actually.. the south dont got no snow.. juss wet snow mixed w/ rain. but most of the parks in the south east arent that good. Wintergreen doesnt have that good of a freestyle park.. Snowshoe sux hell. massanutten is pretty decent

Stratton is the best, but I'm biased.
Okemo is doin a great job this year, sick Pipe!
Bristol Mtn in NY is sweet.
Heard some good stuff about Wachusett in Mass and Big Boulder in PA.
Mt Snow has alot of features but nothing amazing.

wawa's pretty straight right now must admit.
huge upgrade from like 2 years ago.
I love how the top is more flat now so theres a place to group up, it just gets better and better every year now.
Pretty good flow other then the fact that some of the rail style stuff is far right, then the next railstyle hit is 10yds down but all the way on the left

ya youre so right. the park is so nasty for a hill thats like half an hour away. Its got amazing flow and like the park is divided right down the middle in half so the left side is easier stuff and hte right side is harder stuff. you can hit the left side for warmup and stuff. Plus theres the park pass which keeps sooo many gapers out.

hows this setup sound
30 foot step down with roller coaster and smaller option
60 foot table with smaller option
45 foot table with 35 option
hip
rainbow
s rail
trap rail
up rail to wall ride setup so after you hit the wall ride you can go back and hit the up rail as a down rail instead

stratton could be the best hands down if they would use the rails they have stored by the SES hut their jump line is alreay sick and would be nicely complemented by some fdf rails and flat down rails

I never really looked at the park pass as a way of keeping gapers out but thats a really good point. Still I saw like 3 people multiple times who could barely ski in there but definetly better then any other place I've been at.
The parks really fun to ride in, but some of the stuff just confuses me.
The parks in like tiers, like 3 hits at 1st tier, 3 more at the next, anyway the 3 hits on like 2nd tier that are all up on the right I think need to be spread out a little i don't see a reason for them being so bunched up. (The 3 hits next to the barrel jib)
Those and that up flat rail. I haven't seen anyone hit it, I'm sure the people can do it look awesome but just judging by it it looks like you'd land on flat and that thing is steeper then the jumps
