Is the line for the T-bar at COC long? I imagine it would be, but I wasn't sure.

It's really really long. It was 30 minute lineups every time I went up that Tbar. Which was luckily only once a day because I went to momentum. The momentum line ups were 5 minutes max. That was my main reason for going to momentum.

Pretty decent, its the main public one. Its the worst at the end of the day and the best like 11-12 when everyone eats lunch.

Last year I did the public ski lane for a day and by the time the public was up there the line was super long. COC and the public share the same t-bar, while momentum has its own. I bet the lines are shorter before the time that the public gets there, but they were super long afterwards.

maybe you should go to windells. There getting to private rope tows. One for rails and jibs, another for pipe and jumps.

Yeah the lines can get pretty crazy for sure but you can't beat COC's park. The line is the worst in the afternoon but not too bad in the morning so the thing to do is to hit jumps in the morning when you can lap quickly and the snow is still fast so you aren't knuckleing and then hike rails in the afternoon when the line is stupid long and the snow is slow and sloppy.

And if you want to learn a new trick on the jumps and you want soft landings, you might have to do it in the afternoon and wait in the line but the feeling once you stomp your trick makes the wait in line worthwhile!

The line for COC is HUGE in the afternoon, and there is a ton of assholes who just cut all the way to the front and step on your skis and shit. I think hiking the features would save time and your gear.

the coc line sucks COCk. although the park is uncomparable, the lift line makes it hard to call which is better. momentum has a really fun lane and usually no lift lines.

Our lift line is not as bad as some make it out to be. It is super busy at the end of the day, but that is because it's the only lift off the glacier so every camp has to use it at the end of the day to leave.

It's really busy on the weekends as well, but the only weekend day we're on snow is Sundays, which is the first day of the session so everyone's legs are weak. A bit of a rest helps keep people from killing themselves.

One other thing to consider, our park is almost twice as long as Momentum's and is twice the size, so you get to hit way more features in every run. So quicker laps on fewer features, or slower laps on more features. Just some food for thought.

Where can I get more information on the public park? also is it possible to buy a ticket for momentum or something. Or help dig or anything. Looking to go up with a friend in the summer, but were planning on keeping it cheaper and not paying for the whole camp.

Thanks.

The Public Park is definitely not worth the price for a lift ticket, they have like 1 box, 2 rails and 2 jumps. As of buying as pass to the private parks i'm not sure.

shit really? I thought they shared a park, they just share the lift, then COC has a hella good park and the public one blows? well anybody know a good place for my friend and I to ski in the summer? Whistler would be cool cause they have more nightlife and stuff, but I know that you can get a day pass for the summer park at windells.

the line is awful, if anything just go to hood instead, i've been to both, but just skied public.  COC has a good park, but the lines aren't worth it, Momentum has a great park as well, but riding the t bar still kind of sucks i would think.

at hood you've got a high speed quad, and two if you're lucky and go early in the summer
plus public park at hood is actually legit.
