Theyre getting a new park manager this year because the old one just left. Hopefully Peak Resorts will just ship someone down form mount snow and they might have a decent park. Or they will find some random homeless man to do it


thoughts?

the park actually want too bad this weekend. The last two jumps were perfect for floating flips or 5s on and the rails were pretty solid

Attitash should start caring about their park. I was just talking to park staff there, and they don't get any help.

the park blows there. easily one of the worst parks ive ever seen. the jumps are narrow, have no transition, the landings are tiny and there is pretty much no effort into maintaining anything. oh and plus all the rails/boxes have massive step-down jumps

there park was pretty fun today. They seem to be working pretty hard to make a good park with the features they've got. They need better rails and smoother lips for there jumps, but its getting better.

I think Chris will do a good job with the park as long as he doesn't make insane features. A park with good size jumps, nice long and steep landings, and normal rails would be nice for once.

Attitash needs to fire all the dumb hoodrat park crew and start off with a clean slate, skiing that shithole is embarrassing.

Went to Attitash today. The park was a shitshow. The first 2 boxes were ride-ons, the 3rd was wobbling side to side. There was an urban flatbox, which dropped a foot onto another flat down. 2 rails in the whole park, 1 with an absolutely terrible lip.

I don't really have anything to say about the jumps. They were on par for end of season. I hope they weren't like that all season.

yeah the rails were set up really shitty but the top two rails, the flat down box and the flat rail are fun to mess around on
The jumps were alright this weekend for this late in the year

and pay. Pretty sure the rail jam was just for some cans of non-perishable food for the food shelter. I was at the one at the beginning of the year last year and it was pretty legit.
