they're hoping to have their park up and running by jan 31st,   They have a budget for rails and what not this year.  At the end of last season they created a committee to design the park, by having various riders submit park designs and then vote on them.  Unfortunately they just bought the rails without the input of the riders.

They have a good base on the park run now, but the people who maintain the park think they need double of what they have now, so thats why it's taking so long to get the park up and running

the flat down box's landing is always fucked right up... and i havn't seen anything new yet, all the feature are the same as last year.

the park is always in terrible shape and i'm quickly loosing faith in them.

Some people live around there and go to school 5 days a week? Where else would you ski when you are craving a Wednesday night session? Driving to Blue is a bit rediculous for a couple hours of night riding.

i went last night. it was alright, but absolute shit compared to other places in ontario.
they had a tiny step up, then a like 25 foot jump that was impossible to clear, then another random jump or flatdown box, then the choice of a barrel bonk (tiny) or a decent up down rail. the up down rail is actually pretty fun, just the take off is kinda fucked.
and i would never go on weekends, it was just for the night, cuz its the only place close
