Chatham this weekend... then on to Norfolk!

The British Snowboard and Freeski Tour set off from Soul Sports HQ last night on route for Chatham for the Animal Slopestyle Championships this weekend. Once that's over with, it'll be on to Norfolk to continue the tour with the Trespass Snowboard / Skiercross Championships on 22 & 23 September.



Norfolk Ski Club, which is a new venue on the 2007 British Snow Tour, will see some high-speed action when over 100 of the UK’s top snowboarders and freeskiers don helmets and sharpen their edges for the Trespass Snowboard and Skiercross Championships. Competitors will race in heats of four down a challenging course that includes bumps, jumps and tight banked turns, pushing reactions and control to the max. Riders will be reaching heights of a double decker bus, during the warm up Big Air Jam, with local Norwich snowboarder James Thorne and freeskier Tom Coe leading the way. Method Snow School will be on hand to offer some freestyle coaching tips, plus product testing from Salomon, Ride, K2 and Faction Ski’s will be up for grabs. Competition is open to all abilities and you can now pre register online, sign up for one of the FREE beginner lessons available, check out timings and get more information from britishsnowtour.com (click the heading).
