we want your input

One way or another we will be doing another rebuild in the not so far future. We want to hear what everyone thinks so far about our early season setup and what everyone would like to see us keep, change or add new all together.

So please take a minute or three and visit our PARK SURVEY and tell us your opinion.

Thanks

Thirtytwo boots signature feature

Once again Thirtytwo has come through big time to outfit parkstaff with the best boots known to man this season. We lifted a print off of the Lashed Boots as inspiration for the 32 signature wallride. Look for the 32 Wall in its usual home at the bottom of the CORE park accessed by the 49ner chairlift.

Taking matters into our own hands


For years and years park builders have talked about how to build a better hip faster and easier. Usually a good hip takes tens of man hours shoveling for something that can't ever be groomed again. It just the nature of good steep hip landings that there is no really good way to fix them once they have be riden and mellow hips that a snowcat can groom really aren't all that fun to ride. Well, after all the years of dreaming we are going to do something about this problem...BOREAL IS BUILDING A HIP CUTTER. We got our hands on a used HPGR17 which with a fair amount of fabricration will become the first ever purpose built hip building/grooming machine. This will allow us to consistently build and maintain hip landings anywhere from 45-75 degrees of pitch. Fabrication will take place this fall so look out for a mid winter launch of the BOREAL HIP CUTTER!

New kidz'x park location...

So far this summer we have been posting all these updates about the new lift and you must be sitting there wondering when are we going to spill the beans on some new park stuff. Well you can't get there from here until we got most of the lift in place so we could start expanding the run to the riders right. The biggest change in the parks for this winter is a result of the new lift going in and the new locations this lets us place two of our park lines and radically change a third(check out my sand castle from the other day). Looking up from the bottom you can see where the new kidz'x park will go on riders right of the Castle Peak Quad. We are so stoked that our littlest park now has a home of it's very own. This will allow us to better focus this park on smaller evolution features without it being in the line of fire from uphill traffic, lazy old pipe riders looking for an easy way down, and in effect being one half of the night park(more on that in a future update!). Kidz'x will have its own gated entry and be spaced out just right for a mellow easy going flow.


Looking down from the start area which is sheltered to up hill traffic by trees. Here you will be able to chill and check out posted information on park safety and how to ride "evolution features" before you drop in. Kidz'x will start off with a jump/jib option, roll into the mini pipe and then continue on with more jump/jib options, maybe a hip or two and some bxcross style features.

The mind never rests....

I'm supposed to be on vacation but I couldn't stop thinking about this upcoming winter and all the cool things we have planned. Just couldn't resist making a sand castle model of how we are going to build out the nightpark. A new 5-6 jump line down the riders right of accelletron for better flow...the superpipe followed by the bowler coaster on the left, qp on the right, dueling hips and a jibbers paradise of boxes/rails and other cool jibbable objects.........
