Dry slope
Kendal · Cumbria · UK
The Lake District’s premier technical race training slope in Kendal, featuring an 80m floodlit Dendix hill and national slalom pedigree.
Perched above the market town of Kendal at the gateway to the Lake District, this member-managed ski club delivers high-caliber slalom coaching despite its compact 80-metre footprint. The slope is shaped with a brisk, demanding gradient and crisp water lubrication, serving as an intensive technical laboratory where Cumbrian racers refine rapid gate reactions and short-radius carving techniques before heading to the Alps.
