Forecast and webcams

Before you go

Forecasts often disagree. When Windguru, ALADIN and Windy agree, it is worth going.

Under the snow

Surface and skis

Riders have not described the ground under the snow. Early in the season and after a thaw, expect things to stick out.

Rule of thumb: the smoother the ground, the less snow you need. On a mown meadow riders usually start from about 20 to 30 cm; on stubble, ploughed fields or dwarf pine you need much more.

Bring rock skis

For your first sessions, early in the season and anywhere the snow is thin, use old skis (“rock skis”) or an old snowboard. A stone hidden just under the snow can cut the base of new skis on the very first run.

Tips for this spot

  • On hills the wind is stronger and gustier than the forecast says. Behind a forest it breaks and swirls, so launch well away from trees.
  • Wind and frost add up: at −5 °C and 20 knots (10 m/s) it feels like about −14 °C. Goggles, a balaclava and spare gloves.
  • Frozen snow is hard: a helmet and back protector are worth it even on a flat plateau.

In riders' own words
  • „Jezditelné snad všechny směry, když se nejezdí zrovna někde v závětří za vesnicí nebo lesem.“
  • „Poměrně rozlehlá plocha v okolí nepřehlédnutelného vysílače v blízkosti Brna.“
  • „Parkovat se dá u příjezdu k vysílači, nebo přilehlých venicích, dle směru větru.“
  • „když se nejezdí zrovna někde v závětří za vesnicí nebo lesem.“
  • „Nadmořská výška 600mnm. Jezditelné snad všechny směry, když se nejezdí zrovna někde v závětří za vesnicí nebo lesem. Vítr bývá velice stabilní.“
