Ski Science

ski scienceHere at SCOPE we're prepared to go to all kinds of climactic extremes to bring you science. Even sub-zero! So we decided to send Dr Rob to the snow!

But what is snow? How do you stay upright as you carve down the slopes? And what's the difference between a snow plough and a parallel turn? Join Dr Rob as he puts on his thermals and SCOPES out all the science behind skiing! As once again the ordinary becomes extraordinary, 'under the SCOPE'.
