Hey,
I was just wondering how many of youre home town mountains allow inverts in the park? I dont think ours does, but the patrol are usually cool about it.

PEACE

at bittersweet, in MICHIGAN!!!!!!!, as long as you dont suck/arent stupid you can throw whatever you want, on almost whatever you want. Last year, there was a lift nobody ever used, we built a kicker on the corner of the down-ramp and flipped in a few times, then the liftie said to stop until the lift closed.

at my home resort in otario - Talisman - does allow inverts. along with Mount Saint Louis, they are the only two in southern ontario that do - I think. Snow Valley didn't seem to care, but finding a jump big enough to get off the ground is a different story. It is an insurance issue here. but some resorts are really anal about it.

Blue mountain is brutal.

You can't even do a misty. Hell my friend got in trouble for doing a handplant.

I got my pass clipped for sticking a flair in the pipe last year. There was only three people in the park too.

Blue sucks ass...

Terrain park is good though...

they are just lazy and dont really care, but if brad or grady gets on their case, they will get picky, which is what i expect to happen a lot next year.

well inverts were once explained to me as a trick where your hips are above your head during some part of the trick... now at sunday river even an off axis trick might get you in trouble depending on the patroller, i mean kids throw all sorts of stuff and most of the time you don't get in trouble, basically if you ski away from it and don't hang around you won't get in trouble but if you fall you're screwed and if a patroller DOES see you in the air you're also screwed...

yeah line1260, at bittersweet, they look the other way, but at timber ridge they are soo strict about it, and the park is right out in the open, but we get away with it most of the time

They dont allow it at Val dIren but we still do some. THe problem is that I am a ski instructor so I cant do filmed flip with my normal coat on so I do them with my t-shirt and it is damn cold.
Still, inverted trick give on off the best feeling in skiing.

Inverts aren't allowed but ski patrol only recognizes front, back and lincolns as flips. A rodeo is an off axis spin in their book.

We also aren't allowed to go in the woods, so glades runs are rare but exhilarating.
