Golf is one of the only sports that can be realistically simulated indoors.
Golf is also one of the only sports where even severe lag has no effect on the accuracy of the play - just the viewing experience. Unlike FPS games in the cloud which become unplayable with even modest lag.
The golf simulation technology landscape today is pre-cloud. People running their own gaming computers with complex lash ups of open source software to connect their launch monitors. All pretty prohibitive to the stereotypical older tech-averse golf player.
Bought season passes for me and 3 of my kids this year, we’ll ski as much as possible. Have multiple pairs of skis myself. Resorts are always busy and 50/50 ski/snowboard.
Is it possible you have first party cookies disabled? On your first visit we need to run some JS (apparently the only way to get the user timezone). We store that in your session and then redirect you so we can show availability in your timezone. If first party cookies are disabled then there will be no session and the page will loop. (Open to suggestions on better TZ handling - other than rewriting as an SPA :)
When you loop at least set a query string counter and stop after 3 times. You can then display a note to the user that they need to enable first party cookies.
The first time loading the page, the white bar holding the menu flashes 2cm lower then higher for a few seconds (as elements load). It doesn't flash afterwards. Consider moving something to the footer, so the user doesn't see the loading/flashing.
