You can't really compare EC parks to WC parks.

agreed. West coast vs east coast is so uncomparable. West coast is going to win any day just due to much bigger snowfall, resorts, budgets, etc.

I totally agree with this guy though. Mt. snow has a decent park for the east but as a mountain, its such a god awful mountain. The terrain sucks. They have that one little area the north face or whatever which is ok. The conditions suck this year. Even when they are good i hate mt snow just due to the unlimited crowd of fucking little kids who think there good when they suck. I also rode some chair there and hte back of the chair was angled forwards making it the most uncomfortable ride in my life.

People that only ski out west always think the east sucks. Yeah the snow sucks here, the mountains are smaller. But the amount of terrain that Carinthia offers is amazing. The whole face is all park. Its pretty much a whole mountain is all park. People that have not skied it cant talk.

It's just it bugs the shit out of me when people from the east coast bitch about how bad they're hill is when they ski like 7 springs, mount snow, stowe or some other nice place bitch i live in the midwest there is like 3 good parks in the whole region. East coast has pretty good sized "mountains" midwest don't got shit.
