We now have the details for the Southern Region Freestyle session on Sunday the 15th November. Unfortunately it is being run in the morning from 10:00 until 13:30 so even for the first group it will be a bit of a rush to make it. The session will cost £10 and this is payable on the day. The schedule is as follows:-
09:30 arrive to ride at 10:00
12:00 Lunch
12:45 Meeting
13:30 Finish
The following details on the day have been provided by Paul Webb:-
10:00 2hrs riding on a range of kickers, boxes & kickers with coaches for BEGINNER AND EXPERT alike. We will also be looking at general sliding techniques including switch riding.
This is open to skiers & boarders alike & any standard, provided they have good solid intermediate sliding skills; slope rules are that helmets are worn for all freestyle activities as well as the normal recommendation for gloves & long sleeves to protect skin from grazes.
We do have a small range of club owned freestyle skis, helmets, back protectors available for session hire at £5 for skis, £2.50 protection per item. Sorry no boards available & no John Nike hire boards or skis can be used for freestyle. The hire kit will be allocated on a first come first served basis – it you need to hire please let us know your requirements in advance so we can try to reserve something suitable.
The slope is quite abrasive so we advise skis to be pre-waxed, we can offer a limited amount of on site waxing at £2 per pair of skis.
We will also have small sticks of rub on/iron wax to buy at £1.50 per stick.
There are green mats around the slope that are coated in silicon which helps protect skis and boards too.
12:00 Lunch, voucher will be issued to be exchanged in site café for burger/hotdog & a drink.
12:45 Meeting to explain how the Southern Region Squad will be formed , its purpose, how to be selected , club membership , insurance , pathway to success.
13:30 Finish.
