Check Out the Snowy Treadmill That Claims to Be the Invention of the Future​

Bizarre, but crazy enough to work?​

In a development that could be mistaken for a subplot from a science fiction film, the Australian company Snowtunnel is pioneering an interesting concept in snow sports technology. They have constructed immense, revolving metal cylinders, coated with ice and synthetic snow, enabling snowboarders and skiers to essentially ride on a giant snowy treadmill. The Snowtunnel, significantly smaller in scale compared to traditional dry or indoor ski slopes, presents a potentially more cost-effective alternative.
