I'm going somewhere this weekend to ski park. I'm from Mass so no matter what ive got a bit of a ride. Which one of these would be better if i want to go up film and make an edit.

Loon is more jumps than jibs.  You'd have more to choose from if you went to Snow.  But Loon's jumps are so amazing. they make you drop your damn load in mid air.

ya mt snow is dope.. ski there all the time but never been to loon wanted to go. but mount snow has alot of jibs and jumps both big and small. inferno has 2 big booters and the gulch has a nice 3 pack at the bottom so any park u chose is good.

loons park really isnt that great right now for it being top to bottom..

the new jump line is dope, and so is the jump at the top.. but there are only a few fun rails.. the up rail at the top and the flat down at the bottom.

it's pretty annoying at how geared towards snowboarders the park is.. the black canon rail after the up rail at the top, the canon rail next to the jump, the fact that the flat down box has no lip, and same thing with the staircase, esp the bonk to jersey barrier box... all are pretty much designed solely for snowboarders.. but since the whole park crew snowboards except for the guy with the fisher twin tips (i think).. then it doesnt really surprise me.

i just want some bigger rails features.

i ski at Loon every weekend so i LOVE it and it is sick. I went to Mount snow for a weekend and the Dew Tour set up was sick. so i don't really know but Loon is a shorter drive from Mass i think

well mt snows jumps are the dew tour jumps... i dont know for sure because i havent been to loon this year but i bet mt snows park is all around much better than loons. btw theres like 6 parks to choose from at mt snow too.

I'd hit loon, their jumps are ridiculously smooth.  Mt. snow is so big that they cant groom it at the same level.

MT snow grooms everything in every one of their parks every night. they have a cat going on nitro, inferno, and gulch simotaneously all through the night. i live at the bottom of carinthia 3 days a week, and I hear the cats all night long every night, its crazy. no matter how late i'm up, they're at it.
