if you are looking to just go skiing you should go to killy because okemo is pretty flat.

bigger tables (as in the jump is the same height as the landing, or a LITTLE taller.) and steeper landings, i think like 33 degrees or something, also steep takeoffs. basically bigger jumps, with steep, LONG landings. and big takeoffs, that are about the same height as the top of the landing pad. and, the biggest jump should go where the flat down box was this year, and where the 2nd jump for the east coast open was 2 years ago, not like this year wit hthe rediculouly long in run.

yea that was a long in run...and you had to skip the f/d box in order to hit the big table. it was still a sick jump though

when i was at okemo last winter, (a weekend before feb break) i narrowly dodged a blind skier being guided by patrol (at the end of that trail that has a fence to slow people down, I guess going under it wasnt such a great idea). I felt terrible, but as the guy was screaming at me to get back so he could take my pass. I was watchin my back the rest of the weekend.

I just want to say thanks for the "good" comments . And I gotta agree with the comments that Stratton and Killy suck , SMS came to Okemo to train more then they were at their own Mtn. If that says anything...And next winter should be the best Okemo has ever seen , Im goin for the best the East Has ever seen ! Well , hopefully pretty damn good anyway ...
