Is there anywhere to work on big stuff in the northeast? Like foam pits, tramps, or water ramps?

During the summer you can ramp at the Olympic training complex in Lake Placid, NY.

http://www.teamusa.org/about-usoc/u-s-olympic-training-center-lake-placid

There are trampolines there too and you rotate 2 hour ramp sessions with 2 hours on the tramps. The place is so much fun and if you're focused, you can learn a ton while you're there.

To elaborate on the OP, I'm really looking for somewhere where I can progress in the summer.

Oh, and the closer to VT, the better.

even though not east coast, still your best bet. I learned a ridiculous amount of tricks/ grab variations, not to mention how sick the atmosphere is. So much freedom, you basically go do whatever the hell you want.

Check this out. Green Mountain Gymnastics has just opened up a skier/snowboarder training facility.

That place looks sweet. There's a similar facility in Brattleboro (three tramps and a foam pit if my memory serves). I couldn't find a link to it, but if you're southern VT you could prob just check the yellow pages and call to figure out when they have open gym.

^This? I'm a Mount Snow guy, so if this place is legit, great.



And a lot of these places look good. The only reason I'm asking is because eventually I'll start going for flips and I need to find something soft to learn them on before snow.

So programs with coaching would be even better, I guess.
