Superpipe Opens!

A few updates and reports to pass along to all you Terrain Park adventurers:

Today marks the official grand opening of the SoBe Super Pipe!! If you’re ready for the big air, Okemo is the place to be! We’re the FIRST IN THE EAST to open our Super Pipe for the second year in a row!!


From Ross Powers, Olympic Gold Medalist and Okemo Snowboard Ambassador...


"The pipe opened today which was great. Not only did Okemo have the first pipe in the east, it was in great shape. It was the best East coast opening day pipe I can remember."


And from Dennis Brady, Parks & Pipes Manager...

We still have a flat box, barrel jib, 20ft. jump, down rail, and a C-box on sapphire. Ride them while they last. They will be taken down soon. Apparently there is a high demand to free ski/ride Sapphire trail.

We just finished the first part of the build on lower Nor Easter. A big thanks to Jeremy, Marty, Bill, and My main man Jonny B. Thanks for all your hard work and long hours.

Look for a park tour of Nor'easter with photos in our Parks & Pipes section very soon! (The guys are out taking photos this morning!)
