I started at hockley (ahem) and Caledon.. so embarrasing.. but everyone has to start somewhere and it was close to home. I like blue now - always fun at blue!

I get to call good old glen eden home every winter. The hill sucks but they get some allright jumps going and there are always great night sessions going down in the park. I will be skiing at Blue as much as possible this season though so if you see a bigger guy (6'4) on a pair of older orange 1080's come say hi

I've been skiing at blue since I was two years old.

Blue is and always will be the place to be in Ontario.

I mean come on, if you're into newschool why would you go anywhere else?

2 18' superpipes, better rails than Whistler, and jumps that will blow you away this year.

Oh yeah, and we have 4 parks all the way from total beginner to Pro.

So come on, give up your other resorts and just come to blue.

It's the way it's gotta be!



I'm over it.

Doug your wrong, tali is the best place for newschool, i mean we got 2 pipes, which they groom atleast twice a year. small ass kickers and like 2 rails.

Oh man tali park is pathetic

Mount St. Chicopee, in ghetto Kitchener is where it all began. At least we're allowed in the park this year. I'll be heading to blue for some turbo fun this year some time.

this just in: Uplands is 120 feet tall, not 110 as I previously thought. I guess they measured from the roof of the lifty shack at the top of the lump.

This one time, they had a 5 foot table and a log that you could hop over.

Hey, yeah i'm new to NS. I am skiing at Kirby (Oshawa Ski Club) and Sir Sams up in Haliburton. Devels Elbow is the closest but its a huge ass rip off and it has no park.

I was at Bleu on the 19th with my school...it was sweet, we couldn't go into the park casue we were with the school but all they had where a couple rails and a table open, the pipe wasn't open. I was talking to our instuctor and he mentioned something about a water pipe bursting in the park so they had to push the snow out...i dunno but when i was there the park wasn't really 'up and running'.

I was at Sir sams on the 22nd and they built a booter there (wicked) and the put in 4 rails (1 straight (15-20ft)

I pretty much always ski at Loch Lomand (in thunder Bay, Ontario). It's a real hardcore place cause there are no tourists.It's only like 20 min from town so that's pretty cool. The only problem is that the terain park eats shit and the half pipe sux balls. The runs are fairly steep but short. GO T. BAY!!!!!!

I've only skiied for 3 years but my 'home' resort is devils elbow. I know people think they dont have much of a park but my friends dad/grandpa owns the place and they have made some nice changes to it.. new is a 30 foot table top, a square metal grind rail and some improvements to the spine. Just ask me anything and i can relay it on to Dan Homberg (owners son)

Started out at Chicopee and Devil's Elbow. Don't go there much anymore cause Blue's where it's at! Glen Eden is OK if you just want to session their half decent park and pipe though.

It's all baout Craigleith Ski Club, and some of the other c-wood places. Blue is great except for the lineups, and single tip racing panzies that cut in the pipe.
