Park & Pipes - Whistler Blackcomb

  The latest updates from Whistler Blackcomb's terrain parks.
Monday, January 15, 2007
Excellent snow conditions combined with outstanding building by the Park groomers has brought the Highest Level Park to an all time high. The HL Park is entertaining the top riders & skiers & blowing the on lookers minds. A new combo rail by the shack booter followed by the 50 foot flat bar plus there is another single pipe kink rail going in below that which will keep the jibbers challenged.  


All the table tops have received some love and are now getting into the huge category. Looks like the weather will continue to hold the high pressure so more advancements will be made on the right line for the HL park along with more rails to go in. In the Nintendo Park extra rail and table tops have been added so there’s lots to choose from outside the HL Park. Park riding has never been so good, come up & experience it for yourself.

Our W park has never looked so good. Lots of action on the new Bobcat hit & rail line…

 Whistler Habitat Park Expansion

The Habitat Park on Whistler now has two distinct & separate lines to meet everyone’s needs. The lower line or Chipmunk run of Habitat continues to offer S to M features and now has snow & rail features top to bottom. The park groomers & staff have now extended the upper line or Bobcat run to include several L table tops, a huge step up, a series of street style rails and a barrel bonk to finish it off. The new Bobcat line is packed with riders & skiers trying out new & old tricks. Great weather & warmer temperatures up top is making for excellent riding in the Parks so come see why the Whistler Habitat park is the best it’s ever been!

Whistler is having on of the best seasons ever! Endless fresh snow keeps falling (27+ feet and still counting) and we are well over a 3 meter base now.

 
Yep, that's a rail.

The fresh pow makes for epic riding but is actually slowing down the Parks expansion as we have to continuously dig out the rails, features & rebuild the park almost weekly! The park staff do their best to clear off snow on the rails & hits so our park riders can still hit the features each day. At night, our park groomers are plowing the snow off, rebuilding table tops and rail platforms.

 

Huge thanx to the day & night Parks team for making the effort each day to offer you the best park riding experience. Fences buried to the top & waist to chest deep drifts around the rails is giving the Parks team a work out almost every day.

Maybe the on line contest www.ifullrwasagirl.com is causing Ullr to be vengeful with the all the snow this season!?

So if you’re up here and in the park, enjoy it, and props to the team for keeping it in shape. If you’re up here and out of the park, well, you know how good it is, we don’t need to remind you. And if you're not here, well, you know what to do...

You probably already know about the contest currently going down with $25 grand up for grabs. Whistler Blackcomb is running an on line contest called if ullr was a girl, and still with almost 2 months to go there’s 200+ girls vying for top spot, and more signing up daily. What does it have to do with the park?

Finalists will win a trip to Whistler during the Telus Ski & Snowboard Festival & all kinds of events & activities are planned to finally choose one winner for the Open & Amateur Categories.

To get the stoke on here in Whistler, Anto Orts custom painted a down box with the Ullr contest artwork. The ifullrwasagirl down box is set up in the Highest Level park & is open to guys & girls to hit.

Check out the website
& help choose who you think is the ultimate female Ullr! Meanwhile for the ladies… start hitting the Ullr box, who knows, it may be one of the challenges for the finalists!
 
Stay tuned for the photos once the darn uploader works again... meanwhile they're at http://www.whistlerblackcomb.com/mountain/parks/updates0607/dec30_ullr06.htm
