My favorite crusier at Sunday River is Obsession. I have been known to lap that trail many times on groomer days, and usually hit it at least once regardless of conditions.

Another vote for Twister at Gore.

Haven't been to Wildcat, but will try it out for first time next weekend. Looking forward to skiing both Polecat and Lynx.

Polecat is great one to just let them go on!!!!!

At Cannon, there are a couple. Ravine and Upper Cannon for the curves, makes your feel like a F! driver!!!
From the summit to base ripping - Tramway to Bypass to Extension to Avalanche aka Old Downhill Course. Wicked Pissa!!!!!!

Same for Rogue Angel and Excalibur. Rare to have 1500 vert uninterrupted runs in New England. Stowe is great for cruising, but even all of it's runs are sliced and diced up with various cross overs and intersections. Sunday River doesn't get the praise of a Stowe, Sugarbush, Sugarloaf ect., but Jordan Bowl is an exceptionally well designed terrain pod. Kind of odd that it sits right next to one of the worst designed trail pods in Oz.

Agreed. SR has so many long uninterupted runs its hard to count:
Obsession
Right Stuff
Rogue Angel
Excalibur
Lollapalooza

Second on Polecat and the Elbow, Cruiser combo at Sugarbush.
