Just to get a hype train going, my friend is on the park crew there and says that Mt. Ellen will have a jump in the park when it opens Friday. Hopefully they will open up a lot more rails in there too.

sugarbush plans to open mt ellen december 18th and i am guessing that the park will be moved there where it usually is.

they have close to 50 trails open right now (to the person who couldnt tell from the site, i hope youre joking)

and they have three things set up at the base of lincoln peak right now leftover from the railjam on saturday.
a decent length down bar
a down flat down
a fat down box

all features are setup with an urban style kicker (i like this mostly, but i would love to have a gap to box like other resorts so that i can attempt spins on with confidence. i hear that this doesnt happen though... )

It would be real great if the park crew could make the jump line in the beginning of the park once they push the jumps, like it was two or three years ago, with that triple line. It was very similar to the triple line in the beginning of the park lane park at breck. It was a little annoying with the set up they had in the past, where the second or third jump was two kickers directly next to each other, apposed to three jumps in a straight line. Maybe others agree maybe not. I am pumped about the dfd and other new jibs they got.

just got back a little bit ago. and sadly there is not a jump in the park they got set up. yet..

park is setup on rim run a little ways down, and it has, in order:

traffic block bonk
dance floor spine with bar on the top
hip to dance floor landing
small (maybe 10') urban down rail with donkey dick
a small (tiny) up rail (made only for snowboarders because of the lip)

really skate inspired and mainly for snowboarders, but if you want rails, lincoln still has the 4 better features.


i stayed away from the park and found a few really nice stashes in the woods. i would say the pow was over my boots in some areas. my last run still had some freshies as well.

not gonna lie the mt ellen park was kind of a let down but I still had mad fun. took a while to get used to some of those features but the bonk was nice and that little bitch rail ended up being pretty fun.

headed over to lincoln later then they told us we had to leave and they closed the rails. damn.

It was pretty good. The upper mountain was skiing really nicely, I was just lapping mid-stations. Once you get lower down it gets kinda weird crusty though. The more it gets skied the better it'll get though.

you guys should write this stuff on the Sugarbush Parks! page on facebook, because the head of the park crew is the creator so he sees everything and it is more direct feedback.
ill be there with no poles, wearing a red racing speedsuit with my pants pulled up. full tilt boots, goggles sagged so far that they cover my top lip, scott skis cuz theyre the shit now that tom wallisch is sposored by them, skull candy headphones and all the other cool shit. o and ill be afterbanging all over the place

I heard that the park is supposed to be better after christmas.

It was kind of a let down yesterday. It wouldn't have been so bad if it weren't cold and really windy, though.
