After a couple years of us having a shitty park things are looking up, we got pineside back. Also this year they will have features on the hill and on the bunny hill, for opening day, something they've never done before. Pictures will be posted of the setup after the weekend

Odin be praised! The park at bogie the last couple season has been pathetic. I went in thier park once last year and promptly returned to skiing icy-ass glades. Glad to hear it

No pictures but, there were 3 boxes setup (mini trap, mini rainbow and wide-ish flat box) a shotgun rail setup urban.

news: Were planning to setup a solid jump line, also get a spine and step up. Since they expanded the lodge they removed a hand rail that used to be in the back of the lodge and will be put in the park (triple kink to elbow)

I should Include that the park staff this year know what they are doing. The guy from last year dosent work at calabogie anymore.
Park staff include:
-A freestyle skier who has a couple years of experience in the park so knows how rails should be setup.
-Head coach of the freestyle program: Knows how to setup stuff safely but keep things interesting.
-An Australian girl (no idea what experience she has) She is really nice and a hard worker.
-Head of Ski Patrol.

The owner of the hill seems to be more ok to leave the park in the hands of the people who know it and know how things should be instead of him having a monkey that does his bidding.

Hmm... sounds like Bogie is getting their shit together this year. Stoked to see what will happen; last few years have been disgraceful. Especially stoked since Bogie is the closest hill to me...

I think I am heading up tomorrow. Where did you build the booter? I can only imagine with this new snow there will be even more potential.

that's good, we never intended the 16 ft to be that big. it was supposed to be only for the little guys who wouldn't hit the box.
