lol just because keystone pumps cheddar into their opening parks and just because key/breck have better parks doesnt mean it's better than utah. If you're tryin to train CO is dope, if youre tryin to have fun and ski pow utah is da best.

Wow. Fuck CO. That's better than my home mountain last season. Most East coast resorts were better than my home mountain last season though, haha.

CO park crews are true professionals at what they do..... I like to refer to them as "Park Engineers" really....

I'm injured right now though... :-( will be up asap....  post feedback here from opening day though!!!

you have to remember keystone is pretty much the most legit park in the world, besides mammoth. although i wish they had more space to spread their features out a little more, sort of more mammoth style, for longer runs instead of lots of short laps.

btw that flat down box looks like it would be sick to hit from the side onto the down, look at how perfect its carved out

jesus that looks fucking prime for an opening day setup. Shit, not bad for a midseason setup at some of the mountains around the east

Ummm, Breck? Best jumps anywhere? Seriously, fuckin anywhere...and the polls last year had Park City beatin Mammoth. Both of them, and Keystone, can't compare to Breck in any way.
