"Hidee ho everyone, I'm sure you're all wondering what's going on up on the mountain...
Well, it's been a busy summer for sure. First we've taken big steps to try and put up a fight if mother nature wants to be a stingy little b!#%h again. On parts of the hill we've replaced miles of snowmaking pipe, most importantly on L Standard, that pipe blew up the last 3-4 seasons in a row and added new tower guns to put down some serious snow for the pipe no matter what. On N Slope, we installed 5-6 new turbo fan guns to bury that friggin park trail. 5th Ave got a major cut back (trees) on skiers right so they might have added a few feet to the trail for us and better tower guns added!!! Tyro also got some upgraded tower guns! So, I'm feeling really really good about putting snow on the ground in the parks this season!
Now, I'm sure you're all wondering about rails and what not... Well I've been in the shop the last few weeks. I've taken all the awesome suggestions you have thrown at me and I wish I could make everything but shooting to turn out 10 new ones. And yes, you will have a rail/box set that the rail and box can be setup on either side when re-setup. I'm still in the process of painting and assembling the few features that are all welded up so I don't have pix just yet, but I will post some teasers soon. Some features I'll share with you and some I want to keep under wraps for a bit of an on hill unveiling if you don't mind. But I will let you know there are more round bar stuff in the works, double barrel, boxes and the return of the "what" rail and...
Events have also gotten a boost but still in the works so details to follow...
I hope you're all as stoked as I am for this new stuff and a new season, I just hope it's a cold one!!!"
Who is stoked? The question mark rail is coming back...
