Does anybody who rides up at Schweitz or around here have any ideas of some features we should make for the upcoming season. Or just some feedback in general. Tell us what you think. Post some drawing or whatever.

We just finished the wall ride, 10 high x 20 just wait till you see it. Channel gap is very possible, we usually have one every year, there just wasn't enough snow last year

The hip idea is very possible. We had a really good idea for hip line last year but never go enough snow so this year it might go off. As far as drop boxes... well yah. Picnic tables we have and that will most likely be in the terrain garden with the rest of the little kid, I mean beginner features. What is though out already should be sick guys. once we have the park in full it will rock you world. Also check out the new web site, the link is on schweitzer's web site and we should be getting pictures and video on there soon and it will be updated regularly

so.. anybody roll through this weekend? what did you think considering the lack of snow? I know the wallride was goo untill the tranny got all washed out and flat but it will be better once we can get it on something with a 10 foot tranny or so.

An s box would be sick and a trapazoid step down box or rail would be nice, the jumps this year were really nice though

the landings aren't usaully that flat . With all the snow we have been getting and some other reasons they got that way. We are working on another total rebuild to keep up for the rest of the season. I know it kinda suckd during Stomp Games, but it doesn't help when you lose 2 of your employees and a snow cat all in the week before a big event.

if you want to make shit sick you need to build some bigger shit. Go to the California forum and look at alpines on nicks run. We got like a 65 into an 80 footer. Bigger is Better and ixnay on the flat landings

dude i thought the park this year was really really good. i liked at the beginning with the little boxes and small kink rails those were fun-but later on only the little rainbow box was left. so yea-more flat boxes n stuff like that-thx
