Definitely not worth it
$50 for a day at the foam pit which only has one kicker, that is shaped like nothing you will ever encounter while skiing. It pretty much forces you to do backflips. It was obviously built for boarders, bikers, and skaters, it just sends you super weird. The pit is pretty small for what you're paying for too.
They have the right idea, but the execution was absolutely terrible.
It sounds tempting, but pass on it and save the money, so not worth it

I would go just for a decent tramp into a foam pit to learn some dubs.

They've got a summer thing going so its now $25 for an all area, all day kinda thing. I've only been there once but i thought it was pretty cool. The jibs were decent but the jump/ramp sucks. Its a really weird design and i slammed into the up ramp both times i tried it. The "powder pack" is kinda hard to get used to as well. My favorite thing there was the tramp. It's better than flip city's and the pit is a lot nicer too. I believe its $5 for just the tramp all day. All, in all it depends how desperate you are to ski. Its not some place ill go very often but im sure it will be fun once in a while.

Just went for the first time yesterday, I had a lot of fun, the jib yard and trampoline where both sick but i did not like the jump at all. The staff/team there is pretty chill, and the ski guy (micah) is really knowledgeable and can help you out with little adjustments to make your tricks smoother.

He even let me ride his skis, 2013 élan puzzles which have jib rocker and side to side rocker in the tips and tails to keep from catching on surface swaps.

Overall sick place, fun to dub into the foam pit, and fun to ride the jib park. Good people, good times.
