Okay, all sorted. It's back down to a group of 2 and there's an extra specific exclusion been added to say you're not covered if off piste alone.
The new policy document is available for download at www.snowboardclub.co.uk/insurance (see page 19).
The revised terms cover any policy brought since 1st January 2011 for any trip you have not yet started.
Happy to help! |

First off, apologies for reviving this thread!
I'm trying to answer a question thats been raised elsewhere where I've recommended this policy. I've had a search through the forum and read the policy document and cant see anywhere where this specific question is covered off, so rather than start another Insurance thread thought I'd ask here as its a similar (off piste) theme.
In the policy, its states that you are covered off piste:
"with a qualified instructor or in a group of not less than 2 persons in possession of working communications or portable telephone. No cover for riding off-piste alone or winter sports activities against local authority advice."
And the question raised:
Local Authority Advice would generally state that to go off piste you should have a shovel, probe and transceiver. Thats fine and perfectly reasonable for what we'd all consider proper off piste.
However, between runs (in the trees for example) is technically off piste (though in North America generally "in bounds"). Would the SCUK insurance company wriggle out of a claim in that instance if you didn't have the avy kit on you?
Basically, does our policy expect you to have full avy kit if you break your leg in the 10 feet of "off piste" between runs if the local authority recommends it "off piste"? |
