my buddy worked on building that place. He said it’s pretty cool. I’m interested in seeing how the synthetic ice works.

I also read somewhere there is a redbull snowboarding comp coming there in July.

Here’s a great fucking idea! Take the one thing the people in Buffalo complain the most about and can never wait til it’s gone and make it available 365 days a year! Even better, make them pay for it!

I am going to go out on limb and say they are mainly targeting tourists visiting the falls not people who live here.

This could work IF done/marketed properly.

Impossible. People don’t go to the falls for vacation. The ones that do can’t swing the $40/person. :uhh: 😛

Plus, any tourist coming to the falls in summer won’t pack the correct clothes to even go to this. It’s real snow, hence cold.

They’ll say “damn, I didn’t dress correctly. Maybe next time.”
