Which resort exceeded past expectations for this past year?

I'm gonna have to go ahead and say PC (yes it's my home mountain) but i still think it was great this year. King's was fairly big and kept in nice condition. And after the intelligent design comp, they actually kept the features!

tell me what you think

The Canyons, actually. It was pretty legit, a big step above the last years.

The polar bear speaks the truth. I'd probably go with The Can. Had some really fun park setups and some dope pow riding this year.

canyons killed it this year. Park getting better every year - and the side/back country was epic.

Despite having occasional flat landings and being lazy about Salting, PC didn't really blow it. The only thing they blew was canyons out of the water... lawl.

I liked the flow of the park last year in canyons

this year the features were better but the flow was kind of fucked in the big park. Jib park was super creative all year.

Powder Mountain was super fun this year, the park crew got lazy for quite a while but I guess thats part of being on park crew these days. PC was fun didn't seem to change much though that step over was epic at the end of the season

CANYONS KILLED IT!!!

It seems like the park crew at Canyon listened to what people said about the park and would change what people said they didn't like.

PC park crew keeps to themselves. it seems like they do what ever they want to do without getting feedback from the people that actually ride it.

This is not a hate on PC but just some advice. PC park crew needs to listen to the people that are there everyday. Not just build good shit for comps but for everyday riding.

PC has built up a killer reputation for having the best park, but they still think that because it was rated #1 park 2 years ago that it still is the best. Park City park crews need a wake up call and need to get back in the game because they soon could be surpassed by Canyons.
