New Park features

so where are parks going in your opinion?  what inovative and new stuff do you want to see in ontario parks??  This season at my hill we are going to mix it up in our jump line/rail park, and add rails in the jumps, and jumps in the rail side to give it a slopestyle feel... along with adding some fun easy features,  metal barrel stack,  Corrigated metal and plastic drain pipes, low consequence rails and boxes - and of course big booters, and  technical rails...

I would like to see one 45 foot jump at chicopee. Just ONE. Our largest is 30 at the most.

i would like to see a feature without a 3 foot gap on at mslm next year.

Also, i think the new down flat rail at horseshoe would be more trickable if it wasnt set up on the stairs and had a nice drop landing...

i think an urban style down rail with a short (1 or 2 foot) flat kink at the end would be dope.... steezy cuz its an urban down, but also very trickable with the flat at the end

i think it would be sick to see some nice easy urbans with maybe a constant gentle down slope would be sick, nice and smooth to ride, but also keep some of the more difficult rails for a bit of a challenge also. i think its pretty fun to hit weird, abstract features that you dont see too often, such as a massive drainpipe sticking out of the back end of a knoll as seen at beaver valley last season.

as for jumps, i think a series of step ups with a small side and big side are nice, with maybe 1 or 2 big tabletops. taking advantage of the shape of the hill for knolls, etc. is key.

also i have heard of up rails that shoot you over knolls so you can have a little air time for tricks on the way down, that could be some great fun right there.

MSLM just needs to switch it up in general. They have far too many "classic" park features (down flat downs, double kink rails, down rails and boxes) and not enough new creative stuff.

My favourite line at MSLM this year was the far one with the barrel tap, tear drop and battle ship just because there were so many possibilitys on those features.
