💥 Want to try snowboard racing? Get ready to experience shredding the slopes! 💥
Looking for a fresh way to spend some time at uni? UCL Snowsports’ Snowboard Team has you covered! This taster session is all about fun, freedom, and experiencing the thrill of the ride.
🏂 Introducing the Brentwood Snowboard Taster Sessions! 🏂
📆 When are the sessions?
Ready to jumpstart your snowboard slalom journey? Our Snowboard Taster Sessions offer two chances to dive into the action:
• Session 1: Wednesday, October 2nd
• Session 2: Wednesday, October 9th
• Meeting Point: Outside Bloomsbury Fitness (next to the Student Centre) at 12 PM.
Note: Training is usually on Thursday evenings, but due to our coach’s availability the taster sessions will take place on Wednesday afternoons.
Note: You can only sign up to one taster session per snowsports discipline (ski, snowboard, freestyle), as we want as many people as possible to be able to access the sessions.
🎒 What should you bring?
• Gloves.
• Ski socks.
• Long-sleeved top and long trousers—be ready for the slopes (and a bit of dirt!).
• Helmet (if you have one - these will be provided if not).
• Snowboard Boots (if you have them - these will be provided if not).
• Water and snacks.
📍 How do we get there?
We’ll meet outside Bloomsbury Fitness at 12 PM. We'll then make our way to Brentwood together, ensuring a seamless evening from start to finish.
Note: Unfortunately, we can only take people who can already snowboard. You must be able to control your speed and direction on a snowboard on a blue/red run. If you’ve never done dryslope or snowboard racing before, no worries! If you’re a complete beginner on the slopes, keep an eye out for our beginner snowboard sessions coming later this year.
Note: You must have a taster membership or above to join the session for insurance reasons.
🎊 Follow us on Instagram @uclsnowsports for the latest updates on training, socials, and competitions! Can’t wait to hit the slopes with you!
