I think its just too easy, I barely notice the first kink. Its so much easier than any other dfd i have ever hit.

Personal fave: high flat bar in first park

I think it's super fun and you can actually trick on it. It's probably my favourite jib in the park.

I also forgot another wall ride weird box thing in the bonk park and the "house" box. No one really hits those things though. The park crew may put in the S box in the next few days.

Here's some pics of some features

i have no idea what to do on the volcano all i do is hand plants and ball taps. its scary to stall on cuz the damn thing moves...the rest of the park is dope, im loving the rails this year, except that long flat bar in the lower park, the jump onto it is weird, it gives you to much pop for a rail that you have to go fast into. it would be sick if they improved the jump on to it.

soo true. the turbo tube drop would be so sick if the fucking lip wasnt so bad.

i think they need some more simple jibs, some more down bars and shit like that. none of this 100 foot high rainbow boxes and reverse rainbow boxes, 10000 foot long flat boxes and a frame nonsence. sunshines park could be 10 times better jib wise if they really wanted too. the jumps are good tho.

I'll submit the photo, good idea.

The small down rail and the long flat rail are both a little bit too kicky but they're fine. The park is pretty well maintained. You guys should see things in Nova Scotia where I grew up skiing... The long rail pops you normally so you don't really have to ollie at all to get onto it

I think they definitely have enough small stuff in the park. I do wish they had a proper straight flat-bar that was 24 or so feet long though. A rail you can actually spin onto.
