Snowshoe Park Update..

We have decided to do park updates as much as we can, so here is the first one. A friendly reminder is that we are not affiliated with Snowshoe, we just ride there and want to provide updates of how the park looks. Update and pictures from Saturday the 12th...

Snowshoe
Spruce Glades - Open with zero features, but they are cranking out the snow on it.
Powder Monkey Terrain Garden - Open with 5 features. 2 flat boxes, a triangle box, a barrel, and a metal conical object.

Silver Creek
Mountaineer - Not open.
Timberjack - Not open, but with massive whales on it.

10' Surface Box

Barrel















20' Flat Box

Metal conical object thing.

Triangle Box/Wallride

And rainy today....

Openings

We hit opening day at Snowshoe on Saturday, and then App's opening on Sunday. We filmed a bit but nothing really. I ended up not taking too many pictures, none on Sunday. Opening day is just hard to get film and pics because everyone's having so much fun and nobody wants to deal with any cameras. Missed out on the comp Sunday due to App's delay of annoucing they would open, but still had fun there. Also in resort news, The Homestead is planning on opening Dec. 19 or before (weather dependent), check below for pic of them making snow. The Homestead is basically a hole in a wall, but when they have thier park out, it is a blast.


Went to bed like this.


Woke up to this.

The weekend looks somethin like this...

Snowshoe is finally opening up this saturday!!! We'll be there for sure. They are hoping to have trails at Snowshoe and Silver Creek goin, meaning night riding. Also they are gonna try to get some features out on Spruce Glades. Gonna be great riding a lift again, I've missed all the relaxing, funny, and awkward times.



And if Snowshoe isn't epic on saturday(they may get some powpow but maybe not), then sunnyday will be spent at App! Sunday is there opening day and they have five dolla lift tickets on wickets and Rome's pre-jibby. App has the best terrain park in the South, in my opinion, so it is gonna be a good day.

Day 3

The last day of our weekend expedition. The day included lessons on gravity, heat, and their effects on snow. Kind of a slow and low day, but not too much complaining. We were boardin.

 In other news, this weekend looks to be on point. Some powder thurs night and friday, celebration festivities friday night, snowshoe opens friday saturday, and app on sunday with a bunch of brosephs. Everybody's workin for the weekend.
