Any chance of a student discount on membership? Sorry for being cheap!
Btw, the website is looking great.

I would totally recommend the bataleon boards. I tried a Goliath 161 at Milton Keynes the other day and I loved it. I've tried quite a few boards that said they had something new and exciting about them, but this was the first time I really noticed.

It was really smooth to ride around, dead poppy, held the edge well and was so easy to butter around.

I'm saving up for one now!

I'm just curious to know if you are covered to go offpiste with the SCUK insurance? It mentions it is covered if you go offpiste where the resort classes it as "safe". So does that mean if you go down a slope which has avalanche warning then you're not covered?

Do this offpiste route have to been marked on the mountain ski map?

Also do you have to go with "guides" as most of the insurance companies stated.

Any help would be great thanks.

this seems a relevant thread ish without making a new one. Which camera is best for using on the slopes? ive been looking at DSLR etc but want to know if anyone has experience using them in the snow etc. Ive looked at a few reviews but none say if they are any good witht he high light levels that are in the snow, most go on about low light levels which really dont concern me as i will mainly be using it for sports shots. So basically, im looking for a camera that has a high fps rate, good pic quality and good in the high light conditions of snow anysuggestions? oh and as cheap as possible, i found one that seemed perfect but for nearly £3K is waaaaayy out of my price range lol

Adidas Goggles rock! great vision and double spherical lens thingy means they don't steam up too bad even when your not moving.

Hello people,

just purchased my first board, a wild duck board? any good??

i think it also depends on what time of year you are going and what's on offer. I've been Banff a few times, great place, especially the hot springs. If you go canada you have to go the pool. It's gorgeous, escpecially winter time!!

Mine was proper noobish!!

Risoul in france with the other half for new year cant wait!! Never been there before.

I think your right mcdub, but don't drive to Ski Rossendale expecting the shop to be open. As I found out its shut until 'Autumn'

Nice an Vague

I really like Risoul, when did you go that time?

I agree with Mini (for a change!)
There's a good bunch of people that ride on a Tuesday night and they all hang out for chats afterwards which is always good for a laugh. Mixed skill too so people there to help out if you want advice etc etc. Good at the mo as there's a few bits of freestyle out all the time.
Failing that, Thursday night is freestyle night! Freestyle fun!
