Park Crue

The DFD SBox is gonna be recycled. Probablamente a flat down SBox & an Sbox. We're thinking of taking some of our golden Oldie rails out of retirement. Suggestions please..

Dan, the feedback I've had on that rail is that the down part is too quick, and that the down to flat kink could have been mellower or even curved, because frontsiding/boardsliding it is sketchy. Also that the flat section is too short. Maybe just redoing it to an up,flat down rail might be the way to go. I think discussing this stuff is good for the soul. And also we want every feature to be as good as can be.

U lookin a gift horse in the mouth?

Are you the guy who is super proficient in ghetto speak? You made me laugh. At the beginning of the season, come to the Park Crue shack and ask for me[Keith]. I will hook you up with a day pass. It kind of already is. It rides pretty good, but I think the down should have been a lot mellower and longer..I have to go take a good look at it again.

Scratch that about gapping on to a lower box from the slide. That kink is too sharp to boardslide on. Mav be we should convert that feature into a down box !!!

Doug, it should read Crackerbarrel 2005-2007 Always Remembered By The Booter Mountain Jibhonks and unsuspecting Noobs.

Dan, When you come around the first corner, we are setting up a hip on the outside. This will aid in making the turn and will set you up for a sweet jump line on skiers left. On skiers right we are setting up the slide, swingset and bus. The slide is going to be slide to gap on lower flat box. We will set up the swingset as before but way to the right. The bus is to be converted to a butter box/wall ride. All in all, not a bad combo. Also specially for the 2 plankers, we are making a 60' straight rail [3" pipe] and other straight, narrower jibs. If any of you have ideas, please let us know. We are committed to providing everyone with a great terrain park this year.

It is a down flat down !! And the cement mixer is going to be set up in lower Sidewinder [snocross Trail] after the last of the S turns on the final straight before Shuttle. There will be other jibs there too. We are going to do some earthwork and set it on a platform where its dead flat. Oh, and the crackerbarrell has been retired.

What's up you bunch of whiners ! JK !! Well it's that time again. All I can say is that we have been listening to you and a thousand other opinions, and after taking everything into consideration, we think we are gonna get it hellagood this year. Pray for cold. Park Crue is going to be very busy this year. Anybody interested in joining our team, please email me at keithesmail@yahoo.com. Be seeing you.

Hey People, Nice to see you Jib Stuntas are still jonesing for more mayhem !! I have some sad news. Blue will not have a rail jam in this month. We cannot put this together at this time. Next season will be here soon, so I wish all you a happy and fruitful summer. Anybody going to New Zealand this summer?? Keep it real Boys & girls. Keith.

There is an up to down Butter box set up . which leads to 2 down flat down rails [side by side.] One of the rails is 4" and the other is 8" wide. The wider rail is shorter and more technical. You kids will def have some fun tonite. Sidewinder and the other parks will be open all weekend. Sidewinder will be closed on Sunday for the Slopestyle Championship, but will reopen as soon as the contest is over.

Those steps were supposed to be for the DFD staicase that went MIA. The rails for the jam are special order... C U there ??
