SnowGel_101

[pyrohamster1]

would make it just because its blue.

[Hamsterl0Ver1]

imma make some now!!

[WWJEproductions]

so, even if you don't have much of a slope putting a little like, ramp (really small) before the turf the snowgel will give enough speed?

[SnowGel101]

you would need a drop-in platform about 4-5 feet tall to get the necessary speed to hit a wedge ramp to a jib a rail, box or bench.

although, if you visit the website below there is a new bungee launch system that you can use on flat surfaces, without the need for a drop-in.

thx

[SnowGel101]

tarps purchased at home depot or kmart typically aren't the quality needed for skis and snowboards. plus, we recommend a carpet approach to the wedge ramp for the snowgel, then using heavy duty tarps for the landing.

[Mtbking711]

Would That Work to Accually Snowboard on and Grind Rails?

[SnowGel101]

Yes, it was designed for backyard jibbing...

[salwa313]

OOH OOH i wanna slide down!!!!!!!!

[themasterofvids44]

wow... its blue

[soxpatsfan2412]

How much is it?

[stitchluva11]

THAT IS SO COOL!!!!

[archamandite]

so.... its like makin a giant slip 'n' slide?

[SnowGel101]

yes, but for skiing & snowboarding, jibbing, ect...

[midwestboarder]

dude thats sweet!!! can i make it?

[Joseph11194]

you have to buy the snowgel "crystals" but aside from that yes. The best part is it is reusable so you can use the snow again by just rewatering it.

[flappenkrasser]

and this shit doesn't melt right =D

but they dont sell it where i live :'(

[33hallaforadolla3]

that stuff would be so fun to have where do you get it I meen I could be snowboarding in spring !!!!:P <3

[SnowGel101]

you can get snowgel at:

snowgel [dot] com

[mrbaseball444]

if i used just a regular tarp, would this work? also would astro turf work?

[SnowGel101]

check out the site and refer to the BTP kits, for examples on carpet/tarp systems. these riding surfaces were build specifically for snowgel.

backyard terrain park [dot] com

thx

[intaout]

does it melt?

if so how long?

or does it just absorb into the ground?

[SnowGel101]

no, it doesn't melt. but, overtime it will evaporate into small crystals that resemble pop rocks, which its fine to let dry out, since you simply add more mater to the cystals and it comes right back to life.

the snowgel is biodegradable, so it will eventually absorb into the ground. just don't leave it where someone could slip and fall.

check out the website and the BTP Kits, which is the best system to place the snowgel on and to keep it contained.

[xdog12x]

[SnowGel101]

backyard terrain park [dot] com

there is even and international order page.

thx

[TheCottonTop]

is it cold?

[SnowGel101]

no, but it is cool to the touch.

[mgracemm]

Cool can you tell me where to buy it?

[SnowGel101]

you can buy it at:

backyard terrain park [dot] com

thx

[jay5o5]

wow this gel is unbelievable. im gonna have to get me some. thanks for this vid!

[SnowGel101]

thanks!!!

[snowman04511]

this looks cool, im looking into buying some, but i have a question. how many square feet does one of the 14.95 tubs cover? i need to know how many to get.

thank you

[SnowGel101]

we don't measure in square feet, but i can tell you that most people get started with a 3-pak.

[tsrifdaeh]

GREAT it looks really cool. one more question can i buy an old carpet at a garage sale or something and use it instead of the turf?

[SnowGel101]

you can try an old carpet, but since there are so many varieties out there I can guarantee its performance.

even the old carpet you see in this video has been twice upgraded to the current carpet we use on our BTP Kits. but, if you are on a budget i understand.

another feature of our BTP Kits is the camo tarp, placed under the carpet, that keeps the SnowGel from getting lost in the grass, were it can't be used again. basically, the tarps keep your gel lasting much longer.

[amrv770]

im gonna get me some of that

i have 2 questions tho

1. is that the BTP Carpet A?

2. and if it is how much gel should i put on it, should i dump the whole container or little at a time.

haha pretty lame questions, but that will b great practice and alot of fun

[SnowGel101]

no, that is an old carpet version. BTP Kit A is shown in another youtube video of ours, titled "...making yellow snow" most likely displayed in the "related videos" section of this page.

I would recommend using a full 5 gallon container, even a bit more. grooming it will make it last longer and keep it on the carpet too.

yes, its great practice and tons of fun. thanks.

[tsrifdaeh]

can you reuse this stuff?

can you use it in warmer climates?

what happens when it melts?

[SnowGel101]

yes, you can reuse the gel over and over again. you can contain it, cover it or even let it dry out into hard crystals, then simply add water for your next jib sesh.

yes, you use it in warm climates, we are based in Arizona.

And, it doesn't really melt... the water will eventually evaporate and it will dry up into crystals, that can be used again. its really cool!!!

[XDigitalTwitch]

hey guys this stuff works and love it, but i got a question, and its not dumb like will it hurt my skis lol, its where did u get that drill bit? thanks

[SnowGel101]

cool... glad you are enjoying your SnowGel!

most any local hardware store will carry drill bits for stirring.

