Yeah, they did. But as you may not have noticed, this thread is many years old, so the link to the video is long dead. Im sure the vid is still around somewhere

Just posting in this epic thread to let ya know. If Alta gets it's way you will no longer need to boot up avvy terrain to hit the gaps. You will be able to ride a lift and git your huck on ride it switch to the road and repeat. Unless your a boarder then your fucked cause

And they gots no pipe or park

haha, correct me if I'm wrong but I think they blew up the jump that THall built when he hit it.  They didn't blow up the landing.  Chad's is still there you just have to build the kicker.

What if I'm black?  Are you saying just because I'm a skier means I gotta be white automatically?  Thats racist man.

And the takeoff is higher than the landing. Pyramid is flatter around it.

I think NS will never close just because this thread is so legendary.  It would be hella funny if your kids were showing you this thread, I would just start cracking up!  NS will never close just so the public can see this thread.  I bet the guy who created the thread doesn't ever get on or realize he made one of the most famous, if not the most famous, thread on NS.

I was thinking of asking someone the question to see if they were on NS, but then i just asked if they were on NS. Would have been weird if i had asked him about chads gap.
