Or just have the park crew hire filmers that just stack shots everyday and pay extra to have one film you for a day.

All the space I want for a park and a limitless budget. Lol. Idk, sometimes the confines of space and budget make things fun to problem solve and get creative, but it would be nice to push it a bit more sometimes. When you're like "This would be so sweet" but you can't fit it anywhere, or get new space. Or we could build this but we only have enough material or budget for that.

Or just a free beer works

When instructing groups of kids (from 3/4 years old) and we are going to other parts of the hill I often put all the kids skis on one of those big snow shovels because if they carry their skis for them self it takes forever. Therefor maybe some kind of snow trolley/cart designed for this that could take all those skies and that you could be able to take in the lifts (like those sit skis maybe) and be thin enough to take in a gondola lift, maybe wheels that can be pushed down to for those parts without snow.
Not the most fun idea but seemed like a somewhat realistic design idea that as far as I know don't exist and that could be somewhat easy to design..

Crotched Mountain, its in Soutehern NH...They try to make their "Crotched Parks" thing look legit and dont change a setup for 2 months, the manager is also ruining the mountain trying to get all the money for himself he can, they wont allow a jump bigger than a 30' and they wont hire a legit park crew, its one guy whos paid and the others are volunteers.

More episodes will start later this month and I can assure you that they will be a bit longer and way better quality.

I think it would be awesome to do a full length episode/movie but I simply don't have the time between school and work.

@Ebola, you can expect to see plenty of pro bashing.
