I flew up there to skate that place, it was amazing, and damn gnarly. You gotta skate it to understand how sick some of the stuff they do in this vid is.
 The BAKU Barriers are there to. Good times

Do these plans have anything to do with expanding out of the North end of the tunnel? Because it looks like they have cleared a bunch of space out there as if they were going to lay concrete, and that would be sick.

a couple weeks ago a guy was working on it and said he was planning on putting a high to low quarterpipe kinda like the sixside one(on the left from where everyone drops in) on the northwest edge area of the tunnel. a sideways extension of the existing ramp on the northeast wall was new and setting while i was there. looked like fun

^What ice nine said.  I go to sixside almost weekly, and the guys building it are friends with the Leeside guys and they really want to put a waterslide in too.  And the waterslide is seriously the single best skateboarding obstacle I have ever skated.

Sixside looks amazing, I see what you mean with the waterslide, looks really fun. It looks like soon Leeside will have it's own version, I can't wait.

I hadn't watched the video yet, pretty good vibe and great filming and skating. Who did that insane wallride transfer at the end?

The waterfall at sixside looks really hard to skate, I'd like to try someday. Do you still have to know someone to get to skate it?

The guy who did the wallride is Adam Hopkins, he is seriously on another level. He can do that transfer anytime, I saw him do it 4 times in a row just casually skating one night.

that place is ten times harder to skate than it looks....I went to that thing last year and realized that I shouldn't have bothered to bring my skateboard and should have brought ear plugs.....
