Junior Snowboarding Lessons at Tamworth Snowdome

Family Ski Trip to Châtel
Our first visit to Châtel. Just a stones throw from the Swiss border. After the heaviest snow falls in Bath that I can ever remember we were lucky to make it to France at all!
The Big Bang Snowboard Show at Tamworth
The annual Big Bang Show by TSA was held over the weekend of the 14 & 15th of October at the Tamworth SnowDome. It is a fab opportunity to demo the new seasons boards as well as doing some coaching sessions for FREE!
Late Season Skiing in Civetta, Italy
I thought I would have to forego my yearly visit to the mountains due to the arrival of our second child in February. But we managed to sneak in a last minute trip at the very end of the season. Choosing the beautiful village of Civetta in the Italian Dolomites.
Snowboarding in Les Gets with the Family
Choosing a destination for a winter holiday is becoming more tricky with an increasing number of factors to take into consideration. This year we picked Les Gets for our family snowboard trip and we were not left disappointed.
Snowboarding in Alta Badia
After many years of going to the Val di Fassa we decided to try out a different valley (brave of us!). So we picked the Alta Badia region and stayed in a village called La Villa.
