I know at my home mountain a Mt. Rose, there are almost no park skiers, so i was wondering how many there were in other places...

haha shit that sucks so hard.  When I went back out East we drove past thunder ridge and it was small as shit.  Being from CA that hill looked so damn small.  I pity you man.  My Dad said it's so crowded too because he grew up on the East, so you wait in a long ass lift line for a small ass mountain. 

My mountain doesn't have many park skiers but we are all pretty core, so everyone knows everyone.  Works out.

no joke you can see the top from the parking lot also when the lifts are too crowded I walk up the hill takes about 6 min the lift line takes about 12 min then it's go so fucking slow it takes 3 min to get up 320ft o were getting a rail this year so I've heard.

haha i made that 8 foot flat this past winter at thunder ridge ( i worked in maintance) they wantd something for "beginers to do"  you dont know how hard i tried to make then make new rails/reposition stuff, and it obviously didnt work, i did get them to save the fdf, they were throwing it out becasue they said no one was good enough to hit it, so i got them just make it about 2 feet shorter, still a failure though

maybe 5 out of every thousand ski park
you are looking at maybe 15-20 park skiers...


it's pretty much the crew that i roll with, like 10 of us, maybe, and then a whole rack of gapers.

no offense but thats kind of a bitchy thing of her to say. what place is she in to say youre not a true skier? anyone who loves skiing is a true skier. gaper, backcountry shredder, rail rat. anyone who loves it.

epic fail, meant to put that in another thread.

but my answer to this thread is that there are between 6 and 10 park skiers who are consistently at my mountain. probably less actuallly.

People with twins - people with regular skis (1-50)
people who shred the park-people who ski the park (1-10)

and if you include boarders
park-no park (1-5)

probably like 10.  We have park passes and all the racers get them for free.  Hence, everything in the park turns shittier than it already is.

I hope that works.  We are getting a new triple chair that is replacing the two 50 year old t-bars.  I personally would rather have the t-bars for quick laps when the park sucks/ is closed.
