We havent gotten any snow in a while but luckily the hill still has quite a bit of snow. we still have a 3 jump line down chute and another jump pack on contour. Superpark should still be game on, lets hope the they can make a solid jump...

We don't need to blow snow, we were smart enough to blow plenty when the temp were good in Jan, instead of marginal snow in March!

Plus  if things really go south.. we will just rob snow from all the other runs to make SUPERPARK happen!

uh what?
dude, Its not meant to be 60 degrees in the beginning of MArch at the end of the ski season....
therefore, Nubs was plenty prepared. Take a look at the boynes, 3 RUNS OPEN TOTAL.

The problem is that the general public doesn't care to ski this late in michigan, everyone has going to the beach on the mind.  Resorts know this and it is lost revenue to stay open later than they do.  It sucks because all of us would love to be shredding spring park all of march and some of april but that isnt a big enough reason for places to stay open.  Same thing goes with blowing snow, most places in southern MI blow just enough snow in jan/feb to stay open until mid march because they know the crowds will die around then.    Definately sucks!

Sorry for the rant, I'm in a very boring class

the jump is 65ft to the knuckle, it is not quite a step-over style jump but also not quite a step down ether, it's in between.

it's pretty fun though, had a little session on it today.

There was a lot of falling in the actual big air comp. In the actual comp the tricks went,
1st) Ty Aymond, Cork 540 Truck Driver
2nd) Kelly Shaheen Left 9 reverse tail
3rd) Chris Schmidt Rodeo 540

During practice Noah was throwing sick rodeos, switch hits and attempted a double cork. Mike King attempted 2 Kang-flips during the competition and came real close!

Ty tweaked his truck driver so hard.   and stomped the landing.
Props boys for throwing down and stomping some tough landings.
Thanks those you rode hard and threw down
