I've talked to Jared a few times, he's a cool enough guy, but how about they focus less on building new stuff and focus more on maintaining what they have? Brighton's park is great... for the first hour or two after the resort opens. After that there are so many ruts at the end of the rails and on the lip of the jumps that you end up pissed off the rest of the day. I got spoiled with a pass to Park City last year, what a difference iced over kickers and a park crew that grooms the jibs every couple hours makes! Jumps twice the size of Brighton's were less intimidating because you knew they would always be smooth as butta your only worry was if you had enough speed or not.
