this is a simple fact of physics. great you are try to mimic what happen when fricton melt a water layer on snow with the misting system but it is still plastic and the harder you edge the more friction you have. i have been to two slopes and my base was hot. its a fact. its fun sure but it is not snow. hell the next time im there ill bring my laser thermometer and will take a measurement and we can compare it with that of one when i am on snow.

No it's not snow. I don't think that Snowflex claim that it is. However it is consistent for tricking, which snow isn't. Snow conditions change all the time.

Did you know that scientists have recorded 83 different types of snow and the inuits have 30 words for snow as the conditions change all the time?

Also where have you tried it?
