With rail jam season starting this Saturday at Avon Day, I think it's time to start this. There are some big plans for this season in the works at Sundown, so let's discuss here (instead of last years thread...)

BTW, here's the list of the upcoming rail jams Sundown is putting on:
Avon Day - 9/25 @12pm
Suburban Sports / Meatheads - 10/2
Sun and Ski, Avon, ct - 10/9
Outdoor Sports - 11/6
Colorado Ski Shop - 11/13
Simsbury Celebrates - 11/27 @ 4pm

cork what?!?!?!? but im guessing theres a high correlation between the awesome parks you guys have set up this year and the ridiculous amount of progression ive seen in alot of the locals.

Believe it, he was going for the 10, but couldn't land it forward so just went for the 12 so he could land switch. Edit should be coming out early next week, we're gonna try and get a few more shots to add.

jump(S) senior... jump(S) we have two... and we just gave the second one a touch up.   cut the landing a half foot on the first one to use that snow to tweak the second.  good stuff. 

Walmer learned back blading and tilling today.  get scared.

You'll be able to see it before the comp, we plan on building it the middle of this week, and as always, as soon as it's built pictures will be up. Plus, I think trying to describe it by typing would just be too confusing.

And yeah, only a few people here would know, but how long till word gets out...umm about 3 min.
