I'm thinking about doing a summer camp next year and was wondering which one do you guys think is best?
Also, does Windells have a public park this year?

I did search for this and couldnt find anything.
Thanks

I've been to Woodward and windells and I'd say windells is better. The terrain park is better and you have more on snow time. Also the skatepark at windells is ill

Ive never been but Windells seems so sick. Feels like there are super good vibes around and the skatepark seems so so dope.

Well this summer I would have to say that the only place that has a solid amount of snow (Canada/US only), and a solid park would be momentum. I just got back from session 3 at Momentum and the snow conditions there were still prime and the park was super fun, it looked like the struggle was real at COC and the park was a lot smaller at COC. From what I have seen, Hood is all a bunch of dirty snow that is all black this summer.

Windells is just a camp at Timberline, so windells doesn't have a public park but Timberline has a public park every year. Its been rough this year, but things will most likely be different next year. Timberlines public park is usually pretty awesome most of the summer.

Id say if youre 17 or older and your parents are chill with you going on a road trip with friends, camping and skiing public park is the way to go, its 1/10 the price of going to camp and you can do whatever the fuck you want.

Ya that makes since. The whole trip depends on goes much snowfall they get, because if there isnt a decent amount it probably isnt worth it.

I'd say the best place to ski is with you!

You are correct, North America had some good parks but they certainly didn't last.

New Zealand is real good right now and the exchange rate is good as well. Just wrote this article about the parks at Cardrona. https://www.newschoolers.com/news/read/Cardrona-Parks-NZ#jwcj6LvWZ58reCe9.97

Coc week b was a fucking blast. Of course it looked like they were struggling it was their last week for the year where as momentum has to make sure they maintain all snow for the next upcoming sessions. We skied momentum and COC and both parks were unique and a lot of fun. Public is fire too.
