from the look of him he just looked like some kid that didnt really know what he was doing. If im not mistake i was the snowboarder who yelled down to you saying that he had overshot the jump.. ill be there friday with my skiis btw
i know some of the ski patrols and they were told 2 broken wrists, severe concussion, broken back and a fractured skull. i was standing on the knuckle closing off the jump and i could hear him screaming from there. suuuucks for him
that accident with that kid sounds awful, i hope he's alright.
On a side note i went uup today and it was pretty good. None of my friends ski park so i only got a couple laps in but everything looked decent. I was dissapointed with the lack of rail features on the northside but there hasnt been much so its very understandable.
All in all good day except for me loosing my wallet and phone....FUUCCKK
haha ya i was on the knuckle telling them to turn away when they ripped through. on kid backslapped when he landed and barely avoided hitting the injured kid. talked with their dad when he came riding behind and he was just some clueless guy didnt even understand what they did wrong
Yeah $15 and you get them at " Chalet de Voyageur" at Customer service. When you are at the bottom of the mini gondala that takes you to the real lifts from the parking lot it is the building on the right that is white with a black roof.
^stop it with all of your shameless sponson mentions andrew, oh wait ur not sponsored... The park is pretty sick though, these jumps are fuckin massive.
no offence dude but i think your measurements are a little off. None of those jumps were more than 60ft, and i think 60 is even pushing it a little. 55ft maybe? but other than that the jumps are soooo much fun, first jump is so mellow, second's lip is awesome and shoots you sooooo high, and the thirds knuckle is death so dont case haha. Wasnt very impressed with the jibs but im sure they will get better later in the season. Cant wait till this park in the spring
I'm off about 5 ft on each according to the park crew:
1st 55ft from lip to end of knuckle
2nd 50ft,
3rd 65ft, but they are going to change up the landing supposedly and make it more smooth instead of flat then right to steep to avoid those gnarly cases, making the jump smaller.
We have a small jib line beside the jumps along with a few side hits on the top portion.
North Park has a full update that I will get some photos this weekend but it's a line of a: jump, then like a big up box, then a choice of either a flat-down or battleship box. After that you got a line of 3 jumps. Still Southside is where it is at.
damn i missed that, Ill be there saturday and sunday. not sure if ill be boarding or skiing. look for me in purple jacket with yellow smiths
names andrew
yeah i went up yesterday and saw that they had the largest kickers closed in the southpark. they reshaped em and they are DISCUSTINGLY MONSTROUS! scary big
