Just seeing who remembers this comp from last year?

I heard that this year the comp will have big$$$ for competitors and sick set-ups for winner.

Does any body know anything about this?

I don't think I can say anything else than I have never seen anybody work so hard on an event that will help freestyle skiing in Canada and Grass- Roots Athletes across Western Canad more than Brian Coles. 

This guy has worked on this event since last May and it will be one of the best events of the year in Western Canada other than WSI. 

Be sure to put this event on your calendars for 2007.

the first one (2004?) was at hemlock.

LOTP 2 was at manning, and as far as i know LOTP 2007 will also be held at manning (because manning is sick, and while hemlock has been purchased, i can't see it opening and being safe at the same time, because the chairs have been condemned to the best of my knowledge).

It was at Hemlock 2 years ago. This will be the 2nd year at Manning Park.

Well it was an estimate. Although it does take me about 2 hours with no traffic from Van.
