the first jump, on December 19th, I'm certainly not going to complain as it's plenty big enough to play around on.
 
yeah. that jumps pretty sick. i did a misty over it so its not to shabby. =)

they also added a little sewer pipe thingy below the rainbow box. its that weird stuff with ridges.
 
I've slid one of those pipes before and its not as bad as it looks. They look like certain death but no problems.

anybody skiing kb tomorrow night? debating between hv during the day or kb at night.
 
My brother just got back from KB, he says that the set up is now as follows.

-Flat Box

-Barrel Jib

-Candy Cane

-Small Flat Rail

-Small Up rail

-Rainbow Box

-15-20' Kicker

-Urban Rail

-Pipeline Jib (new) after Rainbow

-2 C-boxes (new) -one after Rainbow - one next to Urban Rail

To people going tomorrow... just look for the kid in the green coat and gray pants with no poles acing like a nut and doing too many butters. Drop in and say hey.

 
cool, I will most likely be there tomorrow night.

Most likely I'll be on original style troublemakers or maybe couple year old PE's. Brown Pinstripe pants, olive and tannish jacket, black helmet.
 
Yeah, the setup is as nick stated.

Top to Bottom

-15-20' jump

-flat box

-candy cane rail

-propane tank

-short flat rail

-short up rail

-C-box corving left

-Down Rail

-Rainbow box

-C-Box curving right

-Culvert tubing

I will be at KB this afternoon for a bit, not sure how late I'll be staying. Maybe 'til 6-ish. We'll see.
 
fun night until I walked out of the cafeteria after taking my boots off and my skis were gone. Why would anybody want a beater pair of troublemakers?

I guess they've had a lot of boards stolen this season but no skis yet, lock your gear up.

If anybody sees an old pair of troublemakers ( black/green,175cm with a few stickers) around with beat up, center mounted salomon s810 bindings be sure to give them a beating for me.
 
aww man. That's super gay, right at the end of the day too. I'm going to need to buy an small lock it looks like. I just complimented you on the old schoolness of the skis tonight, what a bummer. I could give off my invaders for cheap if I want to sell them later. If you can't find anything...
 
apparently they closed down early, at noon. even though it doesn't matter too much, I guess there was lightning and heavy winds and rain. There's no snow at my house except for the backyard kicker, not too destroyed. Plus they have alot of manmade snow, and alot of salt, which freezes the snow into ice ontop of the take offs. So I suppose the snow will be in decent conditions along with the 2"+ they got tonight. As long as it's all put back together next thursday night...
 
I rode Xmas eve. Park was still in great shape, everthing was hitable and not smaller in size at all, even the jump was the same.

It was awesome, there was very few people and I could run non-stop park laps and full runs.

Merry Christmas to all!

And Garick, super lame, those hinders are worth more than those old beat TM's and that's not saying much as they're Solly binders. :) People suck. I'm never leaving my skis unattended anymore.
 
Today- 12/31

Candy Cane Rail

Flat box

tiny table

c-box

down rail

rainbow box

2 propane tanks

jump

and the 2 tiny rails

I'm out for a bit due to shoulder dislocation on the rainbow box earlier today.
 
Eh, just normal. It was ride-on, and I didn't pop enough, and m lead ski tip got underneath.
 
I have no idea what could be done with that tower of tires. Holy Snowmaking piles on eagle, also making lots of snow for the jumps. I'd guess there is a good possibility of new tables for this weekend.
 
i would be so happy if they had jumps this weekend, but with the upcoming high temps id imagine that they would leave the snow in those massive piles since they hold up surprisingly well to rain.
 
Agreed with Moses.

I might be at KB tomorrow afternoon with a photo camera, anyone going to be there to be a subject?
