Hi hopefully we will have some more details with pics & videos soon but several members of the club had a great time at the Farmers Jam in Norwich, Mike, Madi & Lexi Rowlands, Lewis Sonvico, Amber Cordingley and Monty Wright got into the prizes , Tom, Luke, James, Callum & Kyle all skied their socks off and in the link below you can  see Kyle spinning fast to get a 900 off a pretty small jump so not easy ! Well done Kyle.

Best wishes to Madi who broken two thumbs & two fingers on the Dendix slope style course & is managing school with a laptop at the moment as she can’t hold a pen.

You can check out the full results here

The farmers jam has a fantastic atmosphere but I do worry about the injury rate on the Dendix , I heard there were several other injuries too.

The fun never stops as this weekend 24th Sept is the Brits Snowtour at Castleford with two comps for each age group.

Good luck to all taking part.

SFC on a visit in June 2007

We are thinking of going to a large dry slope in Northern France on Sunday 28th Aug, From Bracknell its less than 2 hrs to channel tunnel 30mins across follow direction to Reims & the slope is only 45mins away nr J6 on A26/E15 nr Bethune in a small place called Noeux Les Mines

Day return on tunnel is around £60, Slope fee is about 8 euros an hour , big clubhouse with sun terrace, big super market & MacDonalds near by. The slope is awesome , big kickers , moguls , half pipe , hip , & three very well made boxes to slide on.

We would make an early start  around 7am uk to ski by 11am French time & leave around 6pm to get home before 10pmUK

Let Dave Saunders or Paul Webb know if you are interested we will try & match people to car spaces to make it as econmical as possible.

Webbo gets high off the hip , note jumps & moguls in background
