I keep wanting to ride park and copper has a pretty good one this year. However every time I start to think about my jib game it snows again so I have to go ride freshies. Don't get me wrong Pow over Park any day so it is a good problem to have but at this rate I don't know how much park riding I will get in before the season ends especially with sled access just getting prime. Somehow even with the dry February we had in summit/eagle county I have found my self skiing powder before work and on my days off. So what should I do?

Don't pass up freshies to go into the park. You can ski park no matter what the conditions are like, but powder isn't always there. Do what makes you happy and ski powder. If you want to work on your jib game just wait for summer and then build a summer setup or go to hood.

I had this problem last season on the east coast where we got dumped on for like a month straight, just ski the powder now and save park for spring when it is way more fun. Out there you have park options pretty late whereas my mountain closed mid april and I had to hike...

Powder is too soft, it's not cool to ski it. I only enjoy skiing on ice.

In the midwest I have the same problem. I hate it when I can't ride the park because there is to much powder and I have to go rip that.

I had a similar problem this season. The resort didn't have enough snow to fully open or stay open :/

The snow is always (sometimes) better in the park.

I will trade my parks for your freshies any day here in New England. We got nothing... pretty discouraging.

Sounds like you need to move back east so all you can ski is park. 4 times a year. In the rain. While having a dildo up your ass.
Gosh darn, east coast sucks
west coast best coast baby!!

ya how did that work out for you last year.

Im from CO so I don't think a move east would be good for me. And ass for the dildo in the ass is that something you have found to help you afterbang? Because im not sure that is good advice.

Hammy, I'm just telling you what to expect if you ever go out east to persue your dreams of being a jersey "park rat".
I am west coast only, so I have no first hand experiebce.

Talk about first world, or should I say, first hill, problems (insert ba dum dum ksh! here). Living in Ontario, this thread makes me sad. Powder being a problem. I wish I had that problem. Shred whatever you feel like! Have fun.
