While Toronto is not recognized as a skier’s city, “The 6” is about to get its very own indoor ski center starting in late June. The new facility will be home to the Axis Freestyle Academy and so far construction is approximately 50% complete reports blogTO.
The ski center will be located near the Vaughan Mills outlet mall and includes a dry-slope with a focus on freestyle progression. Rails, ramps, and other features will be available for skiers and riders to hone their skills. Also, features will be movable, so beginners will have room to learn as well.
