i just got home from Crystal Mountain..and the new 11 runs that they're putting in there look pretty f-ing sweet..
i drove my parent's van up the hill to check them out..
they are pretty long..it'll definitely be some more fun terrain to ski at crystal..

there's one run in particular that caught my eye though..it'd be an awesome run to put a park on..and i dont know if y'all agree with me..but the hills they have their parks on right now..aren't the best for parks..
this run's pretty long..so there could be a good size park on it..i really hope they make one there..

you get to the runs by going along the top of the ridge after getting off the clipper..and go to where there used to be a xc trail..

all in all..the new runs will add a lot to crystal..and it'd be awesome if they could put a park on one of them..they could actually put some nice jumps on it then..

As for new parks there will be 3 this year which means one more than last. They are keepin the two they had last year and either the last run on the Ridge 'Last Chance' or possibly one of the new ones will be a park. No guarentees however.

last chance wouldn't be a bad run..it's just a little flat..
the one i'm thinkin of is pretty much last chance plus a little length and steepness..

too bad it's pretty much the access run to the lift..i just realized that..

if they were smart, they would put a super pipe on one of those runs, they have the super dragon, it seems like using it would make sense. we should start a petition.

hopefully the park will be nice cause i am spending the $ for it but if they make some real landings for the jumps it will be pimp and they rails are almost always good. i was wondering about the new runs maybe cyrstal will have somewhere to actully ski besides the park this year.

If we do more expansions of our terrain parks, it will infact be on the new slopes. Being the first year, we plan on playing it by ear as to where would be the best location.

sweet, crystal doesnt need more parks they just need to focus on making the ones they have good. bigger jumps with more quality landings, more difficult rails(srail, rollercoaster, and some iventive boxes).

hmm, from that picture and when I went there I couldn't really see a good spot to put a park except maybe under the lift at that intersection were the run is wider. That adds a lot onto crystal though, awesome.

yeah they looked more like cruser runs. maybe a rail park or superpipe.
