I think that snowflexes jump is bigger than any indoor jump anywhere. Ive seen several videos of doubles off of the big jump there. The landing is so long that people can send it really far and big.

yeah the snowflex park in lynchburg VA is open and has been open since last august. its pretty sick. the jump is perfect and a super long landing so it can be a 20 foot jump or a 50 foot jump, whatever you want. there are some pretty cool rails and its definitely a lot of fun. i live about an hour away and will be going down there all summer.

is the landing soft or does it beat you up and rip you to shreads when you bail?

Snogression recently just opened here in good ol' slc. Its got a 12ft roll-in ramp that you get towed in with a rope on and you hit a decent sized kicker into a foam pit. Its got 2 tramps, one of which I believe (or both) go into the foam pit. Also, the owner is working hard to get a skatepark in there. Its going to be soo awesome.

Jea Theron, thanks for spreading the stoke! Couple things to clear up though, we use a one-of-a-kind propulsion system known as Hyperdrive for the ramp, not a rope, haha. It allows us to adjust the speed according to experience and ramp size (yes it is adjustable!), and lets the rider control the launch. Also we have 3 string-bed trampolines, 2 of which have access to the foam pits. Plans for the future include a separate drop-in with a interchangeable rail section, mini-ramp, and more!

thats the best video i know of from liberty. forgive the fact that its us gay snowlerbladers but it gives you the best idea of what is there. the jumps are super nice there is 2" of padding under the snoflex so if you bail its a soft landing. great place to train just make sure to dress right long sleeves and tuck that shit in. only bad part is it is a christian college so there are no bar's.

For sure man. Kevin is a boss, and Snogression is off the hook. Definitely recommend it to anyone that lives in SLC or happens to be passing through.

its amazing just cover up your skin from carpet burn....its generally softer then most snow conditions.

Its a rope tow so you can lap for days.

Worse part is its 90+ degrees in the summer, so having your skin covered & wearing a helmet just plain sucks.

Generally lapping the park for 2 hours in 90+ temps on the rope, will have you wanting to die, but its worth it.
