STRATTON'S PARK IS AMAZING

perfect. amazing.  joyjizztastic.

poppy. floaty tables.  steep landings.  wide carveable lips.  amazing flow.  minimal speechecking,  2 jump and 4 jump line.

know how mammoth gets props for its south park----the smaller one with like a jump line of 4 awesome kickers that are medium size and perfect for learning on?  welcome to stratton, mayeb a little smaller.

the jumps are not really that big, but htey pop you real high and you have alot of airtime...snowboarder pulled a cork 7 off the smallest jump.


minimal rails, but they might be in the other park, but fuck that when the main park is out of control awesome.   they did have liek a 40ft long 5 inch wide flat bar, with a great lip, very trickable.  also  they have a rollercoaster box (2 humps) and a schoolbus box butterbox/jib


on another note-the park takes up the space where the pipe usually is.  thats why its allowed to be so awesome.  please everyone petition them not to change it, only maybe to make it bigger...its fucking awesome.  ic ant wait to go back thursday.  i want to go back now.

I was just at snow yesterday and they are blowin snow like crazy on inferno section. and the pipe was being cut to be open for saturday.. un blanco is dope right now tho. lots of features and good flow.. I was at stratton on sunday and the jump line is fun but speed for the size was weird.. 1st two jumps are the best ones.

Byrneside should be open tomorrow(fri). The Flat Gap Down box set up is in, the 1st table is sick, and we are putting up the wall ride today after lunch. Don't worry, we are committed to keeping Suntanner fun and flowy as possible. Don't know about you guys, but I'd much rather use the snow to build a kick ass park on Suntanner then what we had last year! The Pipe deal is still undecided. We will most likely build it in the spot where the Open pipe goes. Not sure if or how much earlier then already scheduled for the competition? Any thoughts you guys have for changes & updates send em my way anytime!
Cheers

gapers, yeah, but as gay as the park pass is, its sick bc it keeps  huge amounts of them out of the park. i feel bad for the guys who have to check the park passes because they get alot of shit, but i respect what they do because it's def keeping shit safer.

First of all I'd like to say that it is about fucking time that Stratton stepped up their shit! I've been riding their for the last few years and theres only a few times that its been really nice. I haven't been since they've put this shit up so I can't speak firsthand but judging by the pics and the descriptions it sounds fucking dope! Stratton needs to care about their parks, so many mountains just do a half-assed job and its pathetic. If there is a mountain with a sick park, the skiers will come, nuff said. And as for the pipe, stratton shouldn't even bother building a pipe, unless we get a massive dump, their pipe ALWAYS SUCKS and is always way too icy. All that snow could be used for some more dope ass jumps. Word to Stratton, maybe I'll hafta come up this weekend.

yea.. lack of natural snow = no pipe.. definitely keep that jump line. but maybe move the last rollercoaster to the right and down some so kids in the jump line can hit it without having to sharp turn left.
