Dry Slopes in South-West?

Can anyone recommend a decent dry slope in the South West of England? I know there's one in Glucester, and another just south of Bristol, but has anyone tried them, and would it be worth a visit to either of them? If they're seriously bad then I wouldn't bother. Cheers Cool

One in Torquay, and one in Plymouth as well. Both good.

Hi Plymouth is good! It has 3 slopes, the main one is 140m long. Good instructors there.

Thanks for all the replies! I might try Gloucester, Plymouth is quite a bit further for me (Bristol area) Cool

Hi Titi14
You have to try Churchill just outside Bristol going down towards the airport.
More interesteing than Gloucester, it kind of winds down through trees with bumps
and other obstacles (skiers ???), good bar also, can get busy !!!
Still hurts when you lose it but at least it gives you an incentive to stay up.

Ok, that sounds good! I hadn't heard much about that one, but that would be the nearest, and if it's worth a trip then I might just try that on Saturday! Smile
Cheers! Cool
