At Safety Pad, we manufacture protective padding that wraps around the concrete pillars ,dividing the different slope sections, and at the bottom of the slope when beginners haven’t quite worked out how to slow down. Although it’s not regarded to be one of the most dangerous sports, there can be long-term implications of injuries sustained through snowboarding and skiing; and as these indoor centres cater for all experience levels, it’s a regular occurrence to see skiers or snowboarders falling quite spectacularly.
Many of these falls occur with colliding with the pillars or crashing into the wall at the bottom, so having a layer of foam reduces the impact of the hit dramatically. They also come in a wide range of colours that can both increase the visibility of the pillars and signify the different slope sections.
