ya that sucks. i would have found that parent and cussed my brains out at that dick. but not all parents are like that. a couple days ago i saw some parent coaching his little kid on 360 crosses. the kid was gettin pretty good air for how small he was. thats cool, but some people just suck.
Try what i did, i sent this email, and suggested lots of good ideas and i think they might really do something about it.

Ok. I am 16 and have been skiing since i was 9. I am very interested in newschool skiing, and am glad to see that a little more effort is being put into the terrain parks. However, I would really like to help with making the park areas safer and with the design of some of the features. First, with safety, I think there are couple problems that NEED fixed. First, about 85% of the people I have seen in the park areas have skied either around or over the features. Not only does this cause congestion, but it also ruins the lips on jumps when people ski over them. I have even seen quite a few people in the park that are very, very new to the sport, and the last place they should be is in there. I am aware that younger, and/ or less skilled skiers and snowboarders should have access to a terrain park, but as is stated more and more, they need to be segregated some what. A system that might work well for Brandywine, is something similar to what is used at Blue Mountain and Blackcomb’s The Highest Level Park. They have a special park pass that is required to enter the park. This pass is obtained by taking a class that goes over things such as park etiquette and other important knowledge for park riding. This would help with keeping people out who shouldn’t be there, and would make it much safer for the people who should.
As with the design of the park, I think you have the right idea with keeping the dude ranch area a real park, and the hill next to it more of a beginner area. However, many of the people that should be on the beginner side are in the more advanced section. This is where a park pass would work wonders. Another thing that I would love to see is a real tabletop jump that is of respectable size. I think a 40-50 foot table with two different take-offs would fit very nicely down by the lift. This would give experienced riders like me a jump to showcase our skills. The tables that are up now need more distance. The size of the jump makes it very easy to overshoot, and undershooting a jump is much safer than overshooting it and landing in the flats.
OK. Thank you very much for reading this, but I have one more comment to make. The no inverts policy has got to go. I am aware that it is due to insurance reasons, but skiing and snowboarding are evolving very fast and this is hampering people like me who are really trying to get good at what we love. There must be some way we could get around it. It might involve the strict use of helmets, or a waiver of rights, but I would really like to see something happen to allow certain people who are ready to do inverts be able to do them. No one wants to break the rules, and no one wants their pass clipped, as I have seen numerous times happen so far this year for inverts. I Think something like this might be able to be incorporated into a Park Pass, and would make Boston Mills & Brandywine a much more fun and entertaining place to ski.
Thank you very much for you time in reading this and responding, as I have tried to give suggestions to help solve problems instead of just complaining about them like I’m sure many do. Thanks Again,
Chris
'about 15-20 minutes after i'd started pushing, the thing came out of my ass. I felt so relieved i started to cry. now here's the funny part. Because the shit was so hard and so big, after it was out my body went into shock. I turned all clamy, my clothes and my body were soaked in sweat, and i started to shiver and spasm uncontrollably. I just sat back on the pot and decided to wait it out. I sat on the fuckign toilet for over an hour with sweat forming a puddle on the floor, and me feeling like i'd been shoved under snow with no clothes on.' Crystaline Skier
