Hey guys, any ideas if Holiday Valley is getting any new features this season? I know last season they did a decent job with their parks but I've seen better from them. Im curious to see what they come up with this season.

lol probably not. They're too busy pumping money into their hotels than their parks.

They have at least 50+ features in the area above foxfire. Would be cool to see them ad more than one rail line in fiddlers this year.

Holiday could very easily have one of the best parks on the East. Fiddlers area with a high speed quad is perfect but every year their parks fall short. Need to get some new minds on the park crew. I wish Peak's crew had the trails/lifts Holiday's has.

Pretty sure the park crew is not the problem. It's more that holiday's management won't let them do the stuff that they want to do. They have to go through so many levels of people to get shit done. Whereas KB or peak can just be like hey we want to do this is that cool? And then they can do it. At least that's how they described it to me.

I guess I get that, but they still were given Fiddlers and didn't do much with it. Foxfire is also pretty disappointing each year, the bottom could be such a big rail garden. So much potential.

True. I don't disagree. I think they need permission to put features up though... I could be mistaken on that but yeah idk. I think Red Bull also stopped working with HV(and KB) so idk what kind of events will be going on this year.

It would be cool if one of the holiday dudes hopped in on this. I'm not exactly sure how accurate I am since the woman we work with doesn't work with the park manager at all.

If i had a cabin/house/condo near holiday valley i would totally apply for park crew, but the hour and a half drive just wouldnt be worth it. I even feel like they could have one lift for all the parks(Fiddlers). Fiddlers could be a sweet rail run while boardercross could replace fox fire with a jump line. that way you dont need to go all the way to fox fire. the one jump they had on fids this year was all right but they only way to hit it half the time was to skip all the rails and bomb the hill from the top. Holiday valley needs to step there park game up, it has so much potential.
