Was looking at the ruins of that thing this week when we rode Blue Velvet. Blast from the past.

all of them?! Are you referring to the GLC drop? or maybe the Canadian Open step-down gap? Or Canadian Open "hecklers rock". Or A-line drop? Or the Dirt-Merchant pre-hop drop? You gotta be moar specific!
As you're heading up to garbanzo lift it's a drop about halfways up to the right hand side. I think it was taken out of a video and just used in the outtakes. It's really big off of a rock face.
kenny smith in one of the coastal crew vids I think, can't remember which though
Oh that thing. Looks committed. Was also wondering where that was from.
Edit found it. About 20 seconds in.

Isn't that Gargamel (or something like that?!) and not in the park. I think it was Moreland that rode it to his house in Seasons...?
Morland was riding Gargamel in the Collective, that is not in the park it's a little up the road on top of cougar mtn, it's really fun.
That Kenny Smith line in the video is next to the Garbo lift. You can still see the moss clearing off the rock but the landing has pretty much been taken back by the earth.
That’s an insane looking line in person. Saw that last year and wondered if it was in a video somewhere. Wow.
I did it switch.
always wondered about that line. pretty nutty looking.
speaking of lines filmed in Whistler... there was one web edit a few years ago, before Finn was even racing in juniors, that showed a bunch of people railing berms in Whistler. There was one of Finn just absolutely flying into a berm, nailing so perfectly, it looks like he hit light-speed and dissapears out the other end. It was cool. Anyone remember that?! I think the berm may have been on the upper section of Original Sin, as you come down the rock faces, before crossing the ski run to the big step-up photo spot...
Always loved that bit of the movie, cool trippy backing tune too.
