No Snow: Ski Simulator To The Rescue
By Mike James - posted in Household GadgetsWith the Ski Simulator, you no longer need to wait for your next snow vacation or travel to far off mountain ski resorts to enjoy skiing.
Available through Pro Idee, the Ski Home Simulator offers you the thrills of skiing as it vibrates, rotates and tilts down 30 different courses.
It’s a step up from the We Ski game but the price difference is substantial as this pro ski simulator costs $2300. If money is tight but this is something you’d be interested in, look at it this way, if you forgo a winter ski trip vacation one year, you’d save the money for airfare, a ski chalet, and ski passes which would probably be enough to pay for this rather fun simulator.

Not too sure with this one, especially considering all the snow that we have here in Canada right now haha.
It’s an idea, but at that price, I rather buy some skis, and invite some friends along!
Of course, if you live in a country with hot weather where there’s no snow or barely any, it’s a good concept. Still the price is a killer…

True, just as an example, Dubai is a hot weather city and I believe that they have a public access indoor ski slope situated in a mall that is well used. You never know if someone might want to get a little extra ski time with this simulator.
