Holy crap. One of these days, I have got to get out to Whistler in the summer and gawk at the bike park. Likely wouldn't get off the "bunny slopes" myself, but holy bejeebus they've got some neat stuff.
Among the new features this year: bridge between two giant tires...

sweet, can't wait to ride that stuff.
grip it and rip it biatch
those pictures are just ideas for the boneyard. w/b is posting them online to get rider feedback. we'll see what actually gets built
I was up there on the boards last weekend- Fitzsimmons was crazy hella-packed with more bikers than the eye could see. I can't wait to get back up there with my bike in a few weeks, but riding my RM Element- it looks like I'll get a severe ass-kicking. Those trails look tailored toward bad ass downhill bikes. But they really look SICK and appear in great shape. Oh yeah, and Garbanzo lift opens in a month. Whistler definitely appears to be the undisputed king of lift-served downhill bike trails (sorry, mammoth and deer valley).
That trailer looks cool the tyres just scare the poo out of me
