Post subject:  Winter Sports - Oh yes
Been meaning to post this for a while as I know some of you guys are keen skiers or snowboarders.

I am an official 'cant get enough' snowboarder, looking forward to this season :D :D :D :D

So any others out there who are as passionate about it?

Anyone keen on a pre season snow session at Hemel / Milton keynes in a few months, should be fun as always better with others , they have a bar/ snack bars (and shopping at MK :lol: ) at these places too for the significant others :D :D :D :D

Envious, Sounds epic , was it a season?, place of legends as far as I have read and heard from those that have been there. Defo on my list of places to visit, recent history makes it a bit worrying thou.

I need to go to make sure I can still ride! Hemel has a 2 for 1 on recreational passes atm.

When are people thinking?

Hemel is probably closer for everyone and the parking is better and free.

Oooh oooh me me! Didn't go last year, but would love to strap the board on again and try a few jumps maybe?

I agree Greg -Hemel gets my vote - better artificial snow and they do Park nights on Friday nights still I believe. Either way, time / day should be decided with majority vote :-)

I was thinking mid October ?

Glad others are keen :clap: Thinking about mid October, unsure if people want weekend or mid week evening session (majority gets the decider!). I am flexible so if anyone is super keen and has a date preference start the ball rolling :-) I am happy to do either.

Fridays are full freestyle from 6.30 onwards,park rebuild break and then then onwards to 11 pm whilst Thursday being a single line choice with remainder of slopes open apparrently, would imagine this format will carry on into October. If Sat is best for everyone then happy for that too

Just a bump - any preference on Mid October dates anyone?? (not 21st/ 22nd as got DH plans now :D ) Happy to keep it to a Saturday if people put off by the features

Yep I'm still keen.

I am pretty sure you can get a discount if there is 10 or more going. I will have to check. If so i am sure i can get a couple of peeps to come down.

I think a Friday night would be pretty cool. I would also be interested in the thursday night freestyle lessons too.

I'm pretty easy really. just let me know when and ill be there.

Si.
