a basins park is a joke. 4 maybe 5 rails and a 10 ft jump with the most rutted out landing ever.

its not that big of a joke, just because its not breck or key doesnt mean its not good. i've gone there every weekend in may the past few seasons, and those days are always the most fun days of my season!

it's got some good rails, just don't expect much jump wise, they had a fun up rail last year.

and im talking about a-basin. just a warning though, the parking lot is crazy, everyone tailgates, but most of those people only take like two runs on the mountain, so don't let the crowded lot fool you, it's not that crowded on the mountain.
