I sometimes ride the old FOFO. I was there today,the park right now is so weak.

I dont know why they just sit there while Edel and cascades already have pretty good setups.

oh it's really quite dreadful and I suggest everyone to stay very very far away.... it's just an optical illusion that they have any jumps at all

are you serious right now because i though it was sick for fortune. they had a niiccee big 40 footer

its 4 jumps in the line btw, small one first( 15-20 ft) followed by the 40 footer, fthen a 30 footer that the last one im not even sure about its size but it fucking sucks. the first three jump are on the first half of the park the last one is at the very bottom and you need to bomb the whole half of the park to get speed to clear the deck

they have big jumps, but they dont upkeep the park well, and the ladnings are a bit too short and not steep enough. really really big step up for fortune though. edelweiss kills its 100000 times

I was there Friday they never ended up opening the park, looked like that had some legit rail set ups, it was a bluebird day on March break. I donno if they were saving it for the weekend or what but Ev destroy's there park even if it were open.
