Ok, i just want to say what everyone is thinking. When are the park builders of ontario going to pull their heads out of their asses and start building step up Jumps,. If you go to any decent parks in the ice climate that is our home like Mont Saint-Sauveur they're making nearly all their jumps step ups. the big air jump in the x games was a step up. Most jumps David benadick does double corked 1260's off of are step ups (like the one he designed in 91 words for snow). Chads gap,. the list goes on.. Step up jumps allow riders to go fuckin huge and it cuts down on the consequence factor large because your slowing down by the time you reach the landing and your not dropping from 15 - 25 feet in the air. 

resorts make more money from gapers that just ride the slopes thats what

Small time park's are normally just made by the groomer's, so they don't care or know better.  Hell some are even run by ski school's.  It's weak but mtn's need to shell out some cash for real builder's with the snowcat skills.  You want to do something about it try talking to someone in their park's dept, if they have one. 

moonstone always has a nice step up u have to bomb through the pipe to get at it buts its nice and if u have to cash beavervalley a private resort near talisman has a really nice stepup too if u wanna ride it go on a public day there park is mint better than blue by far

at my local hill we had a guy who was hired to just take care of the park. he went to classes and such. well he left because the people at the garage wouldn't let him use a snowcat or even listen to him. also the maintenence  wrecked some of our features by being careless, or because they didn't like the look of it. We had built a nice wooden feature for a competition, and the next day when it came time to go get it to put it in place it was in a pile cut up in 1 foot peices. they are the same people that when we said to leave powder trails after the biggest storm of the season the said fuck that those that want to ride powder go somewhere else.

chads gap isnt a step up. why would you include that jump. who hits that haha
