Crossbow our new signature feature in Forest Park

1/27/2013 5:38:00 PM by Parks Crew in Connection, Media Center, Parks Blog | 7 comments

The Crossbow has arrived! This innovative feature was designed by our parks crew, constructed by Kurt Heine. We have plans to use it in the "Snake & Hammer" Banked Slalom event March 30, but until then it will be our signature feature in Forest Park. The elegant double C-Rail design allows approaches from multiple directions, allowing you to get creative. C Rail it, go straight over the top, jib a side or event transfer diagonally. The feature is ready for you to play on it.

See you on the mountain!

    You can delete the second austin comment being that it was mine. I didn't realize that it took a while for the comments to post and I will upload some videos of me in Forest park as well as some pictures. And how would I get my foot in the door and get a job working on designing the parks and new park features?

    Meadows: Thanks Austin. Check our the employment page at SkiHood.com and you can apply for positions there.

    This feature is awesome, but i would like to see more progressive features, bigger jumps, and less like the 9ft rainbow rail in park place that nobody will touch.

    Meadows: Thanks Gunnar. The feedback helps.

    What do you mean ,Gunnar,no one will touch?maybe you mean you won't touch.that rainbow is the only rainbow worth hitting,the one in FPis a rank beginner rail.

    Meadows: Every rainbow is a promise? Find the Pot O' Gold? Not quite certain which way to go here. But I know rainbow rails can be a lot of fun!
