the little kids on the mountians who go into the park and get in the way is super annoying get them out so the real skiers can ski.  all they do is roll over the jumps and mess them up and they can't even ski rails. do what stratton does make you go through a 15minute course to actaualy get a pass so you can go in the park this will turn away any of em uhhhhh

newbs need a beginner park thats tottally seperate from the main park.  cuz i cant say i dont want them to ride park because everyone starts out a begginner.  they just need a park to get up to snuff with the better guys and girls.

your hill just needs separate parks...beginner, intermediate and advanced. because if they never tried, they would never gets good. just have a park pass system for the advanced park...thats how my hill does it, works really good.

that is an idea that i have heard of for some time.  I cant tell you how many times at PC i have seen total BOZOS putting themselves and others in harms way by stopping in blind spots etc.  A classic example is the video last year of a guy doing  540 and tapping a little girl on the head and going an additional 180.  Luckily the girl didnt get decapitated.

  Instead of areas like RCR pulling jumps there should be a program to make it safe for every one and having people get (or earn) park passes.

i agree with crookedboner and ride-rider

like last year our park had 2 differnt parts, one with littler jumps and a few boxes, and the other with like 60 foot tables and lots of rails

but this year we have a park pass that you have to watch a 15 minute video and pay 5 bucks to get, and you have to show it to someone every time you go into the park

it seems like a lot of mountains are doing a level system now too. thats def the best way to handle it so that the kids just starting can be on easier stuff with kids of the same skill level. and plus it keeps them from getting hurt and from just being in the way in the real park where they could hurt other people by skiing down the landings and cutting people off etc.

^^ haha you took the words right out of my mouth! or hands, or whatever. but the point is i definately agree with you about the whole little kid situation (especially at blandford) but like someone up there said everyone has to start off as a begginer. i ski stratton and thats definately a plus++++++( by plus i mean a good thing)
