i would love to see more of everything, and i know they did good this season as for $$$ the big weekends we broke records and the amount of people there was nuts. Its great for the local riders all thats doing if filling the park wallet up so they can do more and more to make it better. BCs park was sick this year so for all them guys in the crew and the groomers awesome Effin job. There might have been 1 or 2 nights when i was unhappy and it was because of the weird weather. Im thinkin about becoming a member of the park crew to see if i can get more ideas out there in setting up the park. well see. Dude i agree with all the commets about these new rails and how they are more just make it to the other side type of deal, but we need to have more then that. I didnt mind those rails, it was fun spinning on them and that dragon rail was fun to do all kinds a crazy stuff like thowing 5s off of it to spinning 5s on it. I think we need to have more of the flat downs, esp the flat down flats. MAKE THEM LONGGGG. these rails are getting popular everywhere. I wouldnt mind seein some of the old school urban rails either. We cant phase them out yet. As for jumps we did good for what we had to work with. Next year with the possible expanded park and adding another pond, would help us to have the most extreme park for the up coming season. This super park stuff needs to get done... all we have to do is step up. It will atract new rides and keep bringing the regulars. The talk about the division of the "super park" and the other park will be a great step in improving our over all happiness while riding. it will eliminate the small kids that dont belong and keep the best riders together. This year kinda started to turn in to a circus. this next part i want to talk about i hope someone from the creek reads this because it was one of the saddest things i have ever seen at the creek. all through the season ive been seeing kids throwing snowballs at people going down the mountain. It was 2 weeks before BC closed and i was coming down on the triple side while teaching my girl how to board and i saw a kid prolly about 14 or 15 chuck a snowball at a lil girl prolly no more then 8 years old and hit her straight in the face. she fell to the ground started crying. If i would have been anywhere near that kid the rest of the night i would have knocked all his teath in. If this was the first time something like this would have happened i wouldnt say anything but its like the 50th time ive seen it this year. Where is ski patrol, that kid should have been off the mountain then and there and told not to come back. that shits not cool and i would have liked to have seen that kid later on that night. bottom line is that some of lil boys that are coming to our mountain on a regular basis think that just because they are there alot they can do that shit. something should be done about it, that contract you sign should say something along the lines of. Throwing any objects off of the lift will result in termination of the ticket or pass. OUr security went to hell this year even as far as boards being stolen. thats more fucked up then everything. something should be done about this and more then just putting 1 or 2 people at the lodge standing around. but other then that crap great season bear cant wait till next year. the count down begins at 7 months and 2 weeks, yea baby.....
One of the time before the New Year I saw about 5-6 kids spitting and throwing snowballs off the lifts at people, as soon as i got off the lift i told them to cut their sh*t. About 2.5 hours later my buddy was riding in front of me right under the two man lift on the big side of the park and i see one of the kids spit on him and the other throw a snowball at him. Well we caught up with the kids later and just pushed them around a little bit, and after that they just left. There a bunch of immature little punks that have to learn their lesson, thats why they needed to be pushed around. Im not going to fight a little kid but as long as you give them a little fear they will cut their shit. So ski patrol please be on the look out and just kick these kids off the mountain, or someone a little crazy will eventually hurt one of these little bastrds pretty bad

Hence the nickname "Iceface". Bob said the last time he was there it was icy death and a balmy negative 60 degrees (wind chill). Sounded so fun to me I ran out and booked a trip that day. NOT.
Well I hope since I am there in mid April it will not be this cold, lol
As long as they are open, I dont care if conditions suck or not im bringing my board, just so I can get at least one more day in for this year

Thank you for your feedback, I have been up there numerous amounts of times for hockey, its a fun place, but now since im older its a little beat, rather be in Montreal again this year where i can get into bars and have a good time, so since i can not get in the bars in Lake Placid I am hoping I can snowboard in my free time. Either way I will have a good time.
Thanks once again though.

Does anyone know or think that Whiteface will still be open with a nice covering the weekend from April 13-16. I have an ice hockey tournament at the olympic center and would like to ride whiteface. Thanks

When I was there Saturday, the day of the park competition I saw a ski instructor take 5 little kids no older then 6 through the smaller park. I realize they are just trying to learn but there trying to learn how to ski not jump. The ski instructor should not take the kids through the park

snowcarpet is over-rated... just use some old scraps of carpet or go get some cheap carpet from Home Depot and then on the way back home stop at your local icerink and steal the zamboni shavings.... last summer we had multiple rail sessions like that.
To have a nice size set up, how many trucks would you need to fill up if the trucks beds were 8 ft'
