Ya i'm a saskatoon racer and what u need to do is bite the bullet and turn the bunny hill into a big park and steal all the snowboarders from table mountain. and get someone pro to make the ramps and boxes and rails. the park there is so horrible all the time. that table top 2 years ago had the WORST landing. the only people that go there are snowboard nubs that can't do a rail to save their life. also i like the adding more garbage idea lawl

getting rid of it would probably be the best idea, because it sucks

Oh come on dude. What we need to do is exactly what P.A.'s little red did. Make the entire thing a goddam park. I mean, the Vert is there, unlike P.A. and table is just long. the only 2 pitches in its park are a shit 2 foot booter/butter ramp at the top and the inrun to the kicker at the bottem.. .the rest is flat and skating for speed is the only way to hit anything.



Well, that and opening the hill before febuary might help

AMEN BROTHER!

make almost the whole thing a park leave a bunny hill for the nubes and one race course for the silverhairs. This hill is 20 minutes from sask's largest population of skiers and snowboaders ( god knows theres enough of those ) and still manage to lose money. in the good years they have had 85% of the people were riding the park or the SX run... while a handful of fossils arc 4 GS turns just to get back in line- tell me who is bringing the cash to the hill?.

Here's hoping

yup, we take our precious few feet of vertical drop and milk it for all its worth. its lame to someone fortunate enough to live in the mountains, but its still better than nothing at all. It makes us appreciate the mountains that much more when we finally get out there.

I worked at the strap in 03-04 and we had people driving down from battleford to come to our park.. you can totally make a few sick lines with the vert we have... I think those owners went bankrupt tho..

Screw Blackstrap, Table and Mission.  Wapati is where it's at.  They changed a the whole far side of the hill and it's sooooo fun.  I guess it's all who you go with I guess.  I also suppose it doesn't matter as long as it isn't -30 with a windchill.

Agreed. And I love how Wapiti has a Magic Carpet for their park.
