Boreal Mountain Resort has added one more feature to the resort, no longer limiting the activities to just skiing and snowboarding. It is adding an indoor skateboarding bowl.
"So many kids in the area use outdoor skate parks when they are open," said Racheal Woods, public relations manager at Alpine Meadows, which owns Boreal.
"It's so nice to offer an indoor alternative," Woods said. "Now the season doesn't have to end just because it's snowing."
Boreal boasts the indoor skateboard park, which is the first of its kind at any winter ski and snowboard resort, is of top quality, built by Vertical Production Industries.
VPI has a reputation for building high quality ramps, parks and features for events like the X Games, including the 70-foot mega ramp made famous by X Games gold medalist Danny Way, Woods said.
"They've really got it together as far as architecture goes," Woods said.
The skate bowl is located adjacent to the resort's main winter lodge and will be open Monday through Thursday from 3 to 9 p.m., Friday and Saturday from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. and Sunday from 11 a.m. until 4 p.m.
There is also a $25 frequent-user membership fee that will offer members a discounted admission price, which is normally $5 mid-week and $7 on weekends.
"I think this is really going to change, in particular, the way small resorts operate and what they offer their guests," Woods said. "Why limit yourself to two sports if you can offer more to people."
