They are not just cutting a pipe at the mountain, they just bought two new Pipe Dragons, A Super Pipe for the Mountain, and a smaller one for the highlands... But that is not it... Sit back and get ready...

They are also in the mist of buying somewhere between 50 to 70 rails and box rails. But from what I hear they are looking at Box rails with lights in them, so at night time they will light up and possible light up as you slide over them.

They are talking as well in making a Mammoth Wall at the highlands.

This year they are trying to become the Biggest Park by double than any other park in the midwest. They will be the Mammoth of the Midwest.

All this with sponsors as well, I know they have talked to Oakley, K2, Armada and Quite a few other to help sponsor the park!

Going to be awasome..

hahahahah. Boyne mt. is so shitty. Their pipe was unrideable last season. The jumps were shitty too. They don't have room for 50 new rails. Not even 10. the park is full as it is. Hopefully they get their shit together though cause it sounds like they're trying.

The superpipe at the mountain will be moved to the front of the hill, along with the terrain park. The earth work is done. It will be serviced by the high-speed lift. New snowmamaking, lighting, and an 18ft zaugg with the 4ft extension piece for making 22ft quarter pipes are going to be happening at the mountain. The rails will go through a rotation so the park wont get stale. The highlands will be getting a 13ft Zaugg plus more rails. The highlands might end up with 30+ rails and there is talk of making a terrain park on the Amys run.

they could have a 45 foot zaugg and they'd still have a 2 foot ledge before the wall.

Boyne...........hakakakaka

I just got an Email from Bittersweet Mountain Resort and it said that bittersweet will be open all summer long next year due to the new snow guns. New to the park this seaon: Loop rail w/ gap at top, A scale replica of Chads gap, and a 65 cliff. This shit is gonna be so damn hot. Just wait until Camp Bittersweetness. When boyne has it set up good, I will ride my pet iguana and sessoin with it.

If that happens to Boyne, do you think they'd consider have the Spring Board meeting there? Or do you think Highlands will still be just as good?

^if it happens to boyne they'll probably do it there. But since it won't happen they probably won't do it. I wish nubs would build some better jumps to go with that pipe.

Im always negative cuz i can be. I already ski at the best place in the midwest, and I still hate it, the midwest sucks, not even worth trying to make boyne good, the terrain on both runs is horrible for a park.

I have heard of some of these announements from Mike Crwaford, who was an MM AFFILIATES and my enployee last year and is now grooming Park w/ Wagner at the Highlands.
I have absolutely no reason to believe that they will be the best park in the MIDWEST though, they have to be US and thats not going to happen, even Crawford himself believes it.

If and Only IF all this stuff happens; will they even compete with our rail stock and wall ride size and most importantly JUMP SIZE. If I ever see them build a 100 foot wide by 80 foot long jump I woud Shit my pants.

GOOD LUCK BOYNE and HIGHLANDS, but you have a big challange ahead of you...one I'm not to worried about you succeeding.

I'm just happy they are FINALLY TRYING. Its a step in the right direction. It may take them another year or two to get it right but progression is the key. I hope to see you ALL there. We should get a newschoolers session going one day this year.. get some runs, drink some beers.. Anyone down? I just bought my freequent skier card today.. 10 bucks off all lift tickets and a week of free skiing! January 2-6. Only 50 bucks. Check it out.

i am so down. me and my friends are renting a condo up at boyne jan 21(i believe). Were gonna get 10 peeps together and go up there and stockpile the booze before we head up and just ski, drink, sleep, ski, drink, sleep, ski. Were just there for 3 days, 2 nights, but its gonna be awesome. If anyones around there during that time, your more than welcome to hook up with us in the park that day and if ur cool then u can come back to our condo and party with us. Its all good with me and im sure none of my friends are going to mind.

he's so negative because he looks good in a pink shirt with the collar popped and his hair slicked back. the attitude goes with the look. you're way behind the times.
