Replying to 411 on Crabbe's Terrain Parks
As stated in other posts. Johnny and I are both back looking after the parks again for our second year. There are lights going in the Ski Out Park in front of the Lodge which will hopefully be installed in the next week or so. We laid new snowmaking pipe through the Ski Out Park and the hydrants should be finished up in the next couple of days. This will enable us to run more guns at a time in the park which should mean an earlier opening date for the park.
We plan to run both parks this year but it is dependant on mother nature and snowmaking, so we will concentrate on one and then move to the second. It's been a couple years since there has been anything in the Flume Park which is a shame because it's got a lot of potential.
We are going to shake things around a bit this year. We are going to offer more small - medium elements which seemed to be more popular last year. Not that we are doing away with the big jumps, but we need more stuff for people to learn on. The plan will be to make the park more flowy. If we have the time we may even open a kids park with small berms, rollers and maybe a small box. Our plan is also to build three more rails (not confirmed yet) which will put us up to 12 rails & boxes. As for comps, Johnny is finishing up the schedule and I should have something to post shortly.
Last but not least, now is the time to throw your ideas at us, not when we are in the groomer so lets here em! Drop me an email info@crabbemountain.com
