My buddies did it in a concrete park after a really bad ice storm. It made for some awesome photos, but also a quick demise to an already well worn pair of skis.

Where is the park? I have been thinking about doing this for awhile. I go by a skate park around Sparta all the time, it has big drop in ramps leading into several rails and it also has a skate halfpipe. The entire thing is covered in this light orange material, I'm not sure what its called but I guess if snow was over it it would be fine. Does the skate park in Ridgewood have a drop in or something like that or would you need a bungee to get speed? There is also a town park I know that has a rebound wall that would make a sick wall ride. Just getting some ideas for next year.

Yeah, I've thought about it but the only good park for it is in my hometown (Windham, ME) and my town are a bunch of faggots and don't open the park unless someone is working to watch over the park and they literally close the park, at certainty hours and months.

yes i have. it was really hard to get speed for the rails and the boxes but we figured out a drop-in and had poles to pull people so it worked out sick
