Summer Powder Session

If you don't fancy the odds of a scorching British summer, then may we suggest heading to other side of the planet for some guaranteed snow. Southern Snowriders claim to offer the most extensive snow trips in New Zealand and with such cheap airfares available at the moment it may be very affordable... SCUK discount applies.

British Snow Tour demo test

The 2008 British Snow Tour presented by Quiksilver, Trespass and Animal prepares to get its shred on this summer. If competing or spectating isn't your bag, then perhaps K2, Ride and DC can interest you in a cheeky free demo? Take that tasty new stick that you've been eyeing up all winter for a quick spin... because you're worth it!

China's indoor park is anything but Mellow

Well you have to give to it to the Chinese; they certainly know how to build a fun-park of monumental proportions. The Country's snowboarding landscape was re-shaped forever as Burton and Mellow Constructions unveiled their new indoor park just outside of Beijing earlier this week... come on the UK... we're ready when you are.

FBBB Braehead this Saturday

This Saturday 21st June, SNO!zone, Braehead kicks-off the For Boarders By Boarders summer events. A 5 stop Tour of relaxed jam session comps held at all 3 SNO!zone venues, The Snowdome and Bromley dryslope. Rock up, throw down and clear off with heaps of spot prizes. And pack you're dancing shoes... we've heard there's a disco!

Freestyle Concept summer camps

Freestyle Concept has teamed up with SCUK to offer a 5% discount for either of their two new camps at Saas Fee starting on 9th and 16th August. Camp coaches include UK riders Seb Kern and Mike Austin plus European rippers Anton 'Tonton' Holland and Morgan Le Faucheur. Whatever happens, you'll certainly get a qualification in being dope.

Laax builds new base village

Those that attended The BRITS this year will have noticed that the beautiful Swiss resort of Laax had morphed itself into a huge building site. But fear not, Swiss efficiency is at work, and the transformation to stunning new base development, 'rocksresort', is well on the road to completion. Thank god for a choice of new restaurants we hear you cry.

SCUK INSURANCE with tgic

Some things are important. Family, friends, trees, snow and sporks. We think a decent winter sports insurance policy site right up there too, so we spent a long time putting together a policy we'd be proud to sell and recommend to our friends, family and spoon/fork hybrids. We call it the "SCUK Insurance with tgic", because we have to, but you can think of it as a friend when you're in need.

An industry beating £800 single item limit. Unguided off-piste and freestyle covered by default. No requirement to wear a leash. Full liability cover and even a few quid in your pocket if you get mugged! Look at other policies and do the comparison.

SCUK can now offer their legendary insurance, but with sun, sea and sand included. All the good things from the winter policy, but with no dangerous winter sports included, we can slash premiums.

SCUK Membership

Upon joining SCUK for only £30, members are showered with gifts including free/discounted sessions at all three SNO!zones, Tamworth SnowDome and Manchester's Chill Factor^e, plus a selection of goodies from those shown opposite amounting to over £100.

Snowboard Club UK's membership is really rather good. It doesn't cost much, brings you good things and saves you lots of money. The site's pretty cool too and a great waste of time when the boss ain't looking.

£30 too much? Then take the light option for just £15.
