avalanches? I have some remarkable experiences with them, but I fail to see what they have to do with the park.

i think he means to employ explosives to keep takeoffs and landings free of "those that don't belong"

big jumps wit long landings that match the trajectory of the jump. creative rail set-ups
OK, SERIOUSLY:
BIGGEST THING!: The pipe. It is tiny IMO(talking about the real pipe, not the mini pipe which nobody could ever use). It is so small that by the time you start actually being on the part that is sraight up you are already in the air it seems like. With bigger walls(built up over summer is easiest) you can get bigger air easier and make it so that we can actually get some tricks down. Qualmies pipe is better, which is sad.
SECOND: Remember when the pro line was actually big in 07/08? Lets have some more of that, not the tiny jumps we had at the end of this year. We have a long landing for the waterfall, and a longg landing for the Junks jump, so we should be making those fairly big. What I really want back is the kicker that was a downsized version of the Such is Life kicker. That was sick. Since we have little jumps at the top and more on that side run, we need to have actually big jumps in the pro line. I put in some videos of the 08 park that kind of show what I am talking about.
Also like people are saying nobody uses that mini pipe, which looks like it might have taken some time, so maby use that space for boxes and rails?

Ok I need to babble a bit more with some ideas!
For the top of the park, maby take the right line and make it 3 or 4 jumps that are a bit bigger than they were this year. The middle line I guess was fine for people learing(although it was too small to do anything off of).. and the right line was a joke. We should make that a pure rail and box line I think. For the first hit of the right line a cannon box(obviously not a huge one) would be pretty cool since everybody can see it at the top of the park.
For the left line on the lower half of the park, no mini pipe, and maby some bigger versions of the jumps that you go off and land on the side slope, they were too small to try much on IMO. Other than those, maby some rails or boxes mixed in with the rollers? Honestly I don't do many jibs so idc much about over there, but it has potential.
OK, pro line! I think that 08 was better than 09 like I said. With the XXL sign and the name, we need to actually make it big. Everybody saying they liked the waterfall at the end of the year because it was easy to learn on could be doing that same thing on the upper right line if we slightly upsized it. I like the waterfall being a kicker with a fairly large gap so a good amount of air time best. HERE is what I think we could do: After the Waterfall, we could have this years second and third jump up(but bigger, and keep Junks a big kicker and the second maby not much lip?) BUT have that run that goes left have a good jump on it that you choose to either go that way or to this years second and third jump, and especially have that extra big kicker at the bottom we had in 07/08.
For the pipe, bigger walls. I would say steeper slope too, but I know that is just too hard to do. a few more feet of the straight up part would mean we could get some true air and actually have people going big in the Stevens pipe.
Last thing: that quarter pipe idea is great. If we could get one good sized quarter pipe(one that is much bigger than the average half pipe) that we could get some big air and know we had a good landing on, that would be epic. I think it would fit to skiers left of where that big jump at the bottom was in 08(and hopefully will be in 2010 =D ).
Maby if some of this was partly built up with dirt before snowfall than we could have a good park early in the year, too. Hopefully next years park is the best Stevens has had so far!
