home depot, lowes or any other store along those lines would most likely have it. turf slips nice enough as long as you have a steep enough slope. its also good cause you can spin off it easy and what not.

-yes its slippery when wet.
-it would be faster with snowgel (if you know how to make it -right and it wont be in the sun)
-you can get it at home depot, lowes, any carpet store, maybe a boating/dock store

It would make sense that the shorter the turf the better it would slide but I have no idea and am wondering the same thing.
