Paintbrush Super Park










Mt Hood Meadows would be shaking in their boots if they were to see what Timberline is doing with their parks. The creativity is not letting up just because winter is over. Timberline is truly taking it to the next level with features never before seen on Mt Hood. Timberline's parks are shutting it down! Here's a run down of what you will see when you get there;

Standing on the top of the start mound you will see the jump line. It starts with a 25-30 foot cheese wedge style jump and leads into a 50-55 footer of the same type. The jump line is finished up with a 50-55 foot perfect table top. All of the jumps have SUPER good take offs and long steep landings. After the jumps, you enter the most technical rail line I've ever seen on Mt Hood. The first feature is a gap-step up to a box top rail. The gap is at least 15 feet and you step up at least 6 feet. Next is a giant barrel that sits at about a 30 degree angle and at its highest point it is about 9 feet tall. Coming off of it you have to clear about 15 feet to a long landing. Next, is an up-flat-down rail that's nice and smooth. From there you have a few options, either head right to hit a super tech S rail or left to set up for the down flat down double kink. Or you go down the middle and hit the street style down rail. To the right and after the S rail is the kicker rail to a small gap and nice landing. The final feature is the wall ride. The way it's set up allows you to either gap the 15-20 feet up onto the top or come from the side. Are you ready to step to this AMAZING PARK?
