agreed.  also vote for less up features. 5 all year (j rail, big cannon, lil cannon, up rail in n slope and guard rail box) compared to one flat rail, a tiny one in l standard that was gone half way through the season.  and then they get rid of the propane box and add what?  another up feature.  i think all those rails should be set up flat or down with the exception of the cannons.  one or two up features is alright but 5 and no flat rails?

Kurt pushed it all out into a single area (unlike last year which was split into 2 narrow lanes).

He isn't sure exactly what he can set up as it shat rain yesterday.

The word is at least 8 features, including a small jump/platform for some air and other niftyness.

30ft flat, down tube, donkey, and hopefully a slew of other fun shit.

Either way, it's Kurt and he is out there right now setting up something awesome for us to all enjoy tomorrow. Def get stoked

What's the plan if thunder storms roll in? Just keep on sliding on large chunks of metal or is it a liability issue?

Chance of thunderstorms = small chance of rain. No need to worry.

Today was awesome. Nothing beats skiing with friends and then heading over to the cold hollow cider mill and cabot for some free drinks/food.
