Tubing at Sunridge (opens December 22)
Snow tubing is the best thing to happen to winter and Sunridge has the only Snow
Tubing Park around. With a dedicated tubing lift (so you don't have to walk up the
hill), three groomed chutes down one of our main hills, and special tubes provided
by us, you won't find a better outdoor winter activity.
Tubing tickets are for specific two-hour
time periods only and a limited number of tickets are available for each two-hour
period. The two-hour time periods are; from 12noon until 2pm or 2pm until 4pm on
weekends and holidays, and from 5pm until 7pm or 7pm until 9pm on Friday evening
(except during the Christmas break).
You can buy your tube tickets online to guarantee
space for you or for your group. If you don't wish to buy your tickets online,
you
may of
course stop by the ski area to buy your tickets but keep in mind that tubing often
sells out and we can't guarantee a spot for you if you don't buy your tickets in
advance.
You can also rent the tube park for two hours for a private tubing party
for your
group. The tube park is available for rent on Monday through Thursday between 6pm
and 8pm, and on the weekends between 10am and noon. The cost is $600 for the two
hours. Just call us at 780-449-6555 for more information.
When the Tubing Park is busy, we normally have more people than
tubes. When this is the case, the tubers coming up off the tube lift must hand
their tubes to the first person in line and then go to the back of the line to wait
for another tube. We find that this system is safer than providing each person with
their own tube since even if you have your own tube, you would still be waiting
in line to go down the chutes. If you have any questions in this regards, please
stop by the office.
- First, select the month and the time period
that you want
to go
tubing. Only available time periods are shown. If the time period that you wish
to go tubing is not shown in the list, then it is either full or not available.
Once you have selected a month, you have 3 minutes to complete and pay for
the booking.
- Then, enter the number of tube tickets for individuals that you
wish to book and
remember that everyone must be at least 4 ft tall AND 7 years old to go tubing.
Helmets can also be rented at this time. If your group has 10 or more people, the cost per person is $18.
- Be sure to enter your cell phone number so we can text the tube
booking transaction
number to you, and
then click the Pay button to pay for your booking (using PayPal).
You will also receive an email with the tube booking transaction number and a PDF
copy
of your receipt.
- On the day of your booking, please arrive at Sunridge about 10-15 minutes
before your scheduled two-hour period, stop by reception and show
us either a printout of the email or the text on your smartphone. We'll print
your
tube tickets and you are on your way. You don't have to fill out any forms (except
sign a rental waiver if you are renting helmets).
