Season pass with who?
- Thread starter daisycutter
- Start date
Why change now then?
Blue is nice and cheap. i might be opting for that one instead of Diablo
Why not put the money toward traveling/registration fees for the Gravity East series? Tons of great mountains, and a lot more variety than picking one park and riding it every free weekend.
Must Hit:
Massanutten
Sugarbush
Killington
Whiteface
The other 4 resorts are great as well.

Shut Up and Ride.
I did Blue for $100 when they had the special..definitely worth it
depends where u go the most, if diablo is the closest why not that?
I got one for Blue. It's just over an hour away from me. Everywhere else I'll pay per day or per race.
I do Diablo, but I'm in North Manhattan, and they're ~45-60mins away (depending on driving mood)
Platte is my heart, but they're all fun; I'd say be pragmatic, and get the one thats closest so you can ride lots, then travel like a gypsie for the rest!

Snowshoe
How is Blue? Never been there.
all depends what's close and can get the most variety/riding in.
Platty has huge variety of trails and two "peaks" but little in the way of "freeride" compared to the others...
Diablo has a fast lift, very well built features, and jump runs so you can pretend you're on a BMX bike and not a DH bike.
Whiteface has huge trails but you'll end up spending most of your time on the same trails. Worth a trip or three but maybe not a season's unless you are close.
Nothing to add on VE
Highland is rad but has six trails and 0 vertical drop. Great features and really nice trails maintenance, but if you love real DH you'll find it lacking compared to Pkill or Whiteface. Great jump runs. Slow lift.
I'm considering a season's at pkill even though I'm 4.5 hours away...riding is just better and more varied and so much more natural vs. a bike "park". I've tried everywhere around the NE, just about, and plattekill is always #1 on my list for some reason.
ummmmm WHISTLER! forget work, forget home, the parking lot is home and surviving 60 - 90 days on the hill is your job.

I am so ridculously jealous of you having to make that decision. I'm lucky to get an uplift every few months.
I would hit Whiteface if it wasn't 6 hours away. Nice mountian
