Unofficial Thredbo Park Update 2011

Charles Beckinsale has dropped me an update on the Thredbo park for the new season along with a few photos of the features that are going to be going out. Have a read below for deets and check out the images in the gallery above!

###

The Park Crew have been busy over the last few weeks building 6 new park features and repairing the Jib Fleet that now consists of over 30 features. There is now new perspex on all of the Boxes as well as new panels, plywood and paint jobs to give the older features a face lift.

DC have sponsored the park crew uniform again for Winter 2011, DC and the park crew have worked together on 3 of the 6 new features. Look out for the DC wall ride, C Rail and the down flat rail.

The park grooming team has also grown, Chris Ingham from Park City will be joining Parker Bohon from June Mtn and Tristan Bates from Heavenly. Myself and Sam Towers will be heading up the Park Department along with a solid day crew of 8 team members to make sure the parks are in mint condition day and night.

We plan to have 2 small early season parks going for opening weekend and we will keep adding features as snow allows.

We will keep you updated over the season with photos and a run down of whats in and whats happening.

For now enjoy the pics of the new additions.
