Why Ain' you Jibbin Freestyle Course

Well what a fantastic week Will had. Lots of fun doing what he loves best in the glorious resort of Pila just above the Aosta Valley in Italy. He quickly made friends with fellow juniour  snowboarders and thrived under the expert training given by Steve Addicott and Kate Foster.

The snowboard park was amazing giving them all access to some fantastic features & some much needed kicker training given that Will does'nt really get as much  access as he's like to large kickers in the snowdomes.

Road trip to Italy...

Will is on his way to Italy for another fantastic week of snowboard training with Steve Addicott. He is so excited and has all these tricks he wants to learn.So we will have to see how it all goes for him. If its anything like the last camp he will come away with a tonne of confidence and a bag of new tricks . Watch this space for new pictures and videos. It's going to be a fun week for Wills little brother who is going to have his first go at snowboarding at the tender age of 4.

Some brilliants news

Well it's been a very exciting time since our last blog . Will's had some amazing feedback about his riding  all his hard work has paid off in some very positive ways.

Firstly the little man has been accepted into the GB Junior Freestyle Snowboarding team, which is perfect to help him achieve his very big ambitions. He will be joining the rest of the team on some amazing training camps both here in the UK and Europe ,and he will have essential support and advice from some of the best people in Britain.

Then last night at the Freestyle night in Snozone milton-keynes , Will learn't that he had been made part of their development team. This means he gets discounted fees on the slope , so gets to spend more time doing what he loves and represents the Snozone wherever he competes in the future. It really is a win ,win relationship because without his local slope. his riding would'nt have gotten to the level he is.

And finally he's had some lovely comments from the guys at the The Riders Lounge who have been getting great feedback about Will riding his fantastic little Capita Microscope snowboard and Union bindings. We have no doubt that having the right equipment has definitely helped his massive progress these last few months.
