So a quick question comes to mind, which mountain would you think has more flat and smooth run? Cypress "Panorama" run is not too bad. And the beginner run which I forgot what it's called. The one with a super slow chair lift lol.
Looking at kakucaekz's pictures of Sun Peak, that looks so amazing. Wide, flat, smooth run that's great for buttering and ground work. Even a nice terrain park as well. Although it's quite of a far drive. Maybe I'll consider going with a few friends and stay in.
I don't remember any runs in Grouse Mountain and I've never been to Seymour.
What do you guys think? Any inputs would be great!
Thanks

you want to find a run with as little pitch as possible.
To me, the first that comes to mind [locally] is panorama. Which is on cypress.
That pitch that is perfect is usually the one that people find trouble for keeping momentum. about 2-300 feet from the the strap point.
With a moderate pitch you'll feel more comfortable with changing your body position constantly, and it will give you more confidence to try it on a slightly steeper pitch.
Once you get the balance points going, you'll really enjoy it when you take it to floating pow.
