Olympic Training

Sunday, January 24th, 2010

Planet has been hard at work getting pipes open at Keystone resort , Winterpark resort, and Telluride all in Colorado. Also the pipe out in Stratton some stuff in Japan and Calgary. But the work and effort going into the pipe at Otsego Club Michigan is a little different. We have 12 Olympic teams trainning at this private resort and the Planet guys put in a rediculous amount of time to get this thing going and to keep it going smooth.

Planet

Planet has been working hard this winter on different parks and events and none harder than Pat Melandoski and Rich Schollum at our events in Japan. Marginal snow conditions and injury’s tried to slw the crew down but with unbridaled tenacity the crew put together one of the best Pipes and Slopestyle courses the event has ever seen.

View from the top of the slopestyle course at night. Double down rails to start it out.
