The Brits and Hintertux

It has been an eventful weekend , with the indoor Brits up in Manchester on Saturday . Will rode really well on the day and after 5 hours riding he came away with a bronze medal for coming 3rd overall to friend and fellow  MK snozone rider Jake Binnee's,  well deserved  1st and Scott Walshes 2nd in the men's category .  Really proud of Will as always.

Then it was a quick turnaround to get his snowboard gear dry and packed ready for heading out to Hintertux , Austria today to do some snowboarding with the Park and Pipe crew. Thanks to the guys at TSA for sorting out some awesome merino wool thermals for Will to take away with him so he doesn't get cold out there in the mountains .

Winter's Coming.......

Once again I've left it too long between posts, but to be fair,not a lot snowboarding has been happening. Apart from a great night  last week at Will's home dome when Halldor Helgason and Tor Lundstrom came for the VonZipper night. It was a really great atmosphere as snowboarders came from far and wide and made it a great night for Will and the rest of the MK riders.

So there is some exciting times for Will coming up in the next month or so, He's heading out to Hintertux glacier very soon to train with the Park and Pipe Academy and the Main GB team, and  yesterday he filmed a little interview to appear on the TSA website which will appear really soon  . Plus  there are more other interesting opportunities developing. Its amazing what snowboarding is bringing to Will.
