ya got sundown in ct ,and in ny you have hunter, windham, and belleayre within 2 hours away. i got to school in bridgeport, and i go up to windham ever weekend, its not that bad of a ride
sundown has lots of nice rails, but yes their jumps suck ass. catamount is on the MA/NY border, near NW CT, it has a decent park and a decent halfpipe. that might be your best bet. just dont go to mohawk, it is so gay
