PearlSlide is a high-speed, low-friction sliding surface engineered to deliver the ultimate tubing experience. It is designed for runs, lift trails, and ski trail connections where maintaining speed and efficiency is essential. The surface incorporates our advanced BulbSet Technology, which enhances acceleration, stability, and directional control, resulting in a fast-gliding experience that remains predictable even under heavy use.
Perfect for start gates, ski resorts, and year-round tubing facilities, PearlSlide combines thrilling speed with reliable handling in all weather conditions. Its durable construction and stable geometry make it a dependable choice for operators who want consistent high performance and a long-lasting return on investment.
PearlSlide is a high-speed surface with upright brush geometry and rounded tips, engineered to deliver fast straight-line glide, reduced drag, and consistent throughput. It incorporates our Pearl BulbSet Technology, a precision grid of rounded pearls that minimizes drag, enhances glide, and improves directional control. The unique bulb geometry provides smooth acceleration, stable performance at high speeds, and controlled braking when required, giving both operators and riders a predictable snow-like feel even under demanding conditions. The surface is made from ultra-durable UV-resistant polymer designed for year-round use and is available in white, with custom colors available on request.
PearlSlide is supplied in modular 3 m² panels that make layout and replacement straightforward. The system adapts easily to common sub-bases such as compacted ground, decking, or platforms. For best results, we recommend using a geotextile or root barrier underlay, as a firm and level base improves long-term stability and prevents bulging. Individual panels can also be replaced when needed, allowing facilities to minimize downtime and keep tubing zones open.
PearlSlide requires only minimal care to maintain reliable performance. Regular brushing and periodic inspections are enough to keep the surface clean and fast. In warm or dry conditions, light lubrication such as misting or an eco slide agent helps preserve consistent glide and reduce wear. With proper upkeep, PearlSlide provides many seasons of dependable recreational use.
PearlSlide avoids snowmaking, grooming and chemical use, cutting water/energy demand and operational CO₂.
Its long service life and low upkeep make it a cost-efficient, lower-footprint option for tubing and leisure zones.

PearlSnow is a next-generation synthetic snow surface engineered to replicate the feel and performance of real snow, without melting or seasonal limits. It can be used worldwide for skiing, snowboarding, tubing, and recreational attractions.
Most traditional dry slopes use stiff brushes or carpet-like mats that can feel harsh, inconsistent, or slow. PearlSnow is engineered differently. It combines a smooth glide surface with controlled grip, giving skiers and snowboarders a natural edge feel and predictable speed, even in warm or wet conditions.
Its unique material blend reduces friction, wear, and maintenance while staying gentle on skis, boards, and riders. The result is a surface that feels more like snow: carve in when you want to, forgiving when you need it.
Yes! PearlSnow is designed from the ground up to be safe, comfortable, and confidence-building for users of all ages.
Unlike older dry-slope systems that could feel harsh or unpredictable, PearlSnow provides a controlled and forgiving glide that allows beginners to focus on technique instead of balance recovery.
Every detail of the surface has been tested to support safe learning:
– Progressive grip and glide: The texture provides reliable edge hold for beginners while maintaining a smooth, natural slide for experienced riders.
– Shock-absorbing base: Optional under-layers reduce impact during falls, especially valuable for ski schools and children’s areas.
– Predictable speed control: Users gain real “snow feel” without needing steep slope angles or huge amounts of lubrication.
Instructors often tell us that children and first-time skiers learn faster on PearlSnow because they build confidence quickly and like to repeat exercises, while also learn how to ride technically correct.
PearlSnow is designed for long-term use in demanding environments. In high-impact zones, surface wear develops gradually over time. Thanks to the modular panel system, these areas can be refreshed individually (efficiently and without downtime) ensuring consistent performance and long service life.
In practice, PearlSnow installations are used for many years. The exact lifespan depends on factors such as activity type, usage intensity and maintenance. Low-impact applications typically achieve very long service life, while high-impact zones benefit from periodic, localized refreshing rather than full replacement.
When stored indoors and appropriately, unused PearlSnow panels retain their material properties. This allows operators to keep spare panels in reserve with confidence, supporting operational continuity.
PearlSnow is developed to perform consistently in a wide range of temperatures and weather conditions, from freezing mountain air to sunny coastal resorts.
In cold or frosty conditions, the surface maintains its flexibility and grip, preventing the “brittle” feel common in older plastics.
In warm or dry weather, glide speed can increase slightly on steep slopes or decrease on flat zones, but this can easily be fine-tuned with adjusted slope angles or a light application of eco slide agent.
The material is UV-stabilized, water-draining, and non-slip so it stays durable and predictable, even after years of outdoor exposure.
In short: PearlSnow adapts to your environment instead of the other way around.