[shmoo1000]

how do u exactly get the snowgel back in the bucket once its on the carpet. Also does it work on a big tarp

[SnowGel101]

you can gather the gel with a plastic shovel.

you can even leave it and let it dry up, covered in the shade, then re-activate back to gel by simply adding water.

works good on a tarp, but it tends to slide around more... the best option is to have a piece of carpet on top of the tarp to better hold the gel. then the tarp will contain any get that goes off the carpet.

[gridiron411]

how long does this stuff last?

[SnowGel101]

SnowGel lasts a long time depending on how well you take care of it... it can even dry out and be brought back to life by adding more water.

[HoarBros]

is that stuff cold, like does it actually get like snow???were can u get some of this????

[SnowGel101]

it is cool to the touch but doesn't create cold temps... you can get some at:

snowgel [dot] com, and

backyard terrain park [dot] com

There are three unique colors to choose from.

[AdamHockey73]

yay blue snow i all was wanted blue snow instead of yellow!!!! i bet it taste alot better to!!!! jk :P

[A1M4V]

if i rode my board on that stuff whould my board get all covered with the blue coloring? does it wash off esily? do you have colorless (clear) SnowGel?

[snowgel4snowboarders]

it all washes off easily after use. to learn more check out:

snowgel [dot] com

[UnosPizzaGuy]

i am greatly impressed. i went through about 20 cans of WD40, and 5 cans of garage door lube on sheets of plywood all summer long. but i have some questions.

if i leave a decent layer of this stuff, how long will it stay for? does it melt back into water? can i put tarps around my setup, recollect the snowgel, and use it forever?

[SnowGel101]

thanks... it lasts for a long time if you take care of it, covering it with a tarp is one of the best ways to preserve it. it actually dries into small crystals, that can be brought back to life simply by adding water. it works over and over again. check out the following site to see backyard terrain park kits designed specifically for SnowGel, with double overlapping tarps:

[soulplasma]

Shit this is perfect for my summer rail?? is the fake snowcold?

[SnowGel101]

Thanks soulplasma. The fake snow does feel cool to touch, after making it, but it is not cold.

[killabanana84]

sweet stuff.

[SnowGel101]

Thanks. Type in "SnowGel" in the search box above and look for a video posted by ARSpickert. He produced a backyard skiing video of himself using Global Warming Green SnowGel.

[tomabin]

Do you need to use a certain type of carpet and how often do you need to resupply the area?

[SnowGel101]

Some carpets perform better than others, but most outdoor carpets work well. You can visit the website to learn more about backyard ski & snowboard specific carpet/tarp systems, which greatly extends the use of SnowGel. You can also add water over and over again for the gel to come back to life. You may add another single-pak on occasion for fresh gel. Website:

[mafaiverde]

hi,i'm from France and i find that "snow" really nice!

Where can i find that in Europe?or how much does the shipping cost from USA to France??

Or some free ladle?

[SnowGel101]

I'm glad you like the SnowGel. We love it too! To find shipping cost to your country, simply choose your favorite SnowGel color, then follow the "check-out" process at:

This just in... new $8.95 flat-rate shipping, to anywhere in the United States, even for a 12-pak. We ship around the world, too. New $37 flat-rate global shipping, even for a12-pak.

[steezking]

how many of those containers would i need to have a snowboard rail set up and what kind of carpet is that

[SnowGel101]

That depends on what size set up you have. Some users have a very steep approach, which requires much less Snowgel. But, I would say a 3-pak is the average order. The carpet is a standard indoor/outdoor carpet.

[Jyer]

This seems very interesting that I'd probably try but how much area do you think one thing of the snowgel would cover? Could you possibly upload a video of a small set up using the snowgel to get an idea of how much will be needed

[SnowGel101]

Thanks Jyer, we are working on your request, but you will most likely need a 3-pak to get things started. The single-pak is more of a sample size. Plus, we offer a volume discount for the larger pak sizes.

[adioprototype]

I will set up a demo w/ that stuff in a very popular spot in ohio if you send me 100 gallons. Cept im not good enough to impress w/ my skills, but people will be like, holy shizzy there is snow in the summer time.

[SnowGel101]

Hey there. Thanks for your offer and enthusiasm. Send us an email and tell us more about yourself.

[thesevenrider]

cool...sort of. It doesn't expand enough to be of any real use for me.

[SnowGel101]

Thanks, sort of... the SnowGel expands to 10x its original size. I noticed your ski video at the college... and, of course we don't expect you to purchase enough SnowGel to cover that large and wide of an area, without carpet. SnowGel is designed for backyard use on outdoor carpeting. It doesn't require as much SnowGel as you may think to cover a nice backyard set up.

[SnowGel101]

We just concentrated the gel even more making it expand 15x.

[SkiFreestyle243]

That is so sick!!! Does it melt??? I'm working on ways to ski in the summer... I was thinking Plexiglas but that is some sick stuff!!

[SnowGel101]

Thanks! You are correct, the SnowGel doesn't melt. It will dissipate over time, but the rate depends on how well you take care of the SnowGel.
