or Greek Peak? Just kidding I go to school in Ithaca and last year I made the mistake of buying a season pass to Greek Peak and it was a huge waste of money.

Lab is 56 minutes from me and Togg is like an hour and 5 minutes according to mapquest so basically the same shit.  I've never skiied at either but based on how shitty GP was, I plan on buying a season pass at either one of these places.

So just comparing the park which one is better and what are they like?

Hey, I hear you.

After this year, I can finally make a decision as to what terrain park I like better. Now, I can very confidently say that it's Lab.

I went 4 times throughout the season, fucking PRIME each time I went, even during the shittier weeks of the year. Each lip of each feature was clean and smooth as butter. Pitting in the lip/landings were quickly filled in by the park crew as the day went on and things got beat down. The jumps were great each time I was there.

I went to Togg 3 times and none were good for the park. Everything was set super urban, a lot of it was down. It could use a lot of hand work. The jumps were ok, but I wouldn't want to learn something new on them.

All in all, I'm considering getting a Saturday pass there next year even though its an hour and a half out from my house

Yea it was, they started off really well and were out there daily fixing stuff up. but once they finally got the main park up and running they didnt really touch anything and was all downhill from there. I give Lee props for all the work he put in, but when it comes to the rest of the park crew they didnt do anything near what should have been done.
