The Spring Mini

So, according to Breck's website, Spring Massive slope is going to be in Park Lane.  Anyone else think that is pretty weak?  If they're going to be giving out ~$5,000 ($15,000 purse for the weekend, so I assume about 5,000 for slope) they should at least put it on a course that allows people to actually compete.   That's kinda like having the PGA tour on a mini-golf course, don't ya think?.

ok it'd be more like a par 3 course, cause you still get to swing but you don't get to bring out the driver, if you know what I'm sayin.

That doesn't sound right at all.  Maybe they are designing a course with 9 hits and rails in between...all 25 feet.

if its through all of park lane that would be awesome, you could get like 12 hits and have so many options.

rail jam is in freeway on the bottom rails and the shit they have next to the halfpipe. spring massive apparently is starting at the lone ranger jump on the right after the up rail...

So is Breck retarded or did they just decide that they hate the locals? Can't wait to see people huck 10s on the 20-30 foot hits at the bottom.

Why pay $50 when you can get a concussion for free?

seems pricey. at least the rail jam is a benefit. but breck can't afford to bring down the price for the one comp they do a year?
