Indoor terrain park?

Me and my buddy were thinking of starting an indoor terrain park in Toronto, I was wondering how many people would come if this plan were to fall through. Depending on this size of the facility it may only be rails and boxes, but it will be on snowflex.

true say, it would have to have some other activities like snowpark niagra for it to make it through the winter or even to attract more people than just skiers and snowboarders.
thanks for the feedback

considering that joyride 150 is able to survive the summer months, i would imagine that an indoor terrain park could attract some attention. while you'd have some huge slowdown from the ski/snowboard community in the winter, all you would need to do is offer a skatepark and boom problem solved.

exactly. It would kind of be like woodward at copper with the tramps, skatepark, foam pits and section for rails and boxes

And what not* then from there you will be able to see if your targeted number of people is big enough to go full scale or not!

there is no such thing these days as "ride at your own risk". if you've got the public riding features on your property you need insurance. there's no way around it.

I've thought about investing in a water park facility north of the city that has a recreational license and has camping facilities. All the water is there just needs some building conversion. Hoping it goes under as attendance is almost nil.

I would be there for sure! I have thought about building a backyard park. We so need this in Ontario. Talking my husband into building a pair of indoor park skis for me that would be good outside too.
