well nothing is really open, i believe they opened horseshoe bowl for hike to acess only, no clue when they plan on running the t-bar.

i would say check out freeway, i think they are going to leave the dew tour course up for a little while, i could be wrong on that though.


really i would say check out key if you want rails, they are opening fredas, and I-70 in A51 on friday i believe, so that gives them even more options in their already sick rail set up.

if you want to ski jumps all day breck is the place to go.

i'd say go to keystone for jumps right now too. they have their big line open, a fun medium line, and 2 small/medium jumps at the bottom that are usually hit or miss. giving you 5 jump hits a run if you want, with a shorter lap than breck.

plus if they open the incubator and i-70 this friday there might even be some little mini jumps as well. I went to breck a few weeks ago and I don't think it's worth going there to ride park until dew tour is over with and they finish opening up park lane.

Keystone big line of rails next to the meduim jumps is so god damn on point right now. that first urban is batshit insane but soo fun the down flat is decent and the huge cannon is like the funnest rail i have ever hit. also the Down Flat down rail that goes right on the last down and the s rail are the tits. I haven't really been hitting jumps yet this season but all my buds say they are the tits. I mostly haven't hit jumps because i really fucked myself up last early season on jumps. I will probly wait till park lane if full open to hit jumps. Last i saw the knuckles for 5 and 6 and built they just need to make the jump and add rails to the bottom half. But go to keystone.

Heres the low down on Breck's Park Lane as of monday(yesterday). Triple line up top with all the same rails from before, theres nothing for a good 250yards then two pretty fun hippish jumps that you can take small or big, finally the bottom two jumps and the last one is prime.

im sure by tomorrow there will be more rails to fill in the gaps between the jump lines.
