Just wanted to let everyone know that we will still be having the rail jam on Saturday 10/27. We have been working on setting up almost 4000 square feet of tarps over most of the park and viewing areas. Bo the weather.com and accuweather.com forcast the rain to end by tomorrow afternoon anyway. Actually it looks like good weather for the competition, not too cold and not too warm.

So come on out and have some fun! Bring a chair along with if you are not competing so you can have a seat by the campfire.

Remember that www.twelve60.com has all the details!

Elmers glue and popsicle sticks along with some blood, sweat, and tears...



Really though its an astro turf like material that you slide on. Two runs of it side by side. The right side has interchangeable features, either an aframe rail or flat 16' single coping rail. The left side is a lovely flat down box.

sick... my friend bought turf n we put it on a hill and build a rail it is sick

Yes, it has officially stopped raining here at Park 1260. So c'mon out and have some fun! Practice starts at 5pm and the comp starts at 7pm.

A little edit from Saturday's Monster Rail Jam.

Nice job! I have had zero time to even upload my footage.

Noticed you got some of the hotspots where the lights were as well. I think doing a whitebalance can help correct this, somewhat anyway... I'm gonna try it next time.

I didn't think to white balance at night. I have only done that during daylight hours. I got a lot to learn with moving stuff around after the music is added. It is a pain in the ass to figure out how to move clips to the beat of the music, to many gaps get created, I somehow chopped the song and it repeats 3 times in the middle like a broken record! hahahah anyways nips made his first edit and that was mine.

Totally legit..Nipples....the snowflex really slides well..

just posted a few pics at www.twelve60.com, more to come!
