Overview:
Snowboarding is skiing's younger, cooler and more rebellious brother, but with England lacking mountains and heavy snow rarer than a orgy at the Vatican, opportunities to snowboard are limited. However, dry slopes are a brilliant way of recreating the action on the piste even though there's less white powder on the runs than there is up Daniella Westbrook's nose.
You'll be kitted in all of the essential equipment before heading out onto the dry slope. Under the guidance of an instructor the format of the 1 hour session will be catered to suit the ability levels of your group.
If you are novices the instructor will be on hand to give you a crash course in snowboarding, but if you're an experienced group he'll take a back seat and let you show off your prowess on the plastic piste.
The main slope is 165m long and features moguls, bumps, jumps and a quarterpipe, so if you want to impress your mates get up a head of speed and create some seriously big air. Gnarly dude.
