i was only at marquette once in the late spring and I have to say their park was way overhyped. They had some good stuff but just not what I expected/was told. That was two years ago though and really late spring. The stuff they did have was pretty awesome but a little too crazy for me.

I drive the 8 hour round trip to spirit, sometimes, cuz there park kills mine in ontario, and the passes are like 200 cad so its way worth it to buy one even if you only go 6 or 7 times

Marquette is sweet. 100 miles away Ripley builds some big jumps.

my friends and i can only make the 20 hour roundtrip drive to marquette for superpark, and it looked like the sex for that event, but when we are stuck in ohio, snowtrails is off the charts (i know it sounds bias considering my name). we have 2 really solid comps per year with a jump built specifically for the comp, and the park is in great condition all year long getting rearranged a couple of times throughout the season.

2 years ago there wasnt anything major going on, last year the park was completely revamped with new rails and all new kicker lines. come back up and you won't be disappointed.

I live about 3 miles from Tyrol and also work there and its a pretty fun place to mess around on...nothing big but plenty of stuff. Cascade has a superpipe(which i didnt think was that great) and they have lots of rails but it seems that they arent set up that well. Good thing is its easy to get in free in both of those places. But my pick is tyrol over cascade

As it stands Marq. is the best. I guess Boyne is going to step it up big time this year but I'm sure they'll fuck it up somehow (hopefully not though)

Marquette tops in midwest for sure.

As for some others:
Bittersweet is good for southern Michigan Indiana. Nubs is quality but way busy. Boyne this year may do well there are rumors that they will take it seriously this year.

marquette has much more money for it and does lots more but Ripley is definetly up there - and jumps get taken care of way better

hey we made this shitty website last season because our web designer sucks, the lighting is poor in some of the shots, but it shows you whats up.
