Hey guys. Its official, Sasquatch "jib park" sucks major dick.
-There run consists of maybe 4 features in length
-There is very little progression for beginners
-They had like ten features total last year.
-The park crew is mediocre
-Over all they have no concept of where to put shit to make it fun

That was just a few reasons why crystal fucking sucks....

Anyways If you hate crystal post the following in the link to tell them they are shitty. If you like crystal do the same to tell them they need to get there fucking shit together.

Link:

Post:
If the park Is gonna have a total of 4 lame features again next year I suggest making It more progressive. Kids get wrecked trying to learn tricks on your hand rails because you don't have any flat bars or mellow things to learn on. You had one flat lift tower last year and one flat bar you had to go 1000 mph into to get speed for, but c'mon get your shit together. What happ
ens when a kid who has never slid anything before try's hopping one of your hand rails and just because you don't have shit for features to learn on he slips out and breaks his tail bone, then the park gets shut down and its all over for every one.

As for the legit rails... why not make a line that goes further down magoo? Its no fun when you just clump your rails up like that and can only hit maybe two in a row. Even If you had half the run you had two years ago it would be better than last year.

MAKE A PROGRESSIVE PARK WITH MORE THAN TWO FEATURES....YOU WONT

But seriously you guys need to get your thumbs out of your asses and get shit done. At this point you cant even consider it a jib park.

Feel free to change the wording as desired. Or just write your own. Its time they get there shit together.

inb4 everything negative

Crystal management giving skiers a jib park is just like colonial congress giving blacks 3/5 of a vote. They think it will appease you, makes them think theyre being magnanimous, but they don't actually consider you to be real people~

Indeed. 19th Century political dialogue between the North and South has a direct bearing on whether or not you get to jib this winter.

Crystal started with a good idea, supported it properly for the beginning of the season, then pulled the rug from under their crew by cutting out most of their cat hours and budget. It's not the park crew's fault that they don't get the money they need to make the place sick. If you were in their position, you wouldn't go dig all day to set up one feature that could take ten minutes with the cat. The way things are set up is always up to personal ideas of people on crew--if you want to influence how that happens, get a job in a park, and you'll learn a lot about everything that frustrated you growing up.

OP, if you're trying to get their attention, you'll fail to incite anything but laughter about the demographic you represent.

It's a shame that they didn't fill out the jib park vision at xtal. Even bigger waste to have all those great features just laying around. 'qualmie or Stevens should buy them and put them to use.

I had no idea how good we had it the first year the park was made. Looking back they actually had a sick setup.

I dont ski park but Crystal is trying to become more "big mountain" resort type. I think they are doing a good job doing that (gondola, lift status boards, more lodging) but the next step is a decent park. So many more people would come if they had a good park. Its the main reason not everyone goes there

the last thing crystal needs is more people. who gives a fuck if their park is shitty. If you want to ski park, ski at stevens or snoqualmie. don't come to crystal.

Oh sweet irony...

I suggest building the southback windlip booter, sliding on trees if necessary and otherwise just learning how to ski really fast and jump off stuff. Crystal is a gem for just rippin it up. A shame, indeed, they let it slide.

Just sayin' they didn't give them 3/5 of a vote. They didn't give them any voting rights until after the civil war. What they did do was count blacks as 3/5 of a person for the census which determined the amount of representation states would get in the lower house of congress.

We've had those all the last three years... Haven't gotten any new ones. I'm gonna be working park crew part-time when I don't have school so I will hopefully have some info on the plan for this season soon.

Progression parks are gay as heelllll. The only time I actually enjoy their park is when they have a couple handrails setup to hike. But if you govto crystal for the park your a fucking idiot.

They couldn't vote themselves, but they counted as 3/5 of a vote which their slaveholder cast for them~

So really slaveholders just got more votes based on how many slaves they held. Seemslegit.jpg

the 3/5ths compromise states that each slave represents 3/5ths of a person to help determine a state's representation. They did not receive 3/5ths of a vote and their owners did not receive more votes as a result of it.

A state's representation = the number of votes it gets in the house of reps~
