Fishbowl Park & Pipe



Our terrain park continues to grow like sea monkeys in warm brine. The Chair 3 area will be evolving into more and more freestyle terrain. It is a great place to spend a day riding, or just chill out. If your music batteries die, no need to worry because our terrain park sound system will keep you jammin.

Park & Pipe Life
Park brothers and sisters, the time has come. You have probably been wearing your new boots around the house for a week now, and can visualize yourself getting sick. Here is how we are going to help you in your efforts to be rad -

New Beginner Park - Where the old EZ rider used to be, by Morning Eagle, will soon be our first progressive park geared for beginner skiers and riders. Everyone needs a chance to get some.

Dedicated Park Groomer - We have increased the amount of Cat time in the park by about 150%. That should help us improve as much as anything that has been done, and is GREAT news for you if you love to ride park.

New Jibs - We now have about 20 jibs from short rails, long boxes, wall rides and other fun stuff to play on. Not bad, we had only one 4 years ago.

Cut trees and improved lighting - This will help the flow through the park, and alleviate bottle necks to improve safety. We have also tweaked the lights to improve night skiing.

Smart Style
- nothing is more important than being able to ride again tomorrow. Here are the 3 best ways we know of to ensure your longevity -


    LOOK BEFORE YOU LEAP
  • Before getting into freestyle terrain observe all signage and warnings
  • Scope around the jumps first not over them
  • Use your first run as a warm up run and to familiarize yourself with the terrain
  • Be aware that the features change constantly due to weather, usage, grooming and time of day
  • Do not jump blindly and use a spotter when necessary

    EASY STYLE IT
  • Know your limits and ski/ride within your ability level
  • Look for small progression parks or features to begin with and work your way up
  • Freestyle skills require maintaining control on the ground and in the air
  • Do not attempt any features unless you have sufficient ability and experience to do so safely
  • Inverted aerials increase your risk of injury and are not recommended

    RESPECT GETS RESPECT
  • Respect the terrain and others (freestyle terrain is for everyone regardless of equipment or ability)
  • One person on a feature at a time
  • Wait your turn and call your start
  • Always clear the landing area quickly
  • Respect all signs and stay off closed terrain and features
