People always say this, but then when you ask them what they had in mind they can't think of anything.

Okemo already has the most flossy dfd tube which is all I could ever ask for. If I could add anything else, it would be a dfd z combo, down right kink to flat left kink to down or vice versa.

A 30' down, a 24' elbow out of 6-8" tubing. A low 8',12', and 16' flat box.

A mellow 28' aframe. Flat bar. A large tube pole jam.


And a bunch of other things. Hopefully I'll get to build the down rail, elbow, and 2 of the boxes this year. My super duper future wish would be a z rail. Always wanted one. Someday, someday.

A cat driver trained in building terrain park features. The park crew at Bogus Basin works hard, but has to build features with shovels because Bogus doesn't have a cat driver who is experienced in building jumps & rail features. Bogus has so much potential but can't seem to get this important missing piece.

i mean stuff like redirect boxes, u rails, rail to stairs, s rails, elbow rails, rail to another rail (a-frame to a dfd or s rail to dfd like at wcs 8)

Thank you. I'm sure that would help, but the person in charge of the park (not a cat driver) went to cutters camp & still thinks it's OK for all of their rail features to have no lips (where you have to Ollie on) or really tiny "snowboarder" lips. (A little knowledge is a dangerous thing). And their jumps are poorly-designed or non-existent. They don't have snow making capabilities, which definitely limits them, but a cat driver with real experience would help SO much! They got a big grant, but chose to put the money into building a hut, lighting, music, etc. which are all great. But first you need features worth riding.
