The MidWest Park scene

Idk about you guys but in my opinion, the Midwest is absolutely killing the game right now. There’s so many good kids coming out of the Midwest, way way more than east coast and west coast. All of those ropetow parks look like so much fun. Especially you guys at Troll. The edits are so good and there’s a ton of good kids coming out of that place alone. In terms of talent, MidWest > east coast, > west coast. It’s nuts.

ironic for this post to pop up considering I may be taking a job in Milwaukee, pulling me from my beloved east coast. I saw Tyrol Basin is about two hours from Milwaukee, but are their any notable parks closer than that?

nothing super notable but there are 3 parks 40ish minutes from the city. Very fun but not on the same level as Tyrol

Right now Tyrol has been on a roll though they just got bought and I'm not too sure what the new owners will have in mind for the park. The Rock is a good option near Milwaukee that focuses mainly on park and they have a new high speed rope to get tons of laps so I would suggest checking that out

been in love with the midwest scene since i kicked for a week when I roll thru with the tell-a-friend tour. You guys have a strong community, and a lot of talent. I feel like i dont see enough edits from yall! Or more hometown kids killin the streets rather than pros coming to duluth for a week. The people i have seen in the streets always got their own take on it, the type of visions you get from walking by spots every day all year. Its great when the clips make it out.

Alpine valley in elkhorn is 40-50ish minutes from Milwaukee. It’s a much bigger hill than some of the others in that area if you like all mountain too but their park is pretty nice

I’m very glad to be apart of the Midwest ski scene. It seems like it is definitely getting much more attention lately. Especially with the many ski video series such as Tyrol Tuesday’s and Human Being. This has definetly getting the Midwest exposure.

Yea yea the midwest is where it's at. Not too many edits coming out of here, we like to keep it underground, but there's definitely a solid park scene here.
