Surf, Snowboard, and Skate in the Heart of Southeast Asia at TRIFECTA Singapore


Wazzup Pilipinas!?



Snowboarding and surfing in tropical Singapore will soon be a reality in the heart of the city. TRIFECTA by The Ride Side (TRIFECTA) will be Asia’s first snow, surf, and skate attraction opening in Singapore from 28 October 2023. Beginners and seasoned riders from the region will be able to learn and train in Singapore for winter sports and surfing, without travelling longer distances abroad.

TRIFECTA aims to make snowboarding, skiing, and surfing more accessible by introducing a lineup of beginner and kids-friendly programmes and events where people can learn in a safe, comfortable, and controlled environment. For experienced skiers, snowboarders, and surfers, TRIFECTA offers a space for community and training during the off season, utilising technology to mimic conditions on ocean waves and ski slopes.

While Singapore does not have ski resorts and surf breaks, TRIFECTA will now have access to its own version of mountains and waves in Singapore’s most famous shopping strip: Orchard Road. TRIFECTA is inspired by the hallowed concept in the world of adventure sports when snowboarding, surfing, and skateboarding are completed in one day — a feat that requires both summer and winter conditions in the same place at the same time, that is now made possible in tropical Singapore. With its multi-dimensional and immersive experience, the opening of TRIFECTA will bolster the transformation at Orchard Road and strengthen its position as a must-visit lifestyle destination.




 

Conceptualised and developed by home-grown adventure travel company, The Ride Side, TRIFECTA covers 49,611 square feet - approximately the size of four Olympic swimming pools - in Somerset Road, with a unique open public layout that encourages spectatorship and interactions among visitors. TRIFECTA is free to access for all members of the public who wish to be spectators of the various sports or to dine in. Those who wish to try the activities can easily purchase flexible tickets and memberships. TRIFECTA will operate from 7am to 12 midnight daily.

“Despite the growing interest in board sports in Asia, we realised there weren’t enough spaces at home that allowed people to discover, watch, and learn. At TRIFECTA by The Ride Side, we welcome all who are interested in board sports to take that first step with us, and for all enthusiasts to continue to hone their skills and share their experiences with the greater community,” said Daphne Goh, co-founder of The Ride Side.

With hybrid working becoming a more regular arrangement, travellers are choosing to take flexcations to holiday and work in one destination over longer periods of time. With TRIFECTA’s multi-purpose space, travellers can now continue to practise their sport and achieve their wellness goals while making the most of their long-term holidays in Singapore and Southeast Asia.

Facilities will include the latest technology in surf and snow simulators to provide visitors with an unrivalled experience of being able to do extreme sports in Orchard Road. The physical experience is also enhanced with a mobile app, where visitors and users alike can connect with others in the community, book sessions and classes, track training schedules and conduct cashless in-app payments with rewards.Snowboard: Simulator machines in the snow arena are powered by the first Virtual Reality (VR) ski simulator in Asia, with best-in-class speed simulation and directional movements to mimic the natural mountain terrain. A “Freestyle” area, fitted with airbags and dry slopes, will also allow guests to try popular snowboard tricks such as jumps and backflips in a safe environment. Each session can accommodate six people per simulator per hour.

Surf: The arena will incorporate Citywave, the world’s leading technology in deep water wave pool, for an endless surf experience. It will be Asia’s largest standing wave pool at 10m wide, generating 1.5m high waves, the deepest in Singapore. Guests will be able to use surfboards with fins in this Olympic-size pool for the first time in Singapore. Each session can accommodate 12 people per hour.

Skate: Experience the world’s first hybrid skate bowl designed for skateboarding and surfskating. Designed by skaters from Bali’s popular community skate sports such as Pretty Poison and Amplitude Skate Park, the skate bowl will be free for all to use and was built to complement the Somerset Skate Park next door, and add to the youthful energy and vibrancy of the Somerset belt in Orchard Road. Lessons are available through bookings with TRIFECTA.




Brand New Dining Concept

Supplementing the TRIFECTA experience is Butter, an exclusive collaborative kitchen by Singapore cult-favourite, Two Men Bagel House, and TRIFECTA. Butter will be serving up all-day breakfast, lunch, and dinner menus which revolve around cosy favourites — Two Men’s signature bagels, baked goods such as croissants, family-friendly pancakes, hearty grain bowls, as well as beers, coffees, desserts, and more.

Diners can also look forward to exclusive menu items at this 70-seater outlet or choose take-out and have their meals while being spectators to all the action in the surf and snow arenas. Expect the same Two Men attitude, packed with a ton of Butter flavour.
