bryce resort virginia. it's like tank tracks on your feet and quite sketchy. they went there in TC. it's only a couple hours from my house and i used to have races there on real snow in the winter. it's not a very nice mountain and has one black slope. it's more of a hill and not that fun.

i remember seeing some blog on a dif site about this. its def poossible but i have no idea where to buy them. you can also ski on loose dirt on a steepish slope in normal skis, but it ruins them haha. i saw it on some on demand warren miller think it looked pretty sick
