So wisp recently banned all inverts so as a way to rebel everyone has been flipping recently so if you come to wisp do LOTS of flips. Just to warn everyone. And yes feel free to poach the park. No passes needed.

I was joking about the poaching part... Horrible idea cause when they come to warn you about inverts and see you have no pass they will call the cops they dont fuck around with that stuff.

Same rule applies at Roundtop, Liberty, and Whitetail. Whether they enforce it is a different story.

As long as I don't "see" it, it doesn't happen lol.  Enforcing it is hard for me due to the fact there are a lot of riders that can do them well at Roundtop.

It's a liability issue and an insurance reason.  Would you rather Wisp ban flips for take out the park?

we would rather they realize its not 1995

honestly tho..not sure if i can take the insurance/liability excuse reason anymore. There are way worse off resorts with alot less money nowadays that allow them. Heck, Windham has the bag jump to practice inverts.

Wisp probably has a new insurance company for the mountain or their insurance policy changed. I honestly don't think the high-ups care about people doing flips but they don't want to risk losing insurance and have a liability issue. Hell, i used to go to Wisp all the time because of the ability to do flips. I learned how to throw backflips there and for the longest time they had some of the best park skiers around (Keep in mind, I'm over the hill and this was the late 90's early 00's)
Besides corks/bios > back/frontflips.
