Talk:Indoor ski slope

The first indoor slope in the world was Mt. Thebarton, Adelaide, Australia and it's still in operation today. SSAWS in Tokyo was certainly one of the first and one of the longest, but it is now closed and the site will be redeveloped.

The UK has a third operation indoor slope at Castleford.

There's a big map of all the UK indoor proposals at www.theboarder.co.uk —Preceding unsigned comment added by 137.213.254.241 (talk • contribs)

Endless
What does this mean? Is it a circle or something with a lift partway along? A treadmill? There is a * symbol next to this, but no explanation129.67.86.189 (talk) 16:24, 1 May 2011 (UTC) There is a link below the table to another wikipedia page that is also a bit light on information.

Longest UK indoor slope
The biggest indoor slope in the UK is Snow Factor, Braehead, Glasgow, Scotland [1] featuring a 200m long main slope, with a 50m x 50m dedicated teaching slope.

According to the Snow Factor website, this is incorrect. It is 168m long: http://www.snowfactor.com/welcome/we-are-snowfactor.php

The longest appears to currently be Chil Factore in Manchester at 180m long: http://www2.chillfactore.com/

However, this would be eclipsed by the Leisure Dome in Weston-super-Mare when it is built, which is planned to be 210m http://www.leisuredome.co.uk/Home.aspx/Introduction Rbirkby (talk) 13:17, 9 January 2013 (UTC)

Dates of operation
The summary table should list the dates of operation (end date, if closed; otherwise, with no end date) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 155.91.45.231 (talk) 17:05, 18 March 2013 (UTC)
