The End of an Era...We are Shutting Down the Messageboard

The messageboard is now in read-only mode and no new posts or topics can be created. We will leave the messageboard up for historical purposes, but you will not be able to make new posts or comment on existing ones.

We have started a Discord server and hope that you all will join us on there. Technology has changed over the years and maintaining the messageboard has become somewhat of a pain in the butt and Discord offers many features for users, the main one being a very polished mobile app.

We really hope you all will join us on Discord and think you will like the platform. Use the invite link below to join.

It would be rediculously expensive to cover the whole slope, and that is what you would have to do to be useful. If they did that, why make snow, just ski on the snowflex itself. There is a reason that snowflex hills are small and compact.

My bad I was probably not clear…. What is was proposing and asking about was the use of snowflex in specific areas… for instance if there is a bare spot on the slope, covering that specific spot with snow flex as opposed to the entire slope…

Why not just take the snowcat and smear a little snow over the bare spot? Snowflex has to have a moistening system which would be the deal breaker. If it was like tossing a rug on a bare spot, it might be more realistic, but since it isn't, no.
