What do you mean, you can’t hurtle down the slopes in your sitting room? If we say it’s possible, it’s possible! In fact, the Pro-Idee company has just launched on the market an ultra-sophisticated ski simulator, which lets you ski in front of the TV without even having to change into a ski suit. Isn’t technology wonderful?
How does it work?
To begin with, and we really shouldn’t need to tell you this: if you want to get the slightest impression of being in the mountains, you’ll need a fairly large screen. If your screen isn’t large enough, you might as well put on your ski boots and stand on your bed in front of a poster of the mountains, for all the sensations you will get. The Pro-Idee simulator is definitely not the nth Wii game compatible with Wiifit! No, it is the crème-de-la-crème simulator, designed both for amateurs such as you and professionals, such as Luc Alphand or Jean-Pierre Vidal! It offers you no less than 32 levels, recapturing perfectly the most famous descents on the planet. Vibration, gradients, bends – all the skiing sensations are there!
Why go crazy about it?
There are a thousand reasons! Seriously though, have you never dreamed of hurtling down the slopes in pajamas? You can see yourself calling to your friends at the end of class: “not this evening, I’ve got to go skiing!” No need to find complicated chat-up lines, a simple “come to my place, we’ll go skiing” will have people queuing up for your attentions! There is only hitch in sight: your new toy will cost you a cool 1,649 dollars. At that price you might as well get the bonus of real snow.
