This is probably on all the web sites of the Resorts, but i did mine on skifernie.com. EVERYONE should go fill out this survey to encourage The Resorts of the Canadian Rockies (Fernie, Lake Louise, Fortress, Kimberly and Wintergreen) to start building decent terrain parks. Especially fernie...cause that's where i ski and it needs help. If you've never been...just give it a mediocre rating and leave a comment that fernie NEEDS a superpipe.
thanks!

yes everybody should help us out, a superpipe would be sick but so would some real rails instead of funboxes, and a qp would also be nice.
please everyone.

i filled it out. i thought fernie had a pretty good park though, they had a few decent tables and you could hit them all without stopping or running into little kids.

Even if you've never been....just make something up about wanting bigger jumps, real rails and a super pipe.

I filled it out. But instead of just saying they need bigger jumps and better rails, tell them why and how. If you did that then thats good. They get a lot more out of it that way. For instance, the Lake thinks that bigger jumps= more people getting hurt, but you could explain to them that you are more likely to get hurt over shooting a small tab, then undershooting a large one. If you over shoot a small one you land flat after dropping, while on a big one you land flat but dont drop as much. Thats just physics fellers. Or tell them something like that anyway. It would be good to see them get a real park. Word is that it may be happening, but thats pretty much what you hear anyway.
Doesnt matter too much-im off to Whistler.

I dont think they'd have the survey if they didnt plan on doing something anyway, its just a way to let the people think their opinions are important.

The Resorts of the Canadian Rockies also own Mont Ste Anne and Stoneham in the Quebec city area and the parks there aren't any better. Maybe someone should tell them that we want better parks in all their resorts. Anybody have the web site for them ?
