Whistler Blackcomb is excited to announce the extended operations of their biggest terrain parks with Blackcomb Mountain remaining open for spring sessions until May 21 and mountain operations running on that mountain through to June 3, 2007.   “Traditionally, Blackcomb Mountain closes just as the parks hit their peak. 

We are very lucky to have 7 dedicated Park groomers on Blackcomb, Marty Gautrey, Oleksander Iskat, Kirby Litzenberger, Jason Josling, Lucas Ouellete & missing from the photos, Tim Austin & Andy Morrison. Marty is the lead hand & Kirby & Andy are our pipe shapers. Our grooming team is the best ever, bringing grooming experience & a Park background to the team. Nothing happens in our parks & pipe without our Groomers who continue to deliver quality building & grooming each night.

PIPING HOT

The super pipe on Blackcomb is in the best shape ever! Locals & visiting skiers/riders are stoked on the super pipe conditions. Ace pipe shapers Andy Morrison & Kirby Litzenberger have been dedicated to the super pipe all season ensuring all factors are dialed for the super pipe. The groomers are meticulous with the pipe pitch, shape, vert & even the drop in ramp is perfect to gain big air off the first hit. Canadian team rider Justin Lamoureux had nothing but good things to say about the pipe conditions commenting the pipe is as good as it gets during the Telus Ski & Snowboard Festival in April. Ryan Mckeeman has also been ripping the super pipe with his skier students & also said the super pipe is awesome right now.
