should be seriosly sick. Having pro's filming major movies at Alpine also give's management more incentive in terms of marketing so I would say this weekend probobally helped. It just kind of sucks because if it gets hyped up it will be more crowded and lose that "home mountain" feel.

so everyone thats been saying how its sick the park at squaw is longer , and theyre all on with squallywood, I just have to say props to Johahs, cuz I just skied squaw, i thought there park kinda sucked in general. there jibs other than the roler box sucked, they were short. there jumps kinda sucked. the only legit stuff was the hip which was fun, and the superpipe. I would rather have alpine build nics and have like a "77" foot jump, and close the park 2 weeks earlier. Im not just here to rip on people, but I think alpine did a great job this year, even if they close early

Thanks man, we try our best.

Also, I didn't wan't to scare anybody, but that jump grew to 85' feet the last time we rebuilt it. I'd say most kids hitting it were going 90' easily. So take pride in knowing you hit one of the biggest (public) jumps in the U.S. I had kids telling me that they came up from Mammoth to hit "the big Alpine jump".

Sorry I haven't built any jumps but I just don't have time or staff to deal with more features right now. Maybe I'll try next week when I have more time.
