Give It A Go!
Our Give It A Go session is taking place October 7th! We'll meet outside Ember Lounge (the student bar) at 6pm, and be getting taxis to the slope shortly afterwards (provided by us)! Please make sure to wear long sleeves, trousers, and gloves. If you do not own gloves you can buy some from the slope. This session costs £5 and can be found at the bottom of this page!
Please join our Discord - it is mandatory. We'll announce more details via there and need you to fill out a form!

Membership
Recreational - This membership is for those who can already ski / snowboard at a confident level where they're able to: make controlled linked turns, come to a controlled stop, and are able to use a drag lift. If you are not able to do any of these please look into our lessons membership!
Lessons - This membership is for those who have never skied / snowboarded before, or have spent a while away from the slopes. With this, you get 1 1/2 hours of lessons a week with 30 minutes to practice on your own after a lesson. You'll be taught the basics of controlling your skis / board, how to come to a safe and controlled stop, use a lift and much more!
See you on the slopes!
Main Sessions - Dry Slope
Our main location for our evening sessions is the Stoke Ski Centre. Located just 10 minutes from the Uni, we are privileged to have this facility so close to us!
From a beginner slope to a freestyle section with large jumps, rails and ramps this facility can accommodate all types of skiing/snowboarding levels.
The knowledgeable instructors here are great if you are just getting started, but also offer help if you want to learn new tricks!
More information can be found here: http://www.stokeskicentre.co.uk/
Dry slope sessions take place Wednesday weekly at Stoke Ski Centre 7 - 9 pm.
Local Trips
We are always open to doing Local trips to Indoor facilities when and where possible outside of Society proceedings. Whether its for Fun, Freestyle or competitions.
Annual Holidays
Each year we go away and spend a week in the mountains, sending it down slopes full of snow and having evenings out at the local bar. This year, we plan to do exactly that again! We're currently underway in planning another amazing trip abroad, and hopefully you can be a part of this one!
Thank you for reading this and hopefully well see you soon!!
