Always fancied snowboarding but didn’t know where to start? This will sort you right out!
The Snowboard Asylum launches Welcome to Snowboarding to help beginners ease their way into snow sports
This year’s winter Olympics saw GB’s very own Jenny Jones bring home a bronze medal in snowboarding’s slope style event. What followed was a huge increase in people taking up snowboarding, and this coming winter is anticipating an even further rise.
And the really amazing part? GB hero Jenny Jones herself will be involved, joining in on the fun and giving everyone a real boost.
The sport can seem a little intimidating for those who are completely new to it, which is why The Snowboard Asylum has decided to launch a programme, Welcome to Snowboarding, to encourage more beginners to take it up with confidence. It’ll form part of the Big Bang Weekenders set to take place this October – just enough time for beginners to get comfortable on their boards before the season really kicks in.
