Shred Dubai

The other morning, Mount Everest’s favorite jet-set shredder, Alyssa was lucky enough to visit Ski Dubai, the first indoor shred slope in the Middle East. The 22,500 square foot structure houses a rope tow, quad lift, and 5 runs…the longest covers 400 meters.

Ski Dubai is attached to the Mall of the Emirates, so visitors can walk right in, take some runs and continue shopping. Alyssa passed on that each skier & rider got pants/jackets/socks/boots along with their hard goods rental for one charge 180aed for 2 hrs ($49). They did make you buy your own gloves & hats though (pretty sneaky seeing as Middle Eastern locals really have no reason to have ever bought beanies or mittens before). There’s a practice slope for the kiddies and first-timers accessible from the rope tow, and the lift has 2 drop-off points. Ski Dubai boasts the world’s first indoor black diamond which Alyssa said wasn’t as steep or difficult as anything here in the states, but FUN.

…yeah, we’re not jealous or anything
