Buck Hill vs Hyland park set ups at the moment

[UFOsarereal]

I'm going to be up in the cities on Wednesday and will have a few hours to kill... I'm thinking of going to Buck since they've got a $13 lift ticket during my time window and I'd like to fuck around in their mini pipe, but I'd like to know if Hyland's got something noticably more worth my while... especially as it pertains to the quality of their jumps. Thanks for any info you can give.

The jumps at both are pretty whack imo, buck hill's jumps have flat landings and hyland is almost always an ice rink at that time. Buck isn't as bad for ice. Unless you are a fan on hot laps with the rope tow, I'd go with buck if I were you.

^ thanks man -- I meant to add that I'm going to be riding from, like, 10am until 3 or so.

Oh, well if it's on a weekday hyland will be great! Buck hill is weird and a little sketchy, hyland is normal I guess...

Most of the rails are really fun, the jumps look beautiful but the landings are super flat because the run isn't steep enough for jumps with long angled landings.

I have passes to both... That being said, go to Hyland. Hyland during the morning on weekdays is always cash. Buck Hill sometimes doesn't even open their park lift cause nobody is out there..
