It’s getting to be that time of year again...The snow is melting and the trails are revealing themselves yet again as they always do during this annual dance.  Brett Tippie spreads the stoke on opening day at Whistler Bike Park.  He interviews some of the riders who camped out a day early just to get first chair as well as the Manager of the Whistler Bike Park, Brian Finestone.

There’s some clips of guys ripping the fresh trails a new one combined with some up and coming news for the park straight from the manager.  Check out what Brian has to say regarding the status of the park at 0:44 seconds in to the video.

I can’t be the only one who’s stoked for downhill season! It looks like it might take a couple extra weeks this year to melt all of this season’s snow (thanks El Niño!)
