Check this out www.ski-trac.com it's indoor skiing but the ground moves so the run appears longer than it actually is... interesting.

"Using new "Mag-lev" technology, the snow deck, with its 200 mm (8 in) snow cover will "float" on an electro-magnetic field without the need for wheels, thus ensuring frictionless, vibrationless, silent, and maintenance-free rotation. Drive power will be supplied by linear motor"

Haha, this is waaaaay to weird and that thing can turn up to a speed of 30km/h? :P But apparently there have been plans to build a thing like that in Australia in 2002 and that didn't happen. It just sounds way too expansive to me to let that thing operate... We'll just have to see it they will actually build that thing in China, and if they do, then i think it is time for me to pay a visit to my family back there:P
