ps: i would advise him to just make a quarter pipe instead, they are more fun and cheaper.

yeah, wood will get destroyed on a public hill. Use a top sheet, or even better make it out of all metal.

i doubt it will ever happen. jasons just really wants to do it but i dont thing gore will supply him with any money since they try to claim 80% of their income is racing. basically once they realize skiing is starting to head a lot towards park, they'll think about new, better stuff

how does one get employed as a park staff worker? do you have to work your way up? do you need a drivers license? is there an age requirement?
