Exactly, every large slope I have looked at have big turfs but this seams to be the exception. It's very strange.
It's not very difficult riding down steep grass slopes because you have so much room, you can make the as steep as you want them to be. I can't go up there any time soon as it's usually covered in snow, maybe an overcast day in early spring, late winter would be good. The grass will be short or dead and the ground won't be frozen.

Its almost like someone needs to invent a board for riding down steep slopes covered in snow...

really? how do you attatch it? add a small lanyard that attatches to an airvent as well to stop it getting away? and use the rubber thing to stop it popping out.

Some nice downhill runs and the grass lope looks unreal. I've never found a grassy hill thats been hard enough to ride always too soft or too long. Looking forward to the footage (Y)
