How to Submit a Course Design:

Designs can be submitted to uvmfst@uvm.edu, in any form you choose; a picture drawn by hand, a detailed graphic, a written description, or even a video of your mom telling us what you want us to build! Choose any four of the six rail options below, and place them in any creative, generic, or crazy pattern you choose. Our favorite design will be built by Stowe's park crew, and then sessioned all day long during the Design and Ride Jam.

The Rails:

Single Pipe Triple Waterfall & Single Pipe Double Side Kink

Single Straight Pipe

DFD Box

Flat Box

Rainbow Box
