Pink Flamingo Camp is a camp that we have been putting on at Perfect North Slopes for the past 3 seasons. It is typically an after the season camp that allows us to build pretty much whatever we want, and then people can come and get some instruction on learning spins and jumps, and sliding rails. Even though this is just a ski site it is open to both skiers and boarders. Typically we have features that range from beginner to help new riders learn, all the way to highly advanced including 50'+ booters.

PFC IV will be at Perfect North Slopes (www.perfectnorth.com) on March 17th and 18th. For $100 you get...

*Lift tickets for both days
*Breakfast & Lunch for both days
*PFC IV T-shirt
*Coaching for your specific skill level of riding
*Access to some of the best Terrain Park Features seen in the Midwest
*A Grab Bag full of goodies from the camp Sponsors

PFC North will be held at Cascade Mountain (www.cascademountain.com) on March 24th and 25th. The price for it is also $100 and you get all of the things above.

If you sign up for both camps you can save $20.

For More info check out the PFC Page @ www.fp32.com

so when we went there tonight.. it was around 10:30 and the gate was closed so we drove on some road that took us to the top of the hill and found a way to walk on the slopes.. we walked to the edge of the steep hill where the 4 person chair is and saw one cat down there and it looked like a big table but i couldnt really make too much out.. it was real icy up top but its supposed to be in the 40s tomrrow so hopefully everything will be nice and soft

just got home from building... and i dont think its going to dissapoint anyone... the gap after its been brought in due to melting is 83 to the knuckle.. hopefully the speed will be there and we wont have to push it in anymore.. the landing of the gap has 3 booters on it so even if we cant get speed its still hitable. couple rail lines on meadows as well.. on the other side we have a couple barrels set up.. one is super gnarly.. like a 7 foot step up bonk.. the step up has the tower box pointed up like a wallride.. channel gap is two 40 foot tables with a catwidth between.. so diagonal is almost 65 feet.. the roller coaster is setup in the channel. double kink has a sick urban setup.. flat box is kinda high and setup flat..

i wish i would have taken pics but its gonna be amazing..

i'm pretty sure everyone has thought of that. every time they always give a bs answer. its just that the meadows is a transistion hill or somethin. tad or trav would know more

seriously though the meadows is useless. there is no difference in steepness between that and farside or backstage. kinda sucks its not a park. plus then it also means all the beginners ride it and it gets stopped a lot

^ thats the reason a transition hill it is mass steeper that farside for sure and chip would rather keep people learning and coming back than just letting us shred both hills all year we dont produce that much income for him and the company. and the best hill for the park by far would be the tubing hill but that brings in more money that skiing does so quit bitching and be thankful for what we have.

on another note pfc was sick

It's now what management wants.... it's the customers that bitch a ton. I bet they got 30 e-mails this weekend just saying "Why can't I ski on the blue chair??" People that don't ski in the park, or that don't like park rats just want to make fast laps on that chair....
