Summer Snowmaking?

[Balbertt]

Has anyone ever thought of a summer snow making system? with a freezer then all you do is shovel it out and put it on your take off. I just thought of it.

yes try looking behind your local ice skating rink. they will have piles of it just melting away

 

[Balbertt]

yeah i do that, I was just checking if there are any savvy snow making ns'ers out there.

Before you go scheming any revolutionary ideas, it would behoove you to look into how snow is made. Here's a hint: It requires cold air temperatures.

 

[Balbertt]

yeah bad idea.

Tis possible but one would need lots of money. A really big freezer would be expensive to run during the summer if it was outside.

i would say below 32* is a good start

The perfect temp for snow making in 27 degrees

if only it were even close to that simple

Making a homemade snowgun work in the winter is pretty fucking difficult too (for like $50 I made one that spews water everywhere and falls over!)

I know how to make damn snow I've been on my hills crew for two years now

Me and my buddies purchased a load of gravel. Slides surprisingly well
