What a load of rubbish.

I've never been before - I tend to stick to actual mountains and the odd trip to the local dryslope.

That is in no way snow. Its frozen icing sugar I'm sure. It doesn't feel or sound like snow.

The slope is tiny. I swear the dryslope at Kendal is bigger.

I went during the day today because Thursday and Friday nights are freestyle nights and they leave some rails and stuff out. The kickers were ridiculous and the rails were fenced off.

Plus the place was absolutely crawling with snowploughers (good on them learning and everything but I'd like to be able to pick up a bit of speed...)

Oh, and only one lift was open and the queue was huge.

Grrrrrrr. It cost far too much for that.

I'd rather ski on plastic (at least there's plenty to play on at Kendal)
 
Been to the new one in Manchester, would be great for a beginner (though extortionate prices) but I'm sticking to snowflex til they make the freestyle stuff worthwhile
 
I was there today teachin skiing all day, and it was my last shift yey cali, but another stopry,

It was fresh snow ontop, so always is slow for a day,

The lifts were busy cuz the second lift was having its annual service, unfortunatley it has to happen at some point,

The lil tiny jump was open

And the rails are closed because newbs nail themselves all frikken day on them. And i saw nobody all day who looked like they could ride rails, and i even saw one guy land on his head from a 3 foot jump.

in your face, in a typical newschoolers way.

Muchos love really.

ermm was you rocking headphones sat on a bench,
 
Headphones? Yar that was me.

I was meant to be helping my mum n her boyfriend learn to ski snow, but we weren't there long.
 
Complain get some free time, the park is gash this week anywya, all the effert went into the hull street session.
 
i ski at cas every thursday and friday n so what if it does not feel like real snow its great 4 freestyle and also keeping up my tricks inbetween holidays plus i learnt many gring tricks there ( 270 on pretsil 270 off) and when they have the up box out its great i learnet a 540 off it which helped me on the bigger rails on holiday so shut up about indoor its great 4 keeping my skill level up.
 
Yeah I didn't really mean to have such a rant...was just tired n stuff (took 3 hours to get there, damn traffic)

If I lived nearby I'd probably live in there haha.
