How do you make artificial snow with no energy? Take ice that’s already being made elsewhere and recycle it. That’s what they’ll do in Barcelona, where a nearby port already converts liquified natural gas into gaseous N.G., a process that uses thousands of gallons of seawater to warm the gas, and in so doing, creates ice that’s normally chucked. Instead, it’ll be used to make fake snow. If you still have your doubts about indoor shredding, there are some pros today who learned indoors, and for some comps, like jumps, it makes perfect sense: intense reps breed specific talents faster. Just like what’s happened with climbing gyms.
