heres my overall opinion of okemo moutain resorts terrain park and pipes:
pipe- okemo has the pipe on lockdown, thats never a problem, except for the fact its always a huge chuck of ice, but what pipes isn't, okemo definitly has one of the best pipes in the east.
rails- the rails this year are ill, most of them are set up well, the new stairset is dope, could be a bit bigger but what can you do, the c box was set up real well now its kinds skectchy cause the jump is mad close, on noreaster all the rails are smooth except for the flat down flat box, that shit is so sketch, the jump is like 6 feet from the box, on that thing you wanna go as slow as possible since the kink is really abrupt, so the jump should be close allowing you to do that, because you have to come in so hot you clear the whole landing, the flat box is set up nice, the 40' up rail is perfect, the flat down box is in a spot where a jump should be, but is set up pretty nice, the trap box is way better this year but the setup could be better, the jumps on is abrupt and the landing is too close to the rail, the u box is set up as good as it can be but is a relativly useless feature, tree jib could be fun but the jump up to it makes it so you cant go high at all, the flat down rail is perfect, also the s rail and truth rail need to go up somewhere if possible since they are two of the best rails. overall, the rails are dope. oh and i almost forgot the wallride, it got the right kind of surface on it now, but the transition is shitty, when it first opened it was sick, easy to get to the top, now it like running into a wall. but overall the jibs are nice.
JUMPS- this is where the park is lacking right now and every year. the east coast open had the best jumps okemo has ever seen, they need to take note from those and places like waterville, stratton, and any place out west on how to build good jumps. the jumps right now on the top part of nor easter are decent, but not trickable, why not push all that snow together and make maybe two good 50 ft tables instead of 3 medeoker step ups and a small hip. on lower noreaster the first step down has a crazy lip, its smooth then you hit the lip and it kicks you wierd, and the landing is mad flat, that spot is illmatic for making a good jump cause you can make a huge landing, take adavantage of it, the next two tables are the best in my opinion, but they arent big at all, you cant spin more than a 5, again why not push both together and make one big jump, the last table is nice, but is just small in general so isnt great, plus its tough to hit and have enough speed to slay the wallride. overall i highly recommend okemo builds jumps similar to those of east coast open, look at other mountains that kill it with the jumps, i just went to waterville and their 45 foot table is amazing, check that out or any place out west and build them like that, and please make bigger jumps. Today a park ranger also told us that the big jumps will be on blind faith, PLEASE DO NOT DO THAT, no one wants to go to south face, please put them on noreaster with the rest of the good features.
Overall, okemo is killin it with the rails and pipe, the flow of the park is much better than in years past, improve the jumps and you got what may be the best park in the east.
