Default Moving sliders and kickers

Is it just me or has everything shifted around over the last few weeks?
The small kicker is doing a titanic impression.......
Big kicker seems to be pointing more towards the shore.....

Anyone know of any plans to build anything good for next season?

I don't know what's up with the baby kicker, but's a bit easier to ollie over now. Still fine for all the grom's though. Me and Mark S fixed the red slider on the weekend, and the right hand kicker was probably moved a bit for that Big Air high jump comp so people can cut later without going off the side. Just lay back and launch off it dude!!
I don't know if they are gonna build anything new, it's taken them the whole season to get the beetle in the water but it's still not in the right place, so I doubt they're in any rush to give themselves more work, isn't that right Curler!!

jbski seem to have planning permission in for a second cable and from the diagram it looks like it might be going clockwise .
