Okemo Park Update

I just was on the Okemo Parks FB page and saw they added a jump line of 45, 55, and 60 feet. Has anyone seen or rode these yet? Are those actual legitimate measurements?  I will be up there this weekend for New Year's and would love to have some big hits up there. For those who have seen them, how do they look? 

Any pics?

Yeah that seems about right on the size. maybe more like 35, 45 and 55/60, but its whatever. I hit the 45 and 55. They are really nice jumps. the 60 is huge though. gotta man up and just hit it though. There's also a step up as the last feature in the park. Its probably like 40-50 feet and super easy to hit

yeah people have, just no one cares to post or look in regionals. I hit the 60 footer today. Felt so good to finally commit and not case it, which hurts a fuck ton. for these jumps you have to lean into the front of your boot alot cause right at the lip it curves up a bunch

The first two are alright, the third is built kinda sketch, really short landing on it. The step-over at the bottom is probably the best jump at Okemo right now.

flat, short landings that hurt a lot.

thats the best way I can describe them.

more like a 30 ft skimmer, into a 40 ft table, into a 45 ft table.

the 3rd jump is the right idea. Good cheesewedge with good kick but its ruined by a flat 20 ft long landing. shit hurts!

the rails on noreaster are way fun tho.

I sprained my ankle yesterday on the second to last jump because i overshot the landing which was way too small.

i was there yesterday, the rails on timberline were super fun

they say 20, but more like a 10 ft jump (too small for anything)
battleship box
flat box or rainbow box
down pipe
slight up box
flat bar
flat up flat bar

Nor' easter was ok, the jumps hurt so bad though, pretty flat landings, they also seem a little smaller than what they are saying on the site

45 ft step down (no pop) more like a 30ft drop to a kinda flat landing
50 (45) ft table
60 ft table (50ft), definetly the right idea, but you need to land the first jump cleanly and then skip the second jump to clear it
flat down or DFD bar. (reallly fun)
up box (kind need to skip it to hit the step up)
45 ft (35 ft) step up, best jump in the park, very trickable

^you dont need to skip any features. you can hit every feature with no speed problems. wax your skis or stop speed checking like a noob.

the jumps could be really fun, except the landings are just horrible.

Nope, absolutely free, and it literally takes 5 minutes.
