As the home to some of UK’s snowboard pioneers such as Steve Bailey, Danny Wheeler and Stu Brass, Ski Rossendale has a thriving freestyle scene. More recent stars gunning for a National title and looking to secure their names in the Rossendale hall of fame include 2005 British Artificial Snowboardcross Champion, Mollie Percival, 2006 Orange AIM Series Rail Jam Champ Colum Mytton and rising freeskier star, Joe Tomlinson. Best described as a 21st century hybrid of snowboarding and motocross, the snowboard / skiercross championships will see competitors race against the clock and each other in heats of four until the fastest riders/skiers are left victorious. A more relaxed Big Air Jam will follow with riders' expressing individual style and tricks over the 8m jump.
