This is your chance to ride off a 12-foot tall jump on your skis or snowboard and land in a 50'x50' pillow of air!!! It is so much fun, no matter how you land! I had to give it a try and now I'm hooked. At first it's a bit intimidating - it's a huge rush just going up the ramp of the jump, then before you know it you are in the air looking at a big yellow pillow and the adrenaline really kicks in, then you land - literally on a pillow of air – I cannot put this feeling into words. My first jump I lost my balance going off the jump and was going to land flat on my back, it scared me unbelievably, but when I landed all I could do was giggle and laugh – it didn't hurt, it was fun! I've hit the jumps in the terrain park and at the water ramp and I have to say nothing compares to this.

The 50'x50' airbag has several inflatable chambers designed for soft smooth landings. For all you park rats it's a great way to safely practice and learn new tricks before trying them in the park! 

Check it out!!
