The Magic Forest

By: Geoff McDonald

Early March brough warm temps to the East Coast and the powder skiing was put on hold until further notice.  With Will, Andy and LJ in town we knew something out-of-the-ordinary had to be done.

After much research by our marketing and sales guru: Mike Rogge (as well as his father) it was decided to gamble on filming at a amusement park near Lake George, NY.  Closed in the winter, The Magic Forest, is a child's wonderland of animals, storybook characters, and fantasy creatures.  Perfect for jibbing!

Warm temps and light precip kept us in the clouds for some of the time but after much hard work and a little sun the skiers managed to jump, handplant, bonk and flip over most everything we could find at the park.  We spent a total of 4 exhausting days building jumps and shaping takeoffs to perfection.  Wanna know what to expect in the new Wild Stallions movie?  Take a look at the pictures and use your imagination!

Haha, most of these updates don't get half these comments in 10x the time. I think andy's been advertising on a certain NS website. can't wait for some of these shots. How about finding a dinosaur and sliding it like a dinosaur rail? yeah, that'd be rad
