Raging Buffalo was pretty good today. Their rope tow sucks though.... They had 2 jumps that were like 10-5 ft, 2 jumps that were like 5-10 ft, a 2 ft wide butter box, flat top about 10 ft long, and a down box about 10 ft long. The jumps were ok and had ok landings, but the landing for the rails were all icy and dug out.... overall it was good... and I tried my first backflip! landed on my skis and then my neck lol

Raging buffalo the snowboard park. yeah i wanted to go there back in the day but they had real dumb rules about no skis above 150cm and you couldn't use poles. So I have decided I'm never going there ever and it seems like it was the right idea.

ya dude i agree... people underestimate it but to the people in illinois its like a hood summer park that you can go to for just a day like timberlines park. its just dedicated park and even though theres alot of boarders there isnt much hate anymore
