all i used was regular carpet i found alongside the road. youll need a fairly steep dropin but if you wet it and soap it a little it works fine.

Astroturf is what they mostly use on artificial slopes and hockey. Though i don't know if you can find that in DIY shops in holland... There are importers but it isn't cheap, almost €60/m2, so maybe experimenting with stuff and soap (groene zeep?) will do the trick. :) good luck
