Is that the indoor one Frans? I read about that place, it was super expensive to create.

Outdoor seems a bit, well ehhhhh, chalenging don't you think? In the middle of the desert? Money's no object there I suppose. Tokyo has one too, 150 meters high. It is so high in fact, that it is officially approved for matches

I realized that after I had posted it.

I can imagine a lift ticket there must cost a few pesos.

Ha, I knew it was Dubai. I just saw a TV show on the construction of it. There's six of those ski-drome places around the globe. Amazing engineering feats!

The one in Dubai has the only 'diamond' run in the world, among the indoor places that is. My guess is that even by Ontario standards, that diamond would be pretty easy. But it's the thought that counts.

I'd love to try one of those places out though.

Very expensive to construct,and extremely expensive for the climate control.But they got loads of cheap oil,to keep it running.
