Join me for a recreational session (whether skis or board) on the snow at Xscape. You don't need to be good (I'm not) but to be on the slope they do require that you know the basics i.e can use the button lift and control your speed/direction.
The price includes ski/poles/boots or snowboards/boots. We'll meet at the Sno!Zone check-in desk at 7:15pm (for 8pm slope time) to allow plenty of time to be kitted out with boots and equipment. Afterwards you can explain how you do your amazing stunts over a drink!!
Event extended to Northants IVC.
