Now i dont know if this has already been attempted but if you were given one run to take right now, would you go for a long perfectly groomed park run or slash through deep pow and drop cliffs in the back country?

i personally would choose the deep pow run

pow for sure, the only reason why i ride park as much as i do is because we have no pow here. if pow was available, i'd be in that shit all day

Not knowing what skiing real Pow is like, I have to say park. I would kill to be able to ride pow though, it looks so much more fun than skiing park.

Skiing in Europe most of the time means that I get more powder to park so I prefer the old pow treelines and a few drops to the usually average parks that most resorts have. Also good pow days are rare why spend it in a park where you can ride any other day?!

Park duh. I thought this was newschoolers not TGR.

Actually, the best run I could ever take would be a pow run down to the park.

Used to be a super popular feature. Watch any movie from 1999 to 2004 and there will be at least one rail off a cliff.
