Well you're going to have to like park haha, Rabbit probably has the best park in the city but can get busy at times 15 to 30mins from anywhere in the city. Ski club downtown can be fun as well, much smaller. Both places usually have a cheap night during the week. I personally like Tawatina which is about an hour north and is not too busy but has no night skiing.

Rabbit probably has the best park in the city but the only thing I don't like is that since the park is the "main attraction" the t bar \ toe rope lines can get pretty long for a maybe 5 minute line in the park

Yeah, gotta catch it when it's quite, then you lap quickly for an hour or so on the handle and then go home because you're exhausted

Rabbit defiantly has the best park, but gets old fast. I've been trying to put together an urban segment this year. If anyone owns a bungie I'll film if you want to go out
