They had like 6 or 7 rails in freeway this week, with 4 up top and back to back c-boxes, but nothin too big. The jumps were pretty big though, and you can't beat breck's pipe its perfection.

yea, not really a fan of one in the flow section, but 2 and 3 and that quarter are pretty sick. Those big ass ones over left are pretty insane also.

Has anybody hit that new transfer at keystone. I was thinking a big 180 truck driver over it would look sick as fuck. i haven't hit it yet though.

I was at breck yesterday and every other park at Breck besides Freeway sucked ass every jump was way way way too small....the baby park at keystone is way better... i always think i'm gonna like breck but every time i go i kick myself cause it always sucks takes forever to get anywhere and if you're not going throw it down in freeway it blows....my vote definately goes to Keystone!!!

we have the same dilemna - we arrive the 11th and leave the 19th.. where to go what to do.. Look for a little 12 year old throwing 7's and 9's browm Obermeyer jacket black giro on Armada Ween Sharks - he is hoping to finally get some jumps to cork, he could use some riding buddies.. We are staying Breck but will do Keystone and Vail a day or two..

Go to Vail for at least two days and actually do some skiing. Then spend a day or so at Keystone, because it has a better park than Breck. Then spend a day or something at Breck. Brecks rails are not even in contention with Keystones. Keystone hired a park guy that worked at Breck for the jumps, so they are obviously good, with a good smooth 4 jump line with the last one being a transfer gap. The pipe isnt very good, but lets face it, right now, nobody is purely a pipe skier.

from what i've seen it's probably 3rd jump left in freeway or the last one at vail.

Winter Park is epic right now. The jumps in DT are massive ( i think they are pushing 70 ish) The rails are smooothe, and the pipe is in the best shape it has ever been in. Check it out, it has changed a bunch over the past few years and is super sick

no not in my opinion rail yard is dope but keystone has way more variety and is so lapable and also breck is so perfect id say keystone and breck are first depending om how ur fellin then rail yard

my favorite is keystone, the jumps are so perfect, and the rails and stuff are all set up perfect too. i really dont like breck that much, the big jumps are all like really huge, and same with the rails, they are all really big or have big gaps on so you have to hit them going really fast and its just not fun. keystone's rails are perfect though. and steamboat is really fun too. but they dont have the best jumps. and vail's jumps are also sweet, but their rails are worse than brecks and just not fun.
so id say keystone is the best, then winterpark.

yea i generally aagree with you but i think learning tricks a keystone then bringing them to breck is really fun because you have so much more time off brecks jumps to try and make ur stuff look betta

yeah brecks jumps are sweet if you want really big jumps, but keystone's jumps are still pretty big and they are so perfect.

4 sho u just don't get the same hang time at keystone but brecks are intimidating to try new tricks off

copper needs to fix their third jump on the right it's just too hard to dial. it always seems freeway huge but i consistently overshoot it and double eject onto my face.

its getting annoying how much you talk about not skiing in the park whenever you get the cahnce to. i mean im not gonna join that cult or whatever, but i mean, why not go in the park once in a while and do some rails (unless you are hitting urban too)?

for copper to have the best park in summit they would need to hire breck's park crew

what is the best park now? keystone still has sweet rails but they closed the jumps and now they only have those shitty small jumps, so is vail a good place to go?

No question that breck has the best park in CO. I admit that if you arent that good it can be itimidating but that just means you need to sack up. The pipe is by far the best, the jumps the smoothest and a good selection of rails- way more than 7 I cant think of them all but I would say closer to 20.
