Calabogie has the best park around here.... seriously.... i has a 'C' rail and a nice kink and a flat and a huge rainbow and a mailbox and a wooden box and 6 nice jumps ranging from 5- 15 feet and the whole park is finished off by a huge 35 foot kicker.... and soon they will get a wooden stairset with a urban style handrail goin over the 14 set its gonna be kick ass..

By tremblant sucking alot of the boxs and rails they had set up Where sticking like a bitch no matter how much speed you had
THey had 2 boxes that slid well but everything else was near impossible

Too many little kids and parents going through the park with no freaken respect.

I wanna start ripping through family trails tuck styles poles a flailin and see how many parents get peaved at me! hahaha

And yah the jumps where pretty good but it was foggy as shit when we where there this weekend

Druid is just cryin because he face planted on a backflip!
* I had just launched myself 50feet in the air Off a boother when both my skiis pop off. So I think to myself What would Jared do?*

eh eh eh... i caught my tips then face planted and it still kills! and everything was poorly positioned. I could plan a better park with all those boxes and rails. they should make it possible to git both big jumps not have to skip one to get decent air off the second one.
Maybe i am bitter, but for 66 fucking bucks the park should be better.

Yah the park is rather poorly laid out at the current time.
The piramid at the top is a bitch to get to you really have to work it hard to climb back up that hill.


there is no line to the park you have to pick and chose what ya wanna hit
Where as at fortune you really only have one thing to hit

i don't know how anyone can compare trmeblant's park to calabogie. Just the fact that that guy was asking if calabogie had there park open while tremblant already has 4 hits and 7 jibs of speaks for itself. 4 big hits and 7 jibs ,any other hill around have that. No challenge, just asking.

it isn't possible to compare tremblants park and calaboie's due to the huge amount of funding tremblant gets, aswell as the amount of freedom they have for building stuff because they have way better insurance then the peaks. the one thing calabogie had that tremblant didn't was a 50footer all year. i beleive calabogie had the best park in the ottawa area last year and it will be this year. but all i can do is work with the amount of snow we get. but i got some very interesting idea's for jumps and rails this year, that i hope everyone will like.

He isnt comparing the 2
But he is saying that the Tremblant park is poorly designed
sure the stuff thats there is pretty decent (Even though very little slides) its just all poorly setup

No one ever talks about Moonstone, such a nice park, nice rails and nice booters. Lots of beginner rails that helped me slide rails.

Calabogies rails KILL packenhams. The yare well setup usually and are fun to hit. Pakcenhamm has some nice jumps but they arent as big as calabogies. However, packenham grooms their park every morning so the jumps arent icy and the box is fun and its defnitly a very emjoyable park, but it doesnt push limits like calabogies.

i like pakenhams park just to go after school and have some fun, but it gets boring skiing it all day. Calabogie is better for all day skiing though. I havent been to Calaboige since they put the jumps up. They are both pretty good though. Pakenham is more for a beginner kinda like me but Calabogie is more of an advantaced with their rails but their jumps are awsome(at least last year they were and i hope they are this year).

ya pakenham had good stuff set up but the jumps are too small. the first jump i cleared the landing totaly i landed so flat and i had to use the blades also cause the tips in my skis are splitting. the rails are nice but i have noticed rails on twins are alot easier than on blades or at least i find. the box there is way too short but i love hitting it anyways. overall it is a good park to fool around in after school or work
