CROSS WOODS
at Speikboden

Italy's first forest slide park relies on WEAD technology

Nestled in the unspoiled nature of the Ahrntal Valley, a truly unique attraction awaits adventurers: the “CROSS WOODS” forest slide park at Speikboden is the first and only project of its kind in Italy. To make the experience among the treetops even more thrilling, WEAD has equipped one of the dry slides with state-of-the-art competition technology.

Gamification in harmony with nature

Thanks to the integration of our systems, the wild ride through the forest becomes a measurable challenge:

Our sensors monitor access and measure the speed of the riders down to the millisecond. This turns a simple run into a competitive race against the clock.

Immediately after exiting the tube, the result is displayed on a durable, weather-resistant scoreboard. This provides instant feedback and a huge incentive to beat your own record.

Rugged technology for extreme conditions

Since the forest slide park is located in alpine terrain, this is where the unique strengths of WEAD hardware really shine: Our systems are extremely weather-resistant and optimized for outdoor use, ensuring reliable, long-term performance even under changing weather conditions.
