Hey faceplant - Cheers for the offer - on a training day tomorrow with Tranny , Gladice and Northern so wont be up that way. Let us know how chikie is - I heard reports of all the shore including the ladder drops going, which will be a real shame if true.

Hi Folkes,

Nearly all the shore has gone, only the wall ride remains, both ladder drops have been taken out. The guy said it was due to the cost of insuring them £25k. He also said they are going to redevelop the left hill area, they closed one of the DH runs too. They have done a fair amount of work on the dual slalom, its really quick and flowing for the first section then you get a a few jumps towards he bottom. i didnt notice the 4x changed at all.

Had a really good day tho, tried the dirt jumps for the first time and by the end i was clearing the 3rd jump, but couldnt quite get the 4th!
