How is it being used, recreationally
for tourists, or serious training for athletes?
Both.
How does it work?
The AFM has an outer air bag inflated for a soft landing, and an inner bag
inflated more firmly. Two motors run during use to keep the two bags
inflated. You will receive 2 electric motors and 2 gasoline motors, so you
have a choice of power source.
How big is the AFM?
The AFM is huge at 66 feet long and 40 feet wide. (20x12m)
We also have a new smaller, lighter, less expensive model , the FUN Model,
at 50 feet by 30 feet (15 x 9 meters.)
Can it be used year round?
Yes it
can be used all year round. It is suitable for skates and bikes in warm
weather and snowboards and skis. If you want to use it for
skiers/snowboarders in the summer you can use a ramp made of wood covered
with Snowflex.
What kind of manpower and maintenance
does it need?
It
needs at least 6 to 8 people to install or remove it. It must be rolled up
when it snows or there is wind. When it snows, snow must be cleared from
the mat surface. It needs one person to supervise when in use. When not in
use, it must be stored.
What if it gets a leak?
The toughness and thickness of the PVC material make it unlikely to leak.
Top surface thickness is 2700 grams/m2, making it very tough and
snowboard blade-proof. In the unlikely circumstance that it does, a patch kit of
ordinary patching materials is included.
How cold a temperature can the AFM withstand?
Temperatures down to minus 22 degrees Fahrenheit.
Will it blow away?
You will anchor it to the snow with snow nails. It is best to place the AFM
in a location sheltered from the wind if possible. Deflate the mat at the
end of the day. It can be folded over flat on the snow and covered with the
top sheet that is included. It takes about 20 minutes to re-inflate the next
day.
What if we get a different sponsor after we’ve printed our old sponsor on
the bag?
The top landing sheet of the bag is removable and can be replaced with
another sheet, with different info printed on it.
How long will it take to pay for itself?
At the indoor snowdome in Madrid, Spain where the AFM was set up, 150
snowboarders
paid 20 €uro each for unlimited jumps on a weekend day. That is 6000€ per
weekend, or 24000€ per month. At that rate the AFM will more than pay for itself in 5
weekends of use.
How many jumps can we fit in per hour?
20 to 30 jumps per hour if riders drop every 2 to 3 minutes.
How does a rider get off the AFM after a jump?
Once the user lands, the mat absorbs the shock and re-inflates quickly so
the user slides to either side easily. Since there is a second chamber
underneath s/he actually ends up sitting down on it before s/he exits. The
surface is slippery, so one can just slide off like in a playground.
How much does it cost to ship?
The price includes shipping from Europe to your location.
How long does it take to deliver?
6 to 8 weeks.
