doesn`t it kinda frustrate you guys when the lip of jumps are being remade cuz of the gapers?

well i think that ski resorts should lay snow flex on top of jump takeoffs so they dont crap out
and lay a thin layer of snow over the snow flex so you still feel like you r takin off from snow

and im thinkin this could lead to cheaper lift tickets cuz you dont need people to maintain the jumps.

what do you guys think?

Hummm, its a good idea but I don't think it would work all that well. If the snow was a thin layer it would ice over real quick and be horrible to ride off. Also the diffrent speeds, because if the snow was taken off the snow flex then you would get slowed down alot before you take off. It might keep maintanence costs down, but i recon it would be pretty dangerous to if part of the matting comes up and you catch your ski. 
  It could work though.

Q: How do you till a thin layer of snow?

A: You don't... it's not a good idea, sorry.

Plus jumps need to be rebuilt ocassionally anyways because they will settle and melt even with the snowflex.

And the best way to keep "gapers" off the jump is... Build Bigger Jumps.

funny that you say that... i once saw someone laying half way between the jump and landing or the first jump in freeway with blood everywhere and several patrollers crowded around him.... Bigger jumps won't always work for that ha

my final consensus on this thread:

OP- Your an idiot, dont blame someone else for ruining a thread that was a shithole to begin with.

OP's Idea- Not that smart, the snow would get pushed away very soon and you would be left with just the snowflex.

There are gonna be gapers everywhere you go, and you have park crews to deal with them ruining features

good idea dude, but it just wouldn't happen...

easiest way for this problem is to keep all the gapers out of the park

and it did not do shit.

and to the guy who created the thread: That's a bad idea. You think a tiny improvement in the jump would lower costs for park crew? They still have to build and maintain features. How would saving like an hour a day give everyone lower ticket prices? Sorry, your logic in genuinely awful.
