SSV have just bought their own Airbag. it will be out at least once a week. probably more often so if your within a few hours of sheffield and fancy having some fun with little pain you know where to head.

hiya Phil.
at the moment we aint worked out the price so cant answer that one.
the location is to be temporarily at the bottom of the main slope. we have built a kicker to place in front of the bag.
in the next few months there will be some ground works to clear a few trees, built a dedicated run in just for the Airbag.
as soon as the work starts on the dedicated run i will post up some plans.

it's good to see some investment at SSV as last time i went up i was shocked about how badly run down it was on the slope
so i hope it's going to be invested in on the rest of the facilities, ie, replacing worn out snowflex etc as well, rather than just on toys!! (or has it already??) |

the water jump was always a weird idea, it' oop north FFS
but a strange thing to start of with, it's a gimick (no disrespect to airbag companies hahah)
what would attract users is good condition, well maintained slope area
SSV used to be the best dryslope in the country, with progressive features and a kick ass scene, that won't be restored by adding a once a month bouncy castle... whats next a ball pit and climbing frame?? |

already got the ballpit and frame Branny. the new owner reciently build a kids soft play area to keep the little ones happy while the older ones ride.
there is a slow but constant replacement of the snowflex. Robin is trying to replace 10 sections a week. its a nasty job, pulling out hundreds of staples aint easy.
But with around 1000 sections of carpet it will take some time to complete it all so at the moment the priorities are on the most worn out sections. |
