Top Ten Terrain Park Mountains

We ranked our favorite terrain park mountains based on the size and number of available terrain parks reserved for boarders with half pipes, boxes and jump formations, rails, ... These are the ski resorts with the best terrain parks.

1) Keystone Colorado (US)

Check out A51 terrain park and the Main Street jump line. Keystone has more jumps, features and unique features than I have seen at any other mountain. Keystone also has feature zones dedicated to beginners and intermediates so one does not have to go big all at once.

See our review of Keystone CO for more information.

2) Mammoth Mountain California (US)

Multiple terrain parks with half pipes, rails, jumps both large and small. Mammoth has invested in half pipe shaping equipment to provide shape consistency. I personally enjoy the heavy metal tunes provided over a speaker system at each of the terrain parks. Some line-ups occur at the jumps.

See our review of Mammoth Mountain for more information.

3) Breckenridge Colorado (US)

Large terrain parks and snow board friendly. Five official terrain parks:

Freeway (largest): Rails, jumps and a half pipe (475 ft long x 15 ft high x 50 ft wide)
Country Boy: Rails and jumps
Gold King: Half pipe, jumps and rails
Trygves: Jumps, rails and a half pipe
Eldorado: Half pipe, jumps and rails

Breckenridge has a 20 year snowboarding tradition.
