Looking for Material Name/iNFO

[TEXASS]

Im looking for any info on the material that is used at practice hills, ski jumps ect when there isn't snow.

The surface material used at the Texas Ski Ranch is an example



That Blue material. Anyone familiar with it? Whats the cost?

Try these links below, looks very similar to the material used at Liberty University

while it was almost 10 years ago that I skied there, this spot in Edinburgh, Scotland, just used astro-turf (or some related product).

PS
Googling "Artificial Ski Slopes" turns up a wealth of information:

Watch too many R rated movies and you'll be damned to ski on an active volcano.

Good Links from BGillis. Except snowflex wants to install their product for you at our new GIANT spots facility. Maybe I need to find someone replacing their old stuff. I have a good sized hill/peak and I want enough to make a run about 25 feet wide, 500 feet long.
Mt fake couloir.

Look at Neveplast.

Put several 50' hucks in it and save material.

With a name like TEXASS I figured this would be the plan. Love our Texans that have homes in Aspen. Funny ass breed for sure.

Garmisch they had this longer kinda "astroturf". Coarser and less dense.

Never been To Aspen. I hear it smells of hair spray and high heels. I'm more of a southern San Juan guy. Lift lines and the smell of hot dog farts make me want to puke

I don't do resorts, lifts , or outlet malls in ski towns like Assspen
