If I had to take a stab at it I'd say that's where they test their boards

It's the Revolution factory: http://www.rideharder.com/revolution/. And it is not closed. If you go talk to the guys there or send them an e-mail they will usually let you hit it. They had a comp there open to skiers and boarders a year or two ago. This last winter they opened up the set up to the public every Wed. night ($5 per person). The astroturf stuff is a little slow, but they usually have a hose on the ramps. But seruious, give them a call, and I bet they'll let you hit it. They have made skis in the past too, and they're pretty nice.

i used to go there twice a week and ill i did was show up on the nights signed a waver once and it was free from then. its way good i would suggest doing it pre season it really helps you polish up the skills before you get up to the resorts and it is pretty safe but i have seen a few broken arms and big gashes on it before. its deffinately not for the beginer
