SUPERPIPE - We are excited to announce a new Pipe Cutter to the team. The Superpipe will be built and maintained by Stu Epps this season. Stu has made the move to Bachelor from Boreal with Ellerbe. Stu brings his 10 years experience in a Snow Cat and 5 years pipe cutting experience to the team. Pat Malendoski will return and consult again with us this season! The Mt. Bachelor Superpipe has served as the home to the Chevy Truck US Snowboard Grand Prix and 2006 Olympic Qualifier! Next to the Pine Marten Express, the Superpipe is 400 feet long with 18.5 foot walls. With our Zaugg Pipe Monster hooked up to a winch cat this season and Stu cutting the pipe almost every night, look for the pipe to be better than ever before. Pipe is open cut on 1/24/08

SLOPESTYLE - Size of features- LARGE- Slopestyle has the largest features on the mountain and is where the advanced to pro shreds will most likely be found. Located beside the pipe below the Pine Martin Express, you will find tables, step ups, and step downs that range from 50 to 65 feet, along with more challenging rails. Slopestyle has a newly graded slope for this winter and is sure to have a crowd.

AIR CHAMBER - Size of features- MEDIUM to LARGE - Air Chamber is a park that anyone from an intermediate park shred to a seasoned pro can ride through and have a fun time. At nearly a mile long and covering 850 vertical feet next to the Skyliner Express lift, Air Chamber is a highlight of the Mt. Bachelor Terrain Park.

iPARK - Size of features - MEDIUM - iPark is for those looking to improve on their skills before stepping up to the larger parks. Though geared towards the intermediate shredder, all abilities will enjoy riding iPark.

SUNSHINE PARK - Size of features -SMALL - Just learning or getting comfortable with riding park, Sunshine Park has features and flow that will get the beginning shredder accustomed to the ins and outs of riding park. Anything from ride-on boxes to rollers to mini table tops can be found here.
