Hey! The x-games are going to be even better this year because Aspen Skico hired a guy from the whistler/bc terrain park crew to work w/ us! If i'm going to see you there or in the Crazy T'rain park, give a shout out.
(As my good friend would say, 'Can i pleeeeeeaaase skip school for the X-Games?!)

I have a four pass to Aspen this winter and i hear that over thanksgiving, I get a free day and was wondering if any of the mountains would have any hits or rails up by then.

Thanks to all who replied! I'd have to say that Buttermilk has a better terrain park, but Snowmass is a better overall mountain. And yeah, Snowmass will definitely have hits up by Thanksgiving. Well, I'm pretty sure of it atleast.

Snowmass is a better mountain, and for some (not me), a better park. At Buttermilk, when ESPN packs up and goes home, the skico makes all of the hits smaller. It really fucks them up because they are all out of proportion. I saw at least one dude break his nose cause he over-shot the landing and put his knee in his face.
Can I pleeeeeaaaase skip school for the X-Games?

Because none of the other mountains have good places for any. Butt-milk has the best terrain for a big park.

hell, they should make all of it a park, pretty much useless otherwise.

you're welcome.
they're airing with other events too so you may have to watch for awhile before you see any skiing.
