You guys are idiots, Chad's gap is really just Pyramid gap shot from a different angle to make it look bigger. And Pyramid is still there, jeez.

I don't think Alta's ski patrol has the authority or the manpower to blow up one small hill(the landing of the gap). But yeah the Kicker got blown up after tanner hit it, but then last year I think it was when some other dudes started that thread and jumped it. So it's still there.

im not really sure just like everyone else in this thread but i think they moved chads gap to CO for safety issues? but either way a few pieces landed in my backyard when they blew it up so im stilll shaping it.

i heard MFM's crew photoshopped pictures of it being blown up to keep people away, and then someone went to go look, and MFM proceeded to beat them up, and then chad himself came out of the mine and ate the skiers
end of story

you've got it all wrong. MFM pulled a cab 10 nose grab over chad's and then to prevent anyone from one upping him, he had the army corp of engineers remove the landing. so now its not chad's gap but chaddy to flatty. rumor has it he shot trainwreck for trying to drop it to flat. or was that mack dawg...

I hit the jump last week. I did a double backflip into a 1080 cork then i managed to go the other way with a bio 360 and cartwheeled my landing.

all wrong.
alta spread rumours that they blew up the gap, but really they just cut down the tree on the landing and now noone can find it.

I had my crew of cameramen and photographers all on me when I did that trick. But for some reason the equipment exploded because it couldn't handle what had just happened.

This is true.
I've been training for a class up at alta and i talked to the guys there and that is what happened. If you look up where chads used to be, there are alot of big bulldozer tracks. You can see the hill where the jump is built usually, and now its just flat afterwards. They also put some deep grooves in the inrun so that no one tries to gap the like 300ft gap to the next downhill area by it. They could be easily filled in if needed though.
It's a bummer but at least pyramid is still around, for now. Apparently they are trying to mow down pyramid too. They also said something about a project they are putting together to survay the area throughout the winter and bulldoze any other gaps that were used over the winter, due once again to liability.
