Ok im making this becuase i figure one thread per resort would ease up the clutter.

any way as of 12/15 windham has a jib park up w/ 2 lines. on skiers right you have a flat,drop,down rail, shotgun down rail, set up sorta like a urban, and a c box right. on the skiers left you have a rainbow rail, flat bar, and flat box. the take offs are groomed reall niice. thats about it for now

Deff, make that 2 pros, billy brown. Everyone is haveing the same problems with snow, but with 4 new high capacicity air compressors, we are moving something like 30,000 cfm water and 60,000 cfm air for snowmakeing. The new quad oppend today, a ride that was 9+ min to the summit of the east peak is now 4, this thing is fast!!!

When the snow finally does fly look for a great set up

ok, so the jib park got a face lift today with the addition of two new rails. the fruit by the foot rail got set up, and the new c rail was set up as well. so now it has a total of 5 jibs. the two new additions plus the flat box, shotgun, and c box set up

the pipe may be open, and cut w/ our new zaugg, the jib park will have 6 or 7 jibs, usually a flat box, flat rail, c rail c box, fruit by the foot rail, urban down rail. then we also have the warm up park open, which usualy have plenty of rails vairing in difficulty and size. also a good amount of jumps will be up, and hopefully growing in size as the week progresses. also the skier x course will be up on lower warpath. you can check out www.switchwindham.com as well for info

man conditions outside of park sucked on saturday. So many people and so much ice. Oh well, it was nice to ski. I saw a bunch of people on twins too. The new chronics look so nice up close.

Slope style returns to windham for sunday, and the first USSA CMS Pipe comp of the season. This year the park is looking great! the new park and pipe crew have done a good job.

OUr grooming and snow crew is one of the finest in the east, they have yet to give up and we have some of the finest snow right now in the east and are pushing 90% terrain being open!

PLUS THE PIPE IS BEING CUT BY OUR NEW PIPE CUTTER AND BY STRATTONS PARK GROOMER GUY!!!

i was there saturday. the warm up park was really nice. Three nice sized kickers but they didn't have any lips to them. There also was the c box, c rail, straight rail, flat down rail and a butter pad. The half pipe was a bit icy and the walls seemed a bit over-verted. Outside of the park was fun most of the trails had good snow cover
