Norquay has 34 runs, some mega steep, and the second oldest double chair in Canada. Smells like grease and sounds old, too, it's awesome. The airbag is obvious. The park's well maintained and the lift laps it, you just go again and again.

I haven't hit the bag yet but i've heard from friends who have that it's really disappointing. It's set up so you can't get very much air at all - there's no gap to the bag and the people supervising make you drop in on one spot where you can't get much speed.

Yeah it fucking sucks I hate it, it's an eyesore, and you can't get enough air to do doubles anyways. Hahah come on man it doesn't huck you but it is practical and fun.
