To day i went park skiing all day with some of my friends. It was only the second time in the park and i can do ones and some boxes, but overall i didn't have as much fun as when i am skiing pow an or trees. Doing the same thing over and over agian got really old and kinda boring. What do you guys like better?

east coast is shit this year, so ive been a park rat so far. i really like lapping the park though, you try to push it a little more each run

i guess you gotta ballance it out, so nothing gets old. trees and pow get old after a while, so then ski some park. and so on and so forth

after skiing all mtn and bc for my first 10 years of skiing it got boring. park is something new and i find skiing park is harder ie forcing yourself to go big, more techniqual tricks. etc. i find around here the reason why most people dont ski the park is because they can't force themselves to do it i.e hit the jump and spin. park is so addicting once you start trying stuff.

the northwest backcountry is amazing this season. i haven't really spent much time in the park. But a good blend is what I usually like.

january was all bc cause of the amazing amount of powder we got, so far february is a lot of park. i like bc more than park tho cause i could ski park on any day, but it's not every day that we get 2 feet of powder.

yeah im an east coaster and i pretty much stay in the park all day.... but skiing nice powder can match skiing a rail anyday
