OK lets stop praising this marketing director we have established he doesnt build the jumps no matter how great his intentions are higher a good crew...
i know mwx wasnt a public jump but is that an excuse to build a real shitty one YES I was there...
AND again i was commenting on the park when it was moved over by tubing instead of the bottom of the main run...it didnt improve then either...and im sayin i will give them a chance this year on the new jump run..i was just saying its taken quite a while to get it right assuming they even have...and dont you worry about me I obviously know what Im talkin about cuz i go to snow trails instread of Mad River.

To be honest i just want someone who works at mad river to come on here and read how we think they are trash and actually step up and do sumthin about it..im not tryin to flame n e one just help mad river and ppl like you or those close who obviously will go there.
Im not sayin its all bad they have had some decent rails(though 90% are 12 boxes) but they cant build a damn jump
PLZ PLZ PLZ mad river hire someone to build ur jumps.

yeah dude i kno wut ur sayin.. i live like 50 min. away from there and im only 15 so i cant do anything about it.. the thing is, is that snow trails has the "ohio freestyle" team helpin out all the time tellin snow trails wut to build.. snow trails used to suck like mad river untill these guys stepped in.. we need sumthin like that at mrm too

Yea OF def helped out alot that first hit on outer limits used to be quality though!! Great inrun for speed...I was just at mad river the other night and idk wasnt to impressed. Real akward set up just randomn shit everywhere. And the two jumps in the new jump line are hardly worth treckin to.
The first hit is a joke and the second was inconstent and sloppy at least thursfay night it was!! Not bad though they improved just not impressed the need to move some things around the give the park some flow you cant really link anything
And all the jumps in the park were 5 or 10' what is that all about still building?

^ i hope they aren't "still building" snow should definately not be an issue... seeing as SnowTrails and PNS have huge jump lines of 3 hits or more. And the MWX hit last year was the worst hit on the "tour". It was pretty much a skier cross hit, with ZERO pop. HAHA, and the worst part is that JD fag salted the landing. I get so pissed thinkin about him.

hahaha yea i was more or less bein sarcastic, seriously idk if u guys have seen it but its sad they have like 3 jumps 2 10 footers(bein generous). and maybe a 5 footer.
This almighty new jumpline is no where near the park so you cant link rails, it has a 15 foot horribly built jump on top and a shitty terrible 2nd hit that measures id say 20 ft!! Place is a joke!!

^ or rails. when i was there, the rails were all leaning one way or the other. Some rails even leaned two different ways. like there 4 kink or whatever. the first section leaned to the right, and the other parts leaned to the left.

^ yeah. but cant deny the fact that they do have a couple nice rails there. that S and Y rail were tight. S box woulda been fun if it wasnt burried in snow.

"why are you salting the landing JD?"
"Because i went to Windell's, and they salt the landings there"
"But its January!"

"Yeah... i don't want it to get bombed out."
"Dude... its like 60 degrees on Mt. hood in the summer. Right now its 20 degrees, nightime, and January.."
And the best part is how he claimed the jump. Wrote his name and all that BS all over it. i would definately NOT claim such a horrible jump.
