I hope not, that was the best rail jam ever last year. If its set up from the US Open then there's no reason not to have it for the VT Open.

since burton builds it for the us open and anon is sponsoring the vt open i doubt that they'd take it down so it couldn't be used in the vt open.

Except for the fact that the rail jam last year was one of the biggest shit shows of all time. Think about the liability; there were 12 and 13 year old kids sliding boxes tht were like 7 feet above the stairs.

Yeah I just looked at the website and there wasn't any mention of a rail jam

http://www.stratton.com/todo/events/vtopen/index.htm

but I'm sure if the setup is still there that there will still be one anyways like two years ago when it got destroyed that Friday.

Man. i was sooo scared of the stairs last year. and just coming off a lot fo those rails hurt. I hope they have a rail jam or at least something on a few rails. it doesn't need to be XXL.... just bring some of the rails from the other parks, or use a section of the slopestyle course or something.

i concur. i mean people need to accept the risks and ski. if you feel there is stuff you may easily get injured on then dont go for it. i know there is stuff at that rail jami certaintly would not try and hit. Skiing is inherently dangerous.

that setup was so fucking sick. anyone who thinks that its a good idea not to have it setup like that again is retarded. And even though liam makes a good point, dont those kids sign liability wavers for tthe comp before the people enter it?
