Orange AIM Series British Quarterpipe ChampionshipOrange AIM Series brings UK's freestyle elite to the Metro Ski & Snowboard Show![]() UK’s snowboard and freeski elite will all be under one roof, throwing down some tight freestyle action to a crowd of thousands, as the Orange AIM Series presents the British Quarterpipe Championships at this year’s Metro Ski and Snowboard Show, London, on the 20th October, with the two most talented snowboarders provided entry into one of the highest ranking events on the World Snowboard Tour, The O’Neill Evolution. The invitational contest at the London show will see 12 of Britain’s top snowboarders and 9 skiers, among them, British Champions and Olympians, pull out all the stops to go higher, bigger and better in the race for the new, hotly contested British Quarterpipe Championship title and the opportunity to go on and compete on the World snowboard stage. Three snowboarders and three skiers have been selected to compete in the event from the Orange AIM Series pre qualification Quarterpipe contest held in Warmwell, and three snowboarders and two skiers have been awarded wild card places by the AIM Series organisers and Media alike, enabling the collective crème de la crème of UK’s best to compete under one Roof.
