Actually went for a walk back there on Saturday and to my surprise, someone gave the place a serious makeover. Although most of area was covered in snow, you could tell that the jumps had been reshaped and groomed before the snow moved in. It looks really good. For those that have been there, I'm sure you'lll know what I'm talking about in the description.
SPOT 1: the two really small doubles (that are barely doubles - more like bumps in the dirt) all the way to the left that ends in the concrete jump that nobody hits. You have to climb up near the wooden burm and roll off the lip of the "cliff" to hit them.
They have been filled and reshaped and are now really nice small doubles with an actual space between them.
SPOT 2: the two huge launch pads that you pass as you hit spot one (where Juanjo caught SERIOUS AIR and talked the little kids to do it and almost kill themselves lol)
Those hits are SUICIDALLY (not sure if that's a word) HUGE - also reshaped.
SPOT 3: the small jump with the downhill landing where then you have to jump over the tree and hit the sharp left turning burm (the place where Shino, Fool, and Juanjo scraped me off the floor twice before I called it a day) The series of doubles after the turn that lead you to the entrance have also been reshaped and look really nice.
The jump has been reshaped and the landing has been smoothend. The launch over the tree also looks filled, so it looks like it will be harder for me to get my front tire stuck on the tree (very hard spill)
SPOT 4: the GIGANTO DOUBLE looks like it has been reshaped as well, but there was no sign of any tire tracks on that puppy!
SPOT 5 and 5B: The table top (or roadsign top) jump that you guys were hitting that lead to the other double closer to the entrance appear to look the same, although for some reason there was lots of snow on those.
The rest of the doubles particularly the ones that are located between the trees that in theory you would hit after going through SPOT 1 and turning left have also been covered and reshaped with fresh dirt. It was muddy as $HIT back there, and there was a lot of snow, so I didn't climb up to the top where I couldn't tell if there were any changes. Hopefully it well melt soon and the ground will harden up so we can enjoy the spot this spring.
