Usually down on a Tuesday or Saturday, although might give it a rest after almost knocking myself out on the giant rocket last Tuesday!

Ah, exams...hopefully I'll be finding a new job near brum so I can high-tail it after work! Or have a late morning on a Monday and squeeze in a morning club!

Me and my mate are heading up there on Monday night, and then should be going every couple of weeks or so, as we are total noobs so need the practice lol

Had a nice surprise on Friday night @ Tam. Someone had actually built a decent snow kicker with a transition. Never seen one of those at Tam before. I dont know where they got all the extra snow from but the rest of the slope hadn't suffered any. Thanks for that Tamworth and keep it coming.

Another first - I saw my first rider on a "Snow Deck". Nearly took me out, partly my fault because I was too busy staring at him while I was going down the slope wondering - WTF IS THAT ???

They look like great fun though- now my son wants one !

Well it certainly softens the landings and my legs didn't feel half as battered as they normally do from landing flat. I'd still be interested to know where they dug up the rest of snow from though ??

not sure really, i assumed that they had just taken more off the surface of the slope. i suppose they could have even moved it off the other baby slope but i'm not sure if they would be allowed to do that

@ Pertinky - Yep thats exactly what they do and thankfully it's normally a quietish night with exception of last Friday for some reason. It started nice and quiet but got quite crowded on the box/pipe/kicker a bit later (mainly with Skiiers)

@ Cartridge - Dunno where they got the extra snow from but rest of the slope wasn't showing any bare patches. The guy who just finished shaping it said he "just asked for some extra snow" to build it and he got it. Maybe they've got a secret Snowmec machine hidden away somewhere ???
