yeah my mountain had a concrete ledge last year and it was cool, like it slid better than metal for some reason which was cool.  then as people kept hitting it you started to see sparks fly and then you looked at the bottom of your skis and went..."wow that is so not worth it".

just hit a rail or a box instead, maybe that will be cool as a stall, but not as a slide

HAHA, this is the worst feature I've ever seen be made.  Honestly who the fuck wants to take hundred dollar skis and ride over concrete.  Put some hdp over it so peopel actually want to hit it (and good luck moving it)

why jib concrete unless you have endless skis being thrown at you from sponsors. i call my friends pussies for not hitting rails on theirs but i mean concrete that will take out an edge.

yeah, thats cool.  but whats the point of the whole kicker thing, if its just gonna fuck your skis over? unless you cover it in snow, but that will be way too hard to upkeep

the point is to offer something new.  If you don't want to tear up our skis, here is a thought...GO AROUND IT.

The top does have a steel coping on it and we are putting a glaze on it, so it should be a little more slidey like a skate park or basketball court. 

I agree if you are worried about your gear (or two front teeth) you may want to steer clear, but if you want to break out the crapper skis, this may be fun to play on.

oh yeah, and we have no plans to move this aroud the hill, thanks for the wish of luck though.

Job? Even if you don't work during the school year you can still make 2000 during the summer...that is enough for a full setup and passes and gas for the season...

and if you work during school you will be fine.

no im sure your parents said they would buy you need skis, but you looked a the sweet yellow naked chick on the red scratches and told them you would never need another pair of skis again, unless they wanted to buy you the old orange/black bc's or elizabeths.

some people spend their money on more things than just ski stuff. such as car/school/rent payments, food, gas, random other things.

not gettin into the argument, but hardly any of these views make sense, and the ones that do are just retarted.
