If you do go to a conventional ski area, you would pay for the day usually because you spend so much effort getting there -- say $50 -- whereas with a dome, you might only pay for an hour or two hours at say $15 an hour.

Take your first few runs and practice your techniques before you go out to a conventional ski resort.

For every one that actually gets built, there must be at least 50 or 60 proposals that don't happen. There's five or six built around the world every year and if anything, you know there's a couple more being built every year, rather than a couple less.

They can build half pipes and jumps and they can practice their tricks sort of indefinitely. So it works very well for them.
