Its been a busy Summer Holidays for Will . Just a few days after coming home from the Park and Pipe trip to Saas Fee.Will was off to America to take part in session 6 of the the High Cascade Snowboard Camp in Oregon.

We had a couple of days sight seeing in Seattle before heading down to Government Camp in Oregan.Although the snow was really poor Will had a great time riding with fellow HCSC riders from all over America.As well as making a load of new friends Will rode with Chris Grenier and Scott Stevens as the signature session riders, as was featured in a little instagram edit by Scott Stevens. Then after a week of rad riding and skateboarding (mainly by Will) we headed back to Seattle. It was there that Will met up with Capita Snowboards Owner Blue Montgomery, for a tour of the Capita base in Seattle and got a sneaky peak at the cool new 2017 board designs. Will came home gifted with a great new Scott Stevens skateboard deck and armful of Capita tshirts and we were both sad to say goodbye to the west coast of America. Hopefully we'll be back next summer.
Then when we got home there was a great Edit ofWill and fellow Park and Pipe rider Scott Walsh released by the Park and Pipe Crew.
Will was really lucky that school allowed him to have time off to join in with the Capita Defenders of Awesome tour. He's spent time both riding and hanging out with US Professional snowboarders Scott Stevens, Brandon Cocard, Dustin Craven and Phil Jacques as they toured the country visiting Tamworth Snowdome , SnowFactor in Glasgow, Chillfactor in Manchester and topped it very nicely in Will's home dome of Milton Keynes Snozone with his very own signature park night. The US pro's were lovely with our Will , really taking time to get to know him as he can be a little quiet. They were also very complimentary of the standard of Will's riding. .

At his signature park night at MK Snowzone , Will had designed a super technical park ,was riding hard and having a great time, so much so he snapped his snowboard towards the end of the night! Thankfully the lovely guys at Capita are sending him a new board asap so he can go shredding again this week.
