It was too dark to take any decent pictures of the daily progress, so here are a couple of my favorite turndown pictures from last year. Jordan in early summer 2009 and Brad in late fall 2009 over the Main Line hip in.
We went digging Wednesday night instead of Thursday from the looks of the weather report. We made super good progress on the bowl corner / starting hill for the new section. We should be able to finish the starting hill away from the rock wall in a couple of hours. We had a minor collapse of the rock wall, but the dirt stayed where it was supposed to. The current excavation site is approaching completion until we are able to build up the last landing heading into it. Brad thinks he has found the next dig site. Things are shaping up in the new start zone and the first bowl corner and quarter for about 12 feet are stacked to height and it looks awesome. It is just shy of 6 feet tall and we have good dirt on the flat bottom to go deeper once we get to that point. If this idea works out like we sure it will, the lines thru this section are going to be bad ass. We will have a concrete skatepark out of dirt with endless lines. Hopefully we can get some kids down to see it and get them stoked on finishing the street spine opposite of the quarter, because priority for the main digging crew is continuing construction down the new line.
