Been looking on line for any sort of blue prints for rails. Does any one know a site that offers this sort of info? I'm not looking for ghetto backyard set ups but legit ski hill specs. Any help would be great.

I don't think most ski hills will use real blueprints when designing their rails. They employ a number of craftsmen and carpenters who have a good understanding of what jibbers will want in a rail.

I'm helping build a park at a small hill and they want something solid to look at. I know enough to design rails to keep snow sliders happy but I need some specs to put together a presentation. If no such thing exists I guess I can wing it and draw them up myself.
