This was one of my most recent trips and it’s recommended in the Footprints snowboarding book, as well as by some friends of mine who really know their stuff. When you first get to the resort at Folgaria, you’ll probably wondering what all the fuss is about. Folgaria is ok, but it’s pretty ordinary. But once you see Jurassik Park you’ll understand what everyone’s talking about. It’s the best park I’ve ever been too, it’s got the best set up, the best selection of obstacles, it’s got boxes, double boxes, kickers, including an 18m kicker, rails, the best pipes and the best bumps. It’s also got some nice rolling hills to practice jumps and drops. It’s all well kept and smooth and not too busy and the people I was sharing the park with were nice and encouraging, I think like me they were just happy to be there. For me the highlight was the wall ride, I’ve never seen anything like it. No scenery but for once I wasn’t looking for a distraction!
