That's the upper section of the chatel slopestyle... I was there last week, but the bad weather came in on the saturday arvo @ 3.40pm for the comp and they shut the lifts down and the event slowed down, don't know what happened later.
However, I was proud to have the bear-claw and Romaniuk pass me and my mate on the BLACK bike patrol trail...
