-2 down boxes one is 13ft and the other one is 23ft about the long one is super fun
They have also set up a small park on the south side on alpine bas.. All features are urban here:

- Kind of a P.V.C yet it it metal and much wider.

Nope you don't need a park pass. You won't be able to hit any unmarked tree runs yet we need more snow. The Edge though does have some tree skiing open you may want to check that out.

Today was not good do not recommend coming here at all.
The Northpark was closed they have taken everything out of it and have started more snowmaking. You have Alpine Bas park which includes:
Flat box
Flat rail
Up rail
Up box
A Jump that is not even worth calling a jump
Flat box
and a round metal rail that is flat (their are pictures of it in my profile)
Now the Lowell Thomas park is their ,but it is not worth it includes:
Cannon Box
Battleship
Rainbow
All in all the park needs more stuff. On the Upside though snowmaking is continuing in the South Side Park and this North park snowmaking is for the better.

Well the jumps have all been built for the south side park. Opening date planned for the 23rd, if it does not open this will be open for sure.
You got two 3 pack jumps lines in the North Park so you can hit 6 jumps all in one be park line. Or you can take a battleship and then an urban flat box and then the next 3 jumps. The jumps are a good size and a lot of fun. Then you will either have a rail garden on alpine bas which includes 8 different rails/boxes or it could be moved the run next to the jumps.

If the south side park opens looks like it's going to be a 4 pack of jumps.

I didn't make it up their. Went to Jibstyle at Pakenham instead ,but my friends who got up to Tremblant said the jumps are really nice the 3rd and 4th being the best.
Here are some pics:
http://www.tremblant.ca/galleries/images/snowparks/index-e.htm

So now we got:
Alpine bas park which has 8 boxes/rails.
North Park which has a 3 pack jump line 4 rails/boxes and 3 other jumps
The South Park which has the 4 pack jump line among the other rails/boxes
For a grand total of 36 features with more to come.


I'll be heading up on Wednesday night to ski for the next 4 days.

The You Look Good snowboarding competition is this weekend so the South Side jumps will be closed what a shame... but on a better note we have received 30cm of snow in the last week! Conditions are amazing and their is powder to be skied! Snowmaking has been going on and from the looks of it their getting ready to put in the jib line for this weekend to compensate for the closures. I'll see what we got when I get up their Saturday.

If anyone want to hit some big jumps get to tremblant. Lots of added kick to the jumps and the 3rd of the 4th is huge, saw a kangaroo flip go down on it saturday.
They added a skiercross, yeah it's kinda gay rather see the rails there ,but it's fun if you have a bunch of friends to do a race.

If your under 16 and your parents have to sign for you, just go to customer service before you going skiing so your parents can sign the waiver. It's only $15 bucks for the season.

For everyone who wasn't up their this weekend it was amazing, i skied friday-sunday and it was upwards of Plus 20 all 3 days at the top of the mountain and boiling at the bottom.

Parks:

South Park and Alpine Jib Line are both closed.

North Park is melting fast, First Jump and the flat box are still good. grass patches in between the jumps and you have to bomp to get enough speed to hit all three while dodging the grass.

Everything else:

Bumps were amazing, super slushy, grand pri was the best, good coveraged but getting there you were pretty much skiing on mud.

Expo and Cosak are now closed.

Snow's melting fast and their gettting rain the entire week, not looking good for next weekend, could only be bovelan, bochemen, Mecola, and possibly grand pri if they can move snow so you can get there.
