the park crew at my home mountian just gave up. Everythings run down and all the lips are either completly run down and u'd out or rediculously crooked and sideways, every feature is SUPER sticky!. I cant get better because nothing is even safe to hit. Just skecthy. Were supposed to get 7 to 10 inches tonight and they told me today that there done fixing stuff for the year and we got what we got. Does this happen to people at our mountians?

well rails are a lot smoother when they are waxed, for example urban. Usually in parks though they just grind the rails really smooth with a metal brush on the grinder. It would be impractical to wax all the rails in a park when it would get worn off in like a day anyway.

Thats what i thought. They just chill at the bottom of the hill and smoke everyday all day. Take like 1 run every 2 or 3 hours then go smoke more. Pisses me off so much. Guess its time to find a new home mountian.

I hate hearing about shit like this.  Sounds like someone is going to get wrecked in that park.  They will get sued, but ultimately it effects the whole industry.  If you have a park, you have to maintain it.  They would be better off just tearing down everything instead of leaving up the way you are describing.  That would suck for you, but it's probably a wiser decision for them.

sounds like they are just extremely lazy, park crew should keep doing their job until the mountain closes
