Sick, this sounds fun. I have a question, if we don't sign up will we still be able to hit the features on Kangaroo during when the comp is...tables and jibs?

The rest of the park will be open to everyone during the contest. But since it's free, you should do it. Jonahs has some fun setups planned for it, and there's lots of prizes.

We're gonna set up one feature for the jam and the rest of the park will be open. First couple will be jib features, then we may step it up to big jumps (depending on the talent that shows). I'm open to any suggestions you may wan't to see. Hope you will all show up and throw it down.

nice dude, my only suggestion would be to have it a rail jam and not a box jam......cause its more tech that way....my personal opinion.

With a box, kink or flat or whatever, you will see alot more stuff thrown down, spins on/off/switchups. But with the rail, it will probably be just some 270 offs, not as much ish thrown. Whatever it is, sounds sick, im feelin the free thing too.

okay cool, and boarders murder boxes too......so i say box/rail option, and yes flat down is the best rail jam setup usually.

For starters I would recommend a box rail option at the bottom. Both with kinks and solid lips onto them to allow for disasters and lots of spinning. That way people can hit what they feel more compfortable with (rail of box) and the will box be relativly easy to get onto so it allows for more variation among riders in the tricks thrown. As the season progress and jump/rail session would be perfect. If you set the bottom jump on Ru run up like last year during the D-structure rail jam it would be perfect. Lots of Wu on the lip for tossing up nice floaty tricks. Rail/box options on each side for those days when the jump is too slow or flat light or people aren't feeling the jumping situation. After the rider hit the jump jib/ section the ride out to the wall ride. So it;s a basic 2 hit run which is very easy to judge and see. The wall ride will be sick to hit after stomping the first trick and it encourages riders to land what they throw off the first hit so that they can make the wall ride. I reccomend setting the wall ride up where the rewind station was last year. OK I'm done for now. I'll just tell you the rest of my ideas at Alpine.

yea my life blows right now...between engineering school and work, it is IMPOSSIBLE for me to ski mon-thurs, i can go up friday, but only after my 12pm class. which i did last week, then hit up the boreal night sesh. whether or not i ski sat/sun, depends on how much homework i get done during the week, which last week wasnt' much. but im looking forward to mabey friday afternoon and boreal night sesh, then go up again sunday. but then again, if im here wasting my time here on NS....
