Just to let everyone know that we have finally installed the main slope misting system  Feedback over the past few days has been tremendous both from the school kids who have been out there when it's been in the high 20's, to the open practice riders who have come in to give it a go. Freestyle night is tonight so I will let those guys put their own feedback on here. Previous feedback on when Perma-snow had been wet due to the elements has always been very positive. There are no excuses now.....Come and experience the difference!!
I will be launching some offers on our Facebook page shortly.

See you at the slope soon.
All the best

well done the JNL surface that needs no water..... now with water!!
Haha, this confused me when I first read it. The big selling feature originally was that it didn't need misting wasn't it?  The cost benefit of replacing burnt out rental bases and installing misting must have finally worked out in the favour of misting  |

| hey Branny, I was impressed with it. I took my old capita stair master down the other thursday, and not a single sign of melting after 2 hours, and a soft extruded base on perma snow wouldn't have lasted 5 minutes before the sprinklers on a hot day! You should come try it out, I'll put you up for the night if you need, or come to Strawberry jam! |

Just thought I would post link to video one of my instructors has made showing how well Chatham's slope now runs on hot dry days.

We are now running Half-Price Wednesdays from 2-9pm (open practice sessions) with couple of bits of freestyle kit out if you want to have a play!
