My dad really like the idea of indoor skiing in the US. That would be so sick if it was just one big park. Would anyone drive to session it

yeh i remember that place they were going to hve like a skate park and all types of stuff in there too. I would be willing to drive far in summer and stuff but since the hill wouldnt be to big it would probrably be packed. still an awesome idea

I thought there was supposed to be a HUGE mall built in North Toronto with an indoor ski hill in it. What ever happened to that?

The Toronto one?

People who lived in the area thought it would make the area too busy and loud and crap, so it was rejected. It was going to be at what used to be the old airforce base... Downsview I think.

theres an artificial one in the UK, not indoors but carpeted and kinda compact, you could fit it indoors

Ya it was going to be at the Downsview airforce base. It would be great because you could take the TTC right to it!

Isn't it like crazy expensive to ski in Japan?

yah, that'd be so sick. I've been to a dry ski slope made of this weird plastic stuff, it was pretty gay though, had potential, but not really big enough, ah well, all good.

yeah that sprite arena is an outdoor plastic slope, its pretty sick its evn got a drop off, but it hurts like a mofo if you fall, in england theres two indoor ski hills, but there pretty small and they both have like one or two jumps and maybye the odd rail, they really desogned for people to learn and practice on before going on holiday, if they made a full park one witha proper chair that would be dope

I was thinking that you could make alot of money doing that, just build a hill out of wood and scaffolding in a big old hockey arena which would already be cold enough and then just buy snowmakers and make snow on the hill and install a t-bar and charge people 10 bucks to get in.

D: I don't know the exact way to freeze that snow but there was -9 degrees celsius in that room. The pipe was also pretty damn icy but actually it doesn't matter ;)

It'd be sweet in the summer, but pretty useless in the winter.

the gotcha glacier in socal got postponed for awile. if they do build it, mammoth is gonna run it so there will be a good park. its gonna be a huge ass building, and half of it will be park and pipe. underneath the ski run, there are gonna be a water park, mini golf, skate park and a bunch of other shiznit

I just made a half pipe and 5 kickers in my yard. thehalf pipe has 10 foot walls and is 100 feet long it isnt bad considering took snow from all over in a dump truck. (skating rinks-parking lots) we dont get that much snow here in massachusetts.
