Review Detail
This is part of a small leisure centre in urban folkestone, in Kent. Myself and my girlfriend have visited the slope a number of times, as we learnt both there and at Chatham.

The slope is very short, roughly 45metres long, and about 10metres wide. There is a small button lift that takes you up.

The surface is Dendex, and quite bumpy in parts.

However we received some very good tuition there, and as it was quite small and "local" could practice and learn without embarrassment or being rushed.
Strengths
*Friendly and decent instructors - although I believe many are only part time.
*Quite cheap prices - we paid £32 for two people for an hour or so private lesson.
*Nearest/only ski slope in the Kent coast areas
*Part of a leisure centre so can go swimming, play football, basketball or have fun on the small skate park there
Weaknesses
*Its size is very small, so can be crowded even with 20 people there
*Hire gear pretty poor, sadly
*Surface not great, but then again its not a specific ski centre, its part of a leisure centre
