Concrete box

So I was at 7 Springs a few weeks ago. They have this new urban park that you probably heard about if you ski the east. Its an urban themed park so they have handrails and then grey fiber glass boxes that look like concrete. As it turns out a few of them actually are concrete. Not knowing this, my first run through I decide to pop a 180 on this down box (made of concrete). I jumped on 90 and my skis immediately caught on the concrete and I flipped over onto my shoulder. Three weeks later I go to the doctor because I am still sore as hell from that crash. Turns out I have a broken collarbone.
Don't you think they should at least have a sign telling people not to grind the damn thing? I mean most of the boxes had grey fiber glass, only about 3 had concrete. How are you suppose to know not to grind it? Anybody else have this problem at 7 springs?

i guess you didnt read the 3 signs at the entrance of the park.... plus scope before you do anything. and the last thing all the features are made out of either a special type of wood, concrete, or granite like material. other then the wall rides nothing is pollyglass
