Teenager builds dry ski slope in back garden, Sleaford, Lincolnshire, UK - 21 Feb 2018
A teenager has built a huge DRY SKI SLOPE in his family's back garden to train for the next WINTER OLYMPICS. Skier Dan Abra, 16, hopes to represent team GB at the Winter Olympics in 2022, but his nearest ski slope is two hours away. So now the teenager has constructed a 1.6 metre-high ski ramp at home, with help from his dad, Simon, so he can practise around the clock every day. Dan, who is part of the Snowsport England Home Nations Park and Pipe Academy for the 2017/18 season, used wooden pallets coupled with rails, two types of ski matting and artificial grass to make the tower, 5.5 metre-long ramp and pipe, which he uses as part of his freestyle ski training regime at home in Sleaford, Lincolnshire.
