if you could have endless pow everday, or a perfect park, with every feature you want, which would you choose? you can't have both.

No contest for me, Powder.

Skiing powder with the right gear is one of (if not THE) best experiences this sport has to offer.

Nothing can compare to a chest deep pow day.

IMO People who say park have clearly never had a good pow day. Don't get my wrong, park is fun, but no comparison to deep pow.

Thats crazy crazy hard, I love rails so much (I like jumps, but I just love rails more) , but I also1 love throwing down new lines in deep pow.

I would have to say pow, its where I learned to ski and I could always hit trees and throw stuff off cliffs.

I have only experienced real pow two times in my life. And those two times were some of the most fun I have ever had. Honestly park is fun and that is all I really ski because of the lack of pow, but when you reallly look at what skiing is about... nothing feels better than a face shot after yo hit a drop.

Pow.
And if we did have endless pow for ever and ever, skiing would progress a lot faster, i wouldn't mind trying triple corks in waist deep pewder.
