I have heard some complaints about Granite lately. Specifically about the landing being flat. Just wondering if anything has changed.

tyrol's park is pretty fun, their "big jump" is real fun

..... BUT the main lift is broken, therefore i would probably not go to tyrol...

granite is notoriously sick. they have a park thats all urbans. also alot of jumps of different sizes and a all box park thats real fun. also some sick pillow lines if you know when and where to look.

Went to Chestnut last weekend. We thought it would soften up better than Granite or Tyrol. One of the best set ups in the midwest. Only 3 hrs from Milwaukee.

In my opinion Granite Peak is far better than Tyrol basin. Tyrol basin still has good parks for the midwest but Granite has far more jumps and better made jumps. And Granite also has a Jib garden so to speak with 13 hits I think but you can not hit all in one run. I ski at Granite alot and have been to Tyrol once in my opinion Granite is better with more features more parks and more fun I think. They have a seven hit jumpline there and a competition park and Jib Garden and a nice 50 foot to knuckle jump.
