Once again, the Funslope Planai is going to offer plenty of fun hours to the guests of Upper Styria’s top ski destination this season. The 850-meter long course leads over various jumps, waves and through steep curves and, what’s more, the friendly Funslope dweller Slopy is always eagerly awaiting to “high five” the visitors. Besides, from this season onwards and as soon as the upper part of the Funslope is finished, there is a new element to be discovered as well. The “Eight” invites the skiers and snowboarders to follow an exciting curve combination in the shape of the number 8. By the way, this innovative element was developed in the course of the idea competition of the last Funslope Innovation Days.
Since the beginning of this season the Funslope Planai has a speedier brother – the brand-new Funcross Planai! The course, which was developed with a ski/snowboard cross in mind, will certainly draw the attention of all the sportive skiers and snowboarders. Here they get the chance to prove their skills on numerous steep curves and jumps. In contrast to the more family-friendly Funslope, the course is more advanced, that’s why you can reach higher speed, which will definitely please the ambitioned winter sports enthusiasts who are looking for an action-packed adventure. What really makes it stand out is that at Planai the Funslope and the Funcross virtually merge together thanks to two connected tunnels. Along with the Superpark Planai, which has been a hit with the freestyle scene for years, an entire “Fun Mountain” has emerged, where winter sports enthusiasts of all skill levels will find an exciting alternative to the common slopes.
The official opening of the Funcross took place last Friday, when the skiers and snowboarders got their first chance to test the park in terms of fun and speed – cool music, presentation and free snacks included. For an extra dose of motivation everybody was invited to take part in a competition in order two win 3 helmets by TSG. Plus, ski bunny Hopsi was present as well, leading the visitors through the course. The huge crowd once again proved that a visit to a Funslope or a Funcross is an essential ingredient for a perfect day of skiing fun!
