It was a good start at Coronet for the season for about 3 days, then it all turned to crap. A few days of warm weather and high wind pretty much killed what base we had, but now they are back up and running and looking good.


Early morning - the view from the top before setting up the park

Since there isnt a decent base yet it has been hard for the park crew to build pads for there park.

I have been riding around with some of the local QT groms - Gethro, Ted and Toby, and they have such a fresh view on what is around. They pick out these hits all down the runs that most wouldnt even thing about and are willing to experiment and try out new things.


Get your butter on!!

Toby tapping that.....

They showed me some sweet line up there which we have had so much fun on. When riding with these groms that throw down like this - its all ways fun.
