Nicks run - dialed in with 50 and 60 foot step downs and just re-introduced the c-rail as a down sprial to the left of the last jump. rails leading into the double line are 24 ft flat and 36ft up/flat/down.
Kangaroo run - 25, 33, 38, 45 jumps
32ft flat down rail, 36ft down/flat/down box, 24ft down box, 2-ft flat rail, 40ft up down rail....and the CONTRAPTION..20 ft up box to platue to small ledge with coping then back down the up box the way you came. Was the quarter pipe but we switched it up.
Superpipe is going to be closed mon-fri for a rebuild....great news...the Dragon is getting some serious fabricating done to it to get the tranny in line with the flat bottom...THIS MEANS NO MORE KINK AT THE FLATBOTTOM!!!!!
PARK IS BETTER THAN ITS BEEN ALL SEASON!!!

hell yeah, my back will thank you for reshapeing the pipe. Everybody fill out comment cards so alpine can get more rails and such.

what sucks more....no pipe for a few days or a pipe thats too wide, has a kink at the flat bottom and won't last maybe a week before 'rocking out' with the heat wave this week.

The creativity returns! Where is the Snowbomb Big Air going to be? Kangaroo again or on Nick's run. I'm down if it' son Kangaroo again, but if it's on Nick's run I have psychological issues that would prevent me from competing.

'however it seems that everything is geared to be opened for the weekend'
well if you understand that it needs to be closed SOMETIME for maintenance the next thing you need to understand is they get much more business on the weekends and theyd be disappointing a whole lot more people then just you if they closed it on weekends.

^and then you wake up Nick. I prefere Big Air inruns where you have to point it all the way in and not worry about TOO much speed. Being the fat ass I am, then I usually get to go a little bigger than the rest.

PIPE is open again and very smooth with the new modifications to the dragon!
There is video of the contraption at http://www.skialpine.com/video.html
sorry no skiers in the video just snowboarders...there were no good skiers around when we were filming...get out there and shred the contraption and we'll film it if when we see a session going down.
later skaters

pipe was fun even though the snow was so soft it created a river of slush down the middle. :)

thanks for fixing the pipe mudflap, the jumpline was great, but now that it's getting warmer, you might want to start salting the takeoffs, i'm fine with soft landings, but loosing all your speed coming into a tranny for a jump makes me sad.
