Read the full story on the Men's at Transworld Snowboarding and here's what they had to say about Arena Snowparks.
Challenging snow conditions
Mother nature has a sense of humor. After battling for weeks in the rain to the build the pipe at Cypress Bowl, drier but not that cold weather conditions have turned the flat bottom of the pipe into sugar for the first two days of training.
Fine tuning the pipe
With three days to go until the start of halfpipe training at Cypress Bowl the ASP crew continues to shape the walls and dial in the start platform.
Arena Snowparks Halfpipe crew
ASP has assembled an elite team of pipe builders and shapers for the Winter Games. These guys have been working in some of the most challenging conditions possible to make the pipe at Cypress happen.
Half pipe shaping up and nearly finished
The Arena Snowparks crew has been putting in some long days to get the halfpipe ready for Olympic competition. Snow conditions have been soft which made for some good cutting on Friday and saw shaping crews cutting the vert line and re-setting form boards to contain the snow.
