No matter if beginner or pro: on our Funslope at Sandiger Boden, even more fun is inevitable for everybody.
It starts with a speedboost, which brings the traveling speed to funslope temperature. You continue on sweeping waves and dynamic steep curves. Now it's getting serious, because the Slopecop is following you: Armed with a laser pistol, it measures the speed and gives funny comments. The fast ride continues in a spiral, through a tunnel and then straight through to a final jump. Two integrated photo spots catch the most beautiful moments.
