I ski bachelor, in oregon, and we hardly have enough snow for our parks,so we've been harvesting snow from other areas, and puttin a lot of rails in. Lately we've been skipping the park (nearly 2 miles in length), and headed straight for the slopestyle and halfpipe. Whos park had an awesome year?

oh man, it's mammoth, for sure. by far the most creative setups i've ever seen. Jibs Galore is the sickest run ever. rails coming out of the woods and shit, if you can go, i'd check it out.

^ mammoths jibs were setup horrably, i found that tremblants jibs were set up way better and they had more of them, that shit through the trees at mammoth, you had to jump like 2 feet up to some of the rails

mtn creek put up a decent park this year. tons of jibs that were rotated all season, the massive wallride, decent kickers, and the sickest of pipes. only complaint would be the kickers to the rails, really low. prob just like mammoths, they are both owned by intrawest theres gotta be some influence there. 4 out of 5 stars

Snowmas / Buttermilk Snowmass isnt as good as years past in my opinion but ypu can hit 13 rails in one run or 7 rails and 3 jumps (35'-60') with only a 4 minute turn around. The pipe is sick. Buttermilk has the x games slopestyle and pipe with 4 other segments of the park above and next to the x-course. And it seems that they have built a 20-30 foot acid drop to quarter pipe followed by a jump set that ranges from 70-105 feet.

hands down breck. theres no way around it the park kicks ass. theres 5 jumps, 45-75 feet about 20 rails, a huge hip, a quarter pipe 18 feet tall, tree jib, and a 450 foot super pipe. i mean what more can you ask for? everything is perfect and always is. so every place else can forget this title. and buttemilks pipe stinks, sorry.

Alpine Meadows has a solid park, the jumps are prefectaly shaped, like go off and blindford yourself safe and shaped. But it isnt creative as it could be.
Keep it fresh
Check the steeze
Keep the flex
I got a fresh wax.
Can't it help me get some fresh tracks?

i'll toss in a 2nd vote for tremblant. 3 parks. in the expert park, most importantly there areno gapers, perfectly shaped booters, a whole variety of super smooth, tech, large, and innovative jibs, and a 420 foot superpipe. im enjoying every second i spend there.

Breck is tits right now. The booters are so nicely shaped and the pipe is just amazing...just haul ass and it will float you high above the wall. The rails aren't too bad either this year, s, c box, crazy kink, etc.

100 'snow features'. that doesnt mean jumps. also, 46 of them are in the mini park, and i'd be willing to bet any decent skier would take 1 lap at most through the mini park. also, what can a 'snow feature' be? a jump? yes. a roller? yes. a banked turn? yes. so thats a deceiving number.
i'd be willing to bet that out of those 100 'snow features', there's maybe 20 worthwhile jumps. which is still awesome, don't get me wrong. but if there actually were 100 quality jumps at bear mtn, all the pros would be flocking there, and we'd hear wayyyyy more about it than we actually do.

to the guy with the penguin icon, tremblant has almost no rideons... most of tremblants rails and boxes have like 5+ feet gaps in between them, when i said they were setup bad because i did a rail that was fuckin corrked it was fucked up... theyw ere pretty gay cause it would be almost impossible to do anything over a 270 on to those rails

pc has to be one of the best setups, they keep it fresh and new, they put new boxes and rails up throughout the whole season and they keep their jumps really nice and keep them up to there normal sizes, and the superpipe is sick the whole season
