Kodak Sports Park - aerial ski launching ramps
This is part of the McKenzie-Intervale Ski Jumping complex, also known as Kodak Sports Park. The ramps are called 'kickers' and the jumpers use these to train themselves to do tricky aerial moves. They land in a 750,000 gallon heated pool that has an aeration system to make the landings softer. You can see the bubbles coming up in the picture. That happens just before the jumper takes off.
