im just wondering what would be the best or the most slippery ive heard turf and they have rolls at home depot  but carpet might be better idk. I do know that there should be soap on the surface to make it slide better any sudgestions would be nice.

1. buy Astro Turf from home depot.
2. Build yourself a little drop in
3. Put astro turf over drop in.
4. put Shampoo OR soap and water on your astro turf ( I recomend buying a bulk size shampoo than spraying your turf with a hose with the shampoo on it)

all very true, BUT

the best surface is snow from your local ice rink

i heard this is BETTER than snow actually, the rocks act as jagged ball bearings in the dirt and make you go faster!

yeah if your close to an indoor icerink deff get that snow. its so much better. but if you can't get that then yeah astroturf is the next best thing. ive also used metal garden fencing and that actually worked quite well
