Review Detail
Pontypool dryslope is a dendix slope thats 230m in length. Its pretty wide as compared to other slopes and is quite steep for a dryslope.
At the moment there are 2 fixed rails and three ramps of varying size. there is also a bit of a mogul run to one side of the slope and a hefty tree near the bottom in the middle to keep the beginners on their toes!
A section of the bottom third of the slope is marked out as a beginners area with its own drag lift.
There is a pommel lift servicing the rest of the slope.
The slope is well staffed with friendly peeps more than willing to help out when needed.
Lessons are available and rates are reduced for riders with their own boards.
The slope also has a misting system for a bit of extra glide.
Strengths
fixed ramps n rails
quite big as dryslopes go
terrain is relatively variable
Weaknesses
dendix is quite old and a bit worn in places.
misting system could do with a bit of maintenance up top
