How do places like Carinthia/Stowe/BB compare to west coast resorts, in terms of number of features/ creativity of features/ size of features, etc?

I can only speak for stowe and carinthia, but they had alot of stuff overall. just kind of proportionally downsized from the features at a place like PC or Breck or Keystone

Carinthia definitely, but Stowe's is really good too, and it also has a lot of smaller parks scattered around.

No park is neccesarly the best park, it's what you perfer. If you want a park full of rails you go one place and jumps another.

I shred Loon too, and I love their park, but they set up the DUMBEST feature, like a single barrel flat rail in between two barrels, and a staircase in the tranny of a wallride, however, they have jumps on lockdown.

Killington just needs bigger jumps, and if they had their end of the year rail setup open all winter, then they would be up there but until then not as much

killington need to up their shit in the early season. i went there for 4 days mid december and was so dissapointed to find no park at all besides 7 or 8 baby rails. the only legit looking rails in the whole place was the rails to riches setup, which wasnt open to the public. locals were claiming they didnt have enough snow but thats bullshit, my home park in OHIO opened with 25 or so features on dec 9. just lazyness on killys part IMO

yes. its bullshit because Killington did NOT have a bad early season considering snow, but the Rails 2 Riches setup was insane, the early season park was really fun tho because of the poma, but i also just learned to hit rails this season so i had a ton of fun

killington had a sweet season this year but the parks in the beginning of the year are always beat. they have the small park and a rail park set up. dreammaker is always legit as hell but its never to creative. i love the stash just cuz its something you rarely see but it gets old after a while

yeah inferno is amazing, along with the rest of carinthia. carinthia in general needs more, bigger rails though. everything's so short and simple. ive never understood why mountains are okay building enormous jumps but no rails with more than 1 or 2 kinks

anyway loon and waterville are also pretty awesome

killington was run by new management this season so thats why it took them longer to put shit up probaly. last year they had more shit set up overall and more stuff was up throughout the season.

haha, thats where my brother tore his acl a day after our birthday. I was in vermont for two days and he goes and does that on a cannon box type thing with a really steep landing. He went to fast up it and completely missed the almost nonexistent landing and landed pretty much flat.

Yeah, noone ever hit that. Mostly because that means missing the ONLY jump in the entire park, but also because you had to go 1 mph in order to even come close to a landing. They also groom their park MAYBE, once every other week. They don't do the best job... However they do have night skiing so I can get up there after school...
