And while I agree that most of those edits were garbage, we kinda did get 30+inches, so yes, the features are going to be buried causing them to be ride on, the park crew has since fixed everything on both terrain parks.
I enjoyed the last two in the OP. Anyway, finally getting up to sundown this sunday after 3 weeks of recovering from mono. Can anyone tell me what the setup is going to be like? *cough* Bwalmer *cough*
Setup isn't going to change much for this weekend, since it's vacation week we can't build during the day.
Stinger - Canon, unbow, corrugated, lift tower, close-out, 32' down rail (I'd like to try and fix the lip on this thing...it was the new guys first time...haha), 4-kink, skinny urban down. Jump line (35' step-over, 30' what I'm gonna call a table).
Tom's - Ollie over barrel, double barrel rail, flat rail (in a fenced off section and a drop in so it can be hiked easily and out of the way), hitching post, round rail (with tranny side), 3 mini jump line (5', 15', 10').
Hopefully next week we can rebuild and replace some stuff. I'd like to get some new stuff out...but I'm still not 100% sure where they are and we don't want to go on a hunting mission with the snowcat cause we're worried we'll break them.
I like how the Southington kids are here hating...what's funny is, our park crew is happy to see the Southington crew stepping it up, you guys are working your balls off. However, the kids at your mountain are kinda douchey...and I'm sorry to see that. I find it funny that I'm constantly seeing Southington kids on the internet hating (ironically, I'm also constantly seeing them at Sundown)...but it doesn't seem to be the other way around...odd.
If only people knew the work that went into building parks (especially at small mountains like Southington and Sundown), there wouldn't be any hate towards the park crew (at any mountain). Honestly, anyone who hates on any park crew doesn't deserve to go in the park. Think about the things you say in person or online before asking for stuff from your park crew...they remember how much of an ass you've been.
I love what you guys do, perfect lips onto stuff.....! Anyways, i really like the hike rail, but could you fence it off a little bit more cause people use like the knuckley part as a jump.......and could you possibly move the lip for the 32 down rail closer so its not as much of a gap? Thanks
agreed. jumps on stinger are so nice right now. but the problem with toms is it is the beginner way down so kids pizza over the landing kinda screwing it up
It's actually that people don't clear the knuckle so they get beat to fuck (it amazes me that non-park people would rather land on the flat/knuckle than down the landing...I've seen people who actually make to the landing then scream "I went way too big on that, I need to go slower next time" after just barely clearing the knuckle)...those got fixed Sunday night and are getting fixed again tomorrow morning.
