ive been to that place - they claim to have a park & a 70 ft pipe, but they only have a 10ft box & a little jump.
its pretty decent for an indoor place.

that doesn't compare to some of the things they find to waste money on over there. at least it's getting people on skis. i saw a show about a club of rich guys in Kuwait who own Ferrari F430 Challenges and pay people to race them so they can watch. they just sit around and watch other people race their cars. what the fuck?

nice
I don't know if it's been built already, or if the project ended up getting deserted.. But vegas was supposed to have a huge indoor skiing facility built into a caved/underground area.
Was going to be designed with pro athletes in mind as a way for them to train on jumps/pipe/rails in the off-season so there was going to be a pretty nice park built in it.
no idea whatever happened to it. The project might've got shut down, becuase I know there were a few agencies fighting it.

There are more than one indoorski places in Europe. There a a couple in the UK, Holland has like 6 of them (including the largest in the world), Belgium has an indoor halfpipe and is also building the largest in the world (100.000m2) and france and spain have one.
Indoorparks aren't quite big though, because of the lack of space, this one is in holland http://62.100.53.114/view/indexFrame.shtml (yes, that's the BigAirbag thingy in the upper right)
