Salt.

It helps soooo much.

We got our trashcans full and immediately salted it like mad the whole inrun. The jump lasted till we were ready to leave and we never needed more snow due to meltage. Im in DC so its like 40 degrees or higher.

Its real good shit.

Keep it handy.

'Rock Salt' works best. It is the kind of salt that is used for making homemade ice cream so it makes it extra cold.

[skiWASHDC]

[awsomecoolguy]

i'm all about water softener salt

 

[jmason]

something that works better than salt is fertilizer. its what they use in racing when its higher than freezing outside so that they don't make huge ruts in the hill. try fertilizer next time it'll work wonders.

 

[SlickRick.]

yea, but all mostly all with high security

 

[EVAN.F]

i use shredded tires. bits of rubber. very slick

 

[*emma*]

where do you get rock salt??? at like a grocery store?? Or can you just use the salt you put on your driveway??

 

[Skiing_Is_Fun]

Correct me if im wrong, but the salt you put on your driveway MELTS the snow.

 

[jmason]

it does in mass, but not if u put a little bit on. (it will melt a layer, then the layer will freeze over - hardening the jump or w/e) but don't bother with salt use fertilizer!
