So Is the track going to be at Crystal Ridge this summer? Alot of people are asking

Kevin O' said...

Yes ... 100% certain that we're back at Crystal Ridge this year.

Spread the word.

I was wondering if the new gate is being made or will we being doing one footed starts without one.

Hot Dang, Anonymous !!!

There's more questions to answer here than we've had in months.

Yeah we'll absolutely have a new gate ... and John and others are already working on the design and procurement of materials.

Drop will be fabricated by Mark Kluth and the platform, or deck, is essentially that ... a deck construction. What's nice is that we can build that in sections that make the gate much easier to transport.

Nope, it's not a concrete launch pad ... but, it's pretty much exactly what they are running at Rapids.

We're not too prideful 'round here to notice a good idea when we see one.

Just a suggestion to make a seperate Post that the track will be at The ridge as alot of people think the track is no longer :-/

We did investigate the possibility of moving the track location over the winter ... but, it just wassn't economically feasible. So, we remain at the 'Ridge with a vengeance.
