History

The Ski Club of Ireland was founded in 1963 and a few years later ran its first ski slope in Knockrabo in Goatstown, south County Dublin.[1]

In the mid-1970s the club moved from Goatstown to its present location close to Kilternan.

Facilities

The ski club has four ski slopes: a main slope (180 meters long), an intermediate slope (130 meters long) and two nursery slopes. The slopes' surfaces are covered in Dendix, a by-product of brush manufacturing which is similar to a short haired brush with the bristles sticking upwards. Dendix is manufactured in Chepstow in the United Kingdom; however, it can be found on slopes throughout the world.[2] A water misting system lubricates the main and intermediate slopes, which helps increase speed and reduce friction.

The ski club has a clubhouse located beside the slopes, which houses an office and equipment dispensing area. Rental equipment is included in the price of class tickets or practice passes.[citation needed]

Ski school

The club offers ski lessons for all abilities. Instructors in the ski school include IASI-qualified instructors. Most of the instructors' qualifications have been obtained through the Irish Association of Snow sports Instructors (IASI)[3] or the British Association of Snow sports Instructors (BASI). There are, however, a few native Austrian, German, and Spanish skiers among the instructors.[citation needed]

The Ski School runs clinics on Wednesday and Friday nights for more advanced skiers. These clinics focus on high-end skiing and adult race training, including slalom and GS race courses through gates.[citation needed] One-day courses are also run on Saturdays through the ski season.[citation needed]

There is a snowboarding school on Tuesday and Thursday nights, with a Sunday evening jam for boarders only.[citation needed]
