nah,  i'm just really excited and a bit nervous, But given how this season has gone for me I think that I am capable of successfully pushing myself much farther.

Large. Waterfall is taller and 10ft longer, and both Juniors and Junks will probably increase 15-20ft. I don't know because they hadn't finished building when I clocked out at 11pm.

I'm taking my gopro tomorrow, and will make some sort of edit.

New additions from the last week include the Skullcandy jib, a new launch rail, and two proline rebuilds. The jumps are now 45-50-55ft, and nicely lofty. Tons of airtime, and people have been throwing down.

This weekend should be a total circus.

Jealous. If meadows had jumps that reasonable, I'd still have a knee.

Back in 2007 when they built up super park Junks and Juniors were much bigger. Showtime is probably the biggest public jump ever built distance wise at Stevens. The super park jumps were true doubles, but they were massive nevertheless.

I'm going to send you guys some beer for what you've been able to do with a rainsoaked 50 inch base. You guys deserve a medal of honor.

I would enjoy that. It looks a lot like something from the 50's or 60's. Please, tell them the host jackets are ridiculous and the women need to dress up like pinup girls at all times.

The unfortunate thing about pushing the jumps back is that some people won't be able to clear them if the speed is a little off, if their skis aren't fast, or they just don't weigh very much.

So if you're still growing, or just a small guy, wax those skis. Skate in. Drink your milk. And if I'm at the Waterfall drop in, I'll be happy to give you a pole whip.

the problem was that it changed like in no time to running fast to going slow and slower and even slower till it through you off. I knuckled it after skating and tucking and now my neck is in rough shape.

Speed wasnt an issue for me, im 145 and strait lined all 3 jumps. Just going to say I liked the waterfall more last weekend, Its still pretty fun now but it would be cool if the waterfall was like last weekend and junks and Jrs  are real nice they should stay the same.
