I'm looking at starting to snowboard, something i've never tried before.
I'm over an hour away from either site, but without going to a John Nike centre thought it may be softer to land on real snow, as opposed to velcro.
Anyway, my point:
Which of these sites would you choose if it were you, There isn't a massive cost or distance difference so purely down to facilities quality of snow / quality of teaching?
Thanks in advance. |

Hemel 1000 times over, newer, brighter, less run down, better snow, friendlier staff.

| I'd say to learn to go to MK, the tow rope is a killer at Hemel, it's much easier on the travelator at MK. |
