Snowbird Superpipe and Parks

[tjski]

im making a trip to Snowbird in two weeks, i will be skiing on the 19th-22nd or 23rd. But anyways i checked the site and they said the superpipe is closed, does anyone know when it will be open, and how are the parks?

 

[offtrail]

super pipe......i would call it more of a stunt ditch.... if you want a superduperpipe...go to Park City/

 

[tjski]

im not goin there for thier park really, im goin cuz my uncle owns a time share, but where i usualy ski the biggest jump we have is like a 10 foot table. so a stunt ditch is sweet for me. im just wondering if i should bring my park skis with or not.

 

[GetPitted]

snowbird had a pretty legit park last year. But i'm not sure about this year

 

[GrippinGs]

ya everythings pretty weak right now. looks like the pipe might be ready in 2 weeks. they have like 3 weeks worth of snowmaking piled on it right now.

 

[tjski]

is snow coverage around the mountain pretty good, (not alot of barespots?)

 

[123ski]

they were grooming the pipe today and adding more rails to the skiers right park

 

[GrippinGs]

coverage isnt to good right now.

 

[Billiards.]

the superpipe at dabird is more like half groomed tranny's into a ledge to stall on.

 

[GrippinGs]

its open?

 

[BFFset.]

yeah. and coverage is ok...not great. but id bring my park skis... can always at least hit urbans

 

[tjski]

is it true alta has no park whatsoever this year?

 

[123ski]

yeah...no park at alta this year. The snowbird pipe in the past has been more like a snow taco..but apparantly it is giong to be good this year......

the birds park is a fucken joke right now. have fun not having fun. the only fun thing to do is gap the flat down and transfer the first chanel gap.

 

[breck-love]

stick to the natural shit. there are some pretty big cat track gaps on chips, def bigger than anything in the park

 

[123ski]

ummm..... i dont understand...how is a cat track gap "natural"?

 

[KillerMonkey]

So what are the conditions of the bird and alta this weekend? Im gonna be headin up for a few days and just want to get the lowdown.

 

[SNOWMOWER]

the snow is blower!!!!!!!!

 

[breck-love]

natural in the sense that it was not intended to be hit as a park feature. but seriously though there are some pretty big gaps and hits to be found around the mountain aside from the cat tracks on chips.

 

[123ski]

i know breck. I was just messin with you, casue they technically aren't natural features. A natural feature is something that was either there before man came through and changed things, or something that is created by the natural falling of snow. I undesrstand completely what you mean though, and I was just messin with you.

 

[breck-love]

dude im like super sensitive i was very close to dustin off the cold play tracks in my basement. but would a gap over a highway be considered natural?

 

[123ski]

if you would have jumped the spot anyways without the road there

 

[123ski]

hahaha...i have no idea

 

[BFFset.]

i think a gap over a road depends on what you are jumping off of... like a naural mound might make it natural?

It's a little bit different now.
