Just about an hour south of Charlottesville sits Lynchburg, Virginia, home to 20,000 evangelical students and now, a YEAR ROUND SNOWLESS SKI SLOPE.

Ever dreamed of skiing or snowboarding in the summer? Now you can! Liberty University presents an attraction sure to revolutionize your winter sports action. Coming soon to Lynchburg, Va., the Liberty Mountain Snowflex Center features the most innovative technology in the snow sports industry, SNOWFLEX®. Originating in Europe, Snowflex will debut on U.S. soil with the completion of the artificial incline.  The Discovery Channel is documenting this historic event, filming portions of the construction to air on a future episode of “Daily Planet.”

Invented by Brian Thomas of Briton Engineering, Snowflex is a multi-layer, synthetic material that simulates the effects of snow, allowing maximum speed and edge control for making turns. With the help of small misting devices, Snowflex stays moist, giving it the slip and grip of real snow. Snowflex’s extra padding and support enhances the most extreme maneuvers and stunts, culminating in the ultimate adventure.

 Although mountain ski resorts are only accessible during cold weather months, the Liberty Mountain Snowflex Center will be available year-round, day and night.

While on LU’s campus, prospective students, current students, alumni and their families can spend quality time together, taking full advantage of everything the slope offers, including skiing, snowboarding and tubing.

Monster jumps, killer quarter pipes, slick rails and a high-speed tube chute are just some of the highlights of this snow-free ski slope. Thanks to Snowflex’s advanced technology, these features will never melt or change shape.
