Isnt the point in Park-urgh to be jumping around the streets for free? And not paying 'the man' for the crap privilege?

hahaha...... anyone who's seen the gazillion threads about sh1t CFe service will know that's not true... try sorting out your core business rather than branching into the alton towers of extreme sports

Nope it'll be a second. MK had one 6-7 years ago, used up half the slope, wasnt great 2-3 decent hits init. Must have cost a fortune, was all made from wood.

I do see the point of parkour training venues. I don't see the point of doing it on snow.

parkour is skateboarding for even poorer kids.

Is this a f*cking joke!!!

When will they actually start the weekly park sessions back, get there heads out their arses and concentrate on what the place was built for........errmmm snowboarding and skiing.

Laughing stock those mangers at cfe are.

I have now stopped going as the place just does not give a toss. I hope the place goes bust and new people can move in.

F*cking jumping off walls.....what ever next.....probably absailing from the bloody rafters.

Prize Pricks!!! When will they learn, why dont you go and take a run and jump...........over a cliff

And if you do read this cfe management feel free to PM me, you HAVE ruined what was building up to be a good vibe and crew.

sooo.... ppl jumping like monkeys from metal-bar to metal-bar. add snow and ice to the mix (and shoe-treads compacted with snow) - I can't see an accident waiting to happen...

unless they're planning this for the area under the main-slope, which obviously wouldn't be a problem. oh, except that it's used as parking at mental times and using it for something would mean even more cars there and even fewer spaces...

Just goes to prove, its another well thought out idea by CFe management and also goes to show how out of touch they are with the paying public(and also their tennants)

Im thinking of getting a slush puppy machine set up in my garage and opening that to the public as direct competition!!!

Couldnt do any worse !!! £25 membership, £100 an hour ???

They've thought of that – crampons!!

Available from rental (and included in the price of the lesson), or bring your own if you've got them.

Er, what's that you say... "digging in peoples legs.." ?
Sorry, used at your own risk (it'll be in the small print somewhere.)
