ive been getting a bunch of PMs about  when things are getting started over there and other stuff, so heres some info...

-program and facility will be opening to the public on Febuary 28th. 
-Copper season pass holders:  100$ pass add on, gets you 5 drop in sessions and the safety session
-normal customers: you will have to attend the safety session, $69, before you can attend a drop in session, $25/2 hours
-if youre sponsored at all look into getting a pro pass. the criteria is very low.
-8 and up can sign up for the camp day, adults too.
-2 hour drop in sessions for public will be held 3 times a night, from 4 to 10 every night
-signing up for a camp day nulls out needing to go to the safety session before going to a drop in session, and attending a camp day gets you 1 free drop in session.
-Copper employees get 50% off everything (better deal than the 100$ add on)
-there will be a US Open party next thursday, the 28th i believe.

facility includes:
-48 foot, 43.5 degree drop in to a three kicker foam pit.  (all very wu-ish, 7 foot high, 5 foot high, 4 foot high)
-15 foot cliff drop to foam pit
-10 foot skatelight drop to foam pit
-indoor 2 rail line
-indoor quarterpipe with log jib
-double bubble skate bowl, one side is 6 foot, other side is 8 foot
-6 foot mini ramo
-3 foot mini ramp
-6 olympic grade stringbed trampolines, 3 of which go into foam pits
-25 foot long tumble track to foam pit
-bungee tramp
-double mini tramp to resimat
-outdoor, 40 foot x 70 foot x 10 foot air bag
-there are plans for a small indoor street skate section, construction has not begun

summer camp info is still being created.  I can tell you that there will be week long sessions starting at the middle of june, running through august, park crew is going to farm snow over to where the medium line is in catalyst and they think they can keep a jib line and a jump or two until late july.  indoor facility will be open year round for both camp and drop-in sessions.  sorry i dont have a ton of info about summer yet, but check the website often, it should be up very very soon.

^yeah.  im told last year after the level 1 shoot they flattened and evened out everything, and at the end of june there was a 10 foot base.  the plan is to shuttle campers to the snow in buses and then hike the jib lines.

everything listed is indoors except the big air bag jump.  the cliff drop, jumps, rails, and quarterpipe are lined with "Snowflex"  a hard-plastic carpet that simulates snow, similar to whats laid down on water ramps in winter park, park city and lake placid.  you can turn, sideslip, set and edge, and butter on the stuff just fine.  these are all ski/snowboard features.  in the bowl pretty much anything is going to be allowed, bikes, skateboards, rollerblades (im not going to say skooters cause i dont want to see it.)

We just finished installing the majority of the snowflex today and I had a chance to ride it through the jib line for a bit. The stuff is awesome even without the silicone/water spray, so with it it's going to be epic. Tomorrow we'll be hitting the big jump and testing it out.

Scooters are not allowed in the skate bowl. Tuesday we officially open for drop ins and Friday is our first full camp day. I'll be coaching for the skiers on Friday, so if anyone want's to come out it's going to be a sick sesh!

do you have to do the safety session thing, or can you just do the 2 hour drop in for 25 bucks?

Yep, Jon.

And to the post above. Yes, anyone and everyone, Tanner Hall and Travis Rice included, has to do the One Hit Wonder safety session. You are then free to go anytime you want after that for the rest of the year. Alternatively, as I beleive was already mentioned, if you attend a full coach day you are then eligible to skip the safety session and can come in for drop in sessions after that.
