Long parks with lots of flow. I don't understand how it could get any better.

I would rather have a short park and hop right back on the lift and do it again than Blackcombs "long" park (aka 5 features per run) and then an equally long goober infested ride down to the chair.

we have a short park, like 2-3 features depending on your line, but a nice rope tow that gets you back up top in a flash.

At blackcomb you can either take the catskinner chair which takes soooo long and you're totally out of it by the time you get to the top, or you can ski down to solar coaster which makes you pretty tired.

i would prefer a long park with lots of lines any day. ride the whole thing when you just want to rip and then hike different stuff when you want to learn something new or just session.

tow ropes do have a lot of advantages. its almost like you never really stop skiing because you are back up so quickly.

big park for sure why would you like to hit 2-3 features when you could hit 10?
