Our Bob Slide at Kolmården Wildlife Park

The Kolmården Wildlife Park in Sweden wanted to provide more value to their visitor experience. They were looking for an activity that both parents and kids could enjoy together as a family. Our Bob Slide turned out to be a great fit for the park as it was a very well-received event during the winter months, especially those days when it didn’t snow. Yes, even in Sweden, that’s possible!

 

 

Why choose the Glice Bob Slide over a conventional bobsled track?

There is no need to go in-depth about our changing climate and how less snow covers the ground each year, if even any. We are seeing the difference and miss those days when we would take our sled on a winter day and go find the nearest hill. Synthetic ice is here to make all these experiences accessible (again) for everyone around the globe.

Our efforts started with creating a genuine alternative for athletes to practice on when the refrigerated ice rinks closed. Now, having developed the perfect formula, we enjoy developing new ideas. And turning our Eco Ice tiles into a whole bobsled track was one of them. It uses the same panels made from polymer with embedded lubricants but with a unique sledding surface, so the sliding fun is guaranteed!

We also care for our planet and do our best to minimize our impact as a company. This is why we plant a tree with our partner Eden Reforestation Projects for every panel produced.

Glice Slapshot Station

Our Slapshot Station provides a fun activity that is entertaining for everyone and very useful for professional athletes. It’s the ultimate test of power, accuracy, and pure hockey prowess. Whether a seasoned pro or a first-time newbie, the rush of launching a puck at lightning speed toward our target while being cheered on by friends and family is unbeatable. Our scoreboard and radar system will ensure that every shot is measured and counted! The highly resistant Glice leisure boards with polycarbonate protection make the fun even safer. 

So don’t wait any longer: suit up, grab a stick, and hit the ice!

Eisstock

Family playing Eisstock

This fun game, known as Eisstock, is the German version of curling. It’s played by sliding a large wooden “stock” (kind of like a flat-bottomed curling stone) down a slippery lane toward a target. And let’s not forget the best part – a warming cup of hot chocolate or glühwein usually accompanies it. 

While we can’t provide you the hot chocolate, we offer Eisstock lanes with a wide range of equipment to enjoy with friends and family. So grab some friends, lace up your skates, and unleash your inner Olympian!
