Bowles Ski Centre
- Written by: Jim Walker
Bowles offers courses, private lessons and coached practice sessions. There are two main kinds of dry slope. Dendix is the most realistic. Comprised of thousands of bristles arranged in a hexagonal shape to reduce friction, Dendix is seen by many enthusiasts as the nearest thing to snow. Snowflex is more carpet-like, and with its foam backing it is softer and more forgiving and is ideal for the first few lessons and for more nervous learners. Bowles has two slopes, a Snowflex nursery slope and a longer, steeper Dendix one.
