Writing: Cooper Hoffmeister / Photos: Jay Dutton After a season of Steven Duke and Park Crew building and maintaining one of the most fun parks in the country,
The Canyons went out in true style. With blue skies, warm weather and a perfect park, the party went off.
Canyons riders, Tom Flocco, Nate Sheehan, Jason Hindman, Ben Millsaps, and Andy Cooke were in the house and all killing it. Amazing jumps were being crushed,
a ridiculously fun hip was getting boosted and getting high was the MO.
This year The Canyons rocked a carpet wall ride
and a gong
that were some of the most creative and innovative features I saw all year. With full rail and box lines, jibbing was in full effect.

Reverse double camber eh...

SO fun...
Those boards are so fun- I'm amazed at how well aboard that presses so easy handles the slush. No wonder people love the rocker boards. I'm sold...

No Joke!
I scored a ticket here one day this year and it was one of the most fun days of the year. Ten times better than park city had their park for the better part of the season. PC finally got some things dialed during the last week of riding, but Canyons was on it all season. I'd call it overall the best park in Utah now. Better Jumps than Brighton (brighton has a lot of fun/interesting jibs), better everything than PC (thank you for at least having that 8 ball - best feature you've ever had, learn to get creative and set up a down rail! TWS best park? Not a chance!), lots of variety, good stuff. I never would have thought, but I'll probably get a season pass to Canyons next year.
Sick...
Always nice to see the boys getting they're shred on.
Squaw closes 5/11 and I have mad floor/couch/futon space- come one, come all...I'll sweet talk tickets out of Savannah.
