Snowboarding culture In 1964 a surf enthusiast had the idea of surfing on the snow and decided to design and build the first snowboard combining skiing and surfing. Very quickly a craze developed and took the world of outdoor sports to a whole new level with snowboarding. Today, snowboarding has caught up with skiing for popularity and most of the younger thrill seekers on the mountain have a snowboard strapped to their feet rather than a set of skis. As the snowboarding culture grew, the Ski Brands such as Rossignol, White Rock and Surfanic began manufacturing snowboards with fantastic designs and graphics on the boards much like surfboards and skateboards. Salopettes and ski suites have given way to baggy snow pants and colourful snowboarding jackets and a whole culture has arisen based on the winter sport. Snow parks have begun to appear in the popular ski resorts as well as shops and activities to cater for snowboarders and snowboarding. Skiing culture Skiing is one of the world’s oldest sports, the Stone Age people of northern Europe and Russia used early forms of skis to stay on top of the snow when hunting, and the earliest ski was found in Sweden which was reported to be over 5000 years old! Over the years, skiing has become one of the world’s largest sports with thousands of families hitting the slopes each year for recreation. Skis, ski equipment, and ski wear has evolved, and technology is constantly improving allowing skis to become more aerodynamic and manoeuvrable in all snow conditions. Snowboarding hints and tips When planning a snowboarding trip it is important to bear a few things in mind when booking your holiday. If your new to the sport, try to find a resort that caters for beginners, ski schools are available and a few days with an experienced instructor works wonders for developing basic skills. Snow parks have been built in most of the popular resorts for the experienced boarders with half pipes, ramps and challenging ski runs. When embarking on a day’s boarding always check the weather reports for the day and ensure you have enough layers of ski clothing to keep you warm. A rucksac containing tools for your board, drink, food, a piste map, and for the experienced boarder, a shovel and ice pick might be a good ideal in case of an avalanche; preparation makes for a happy boarder! Ski wear should include the following – Snowboarding Jacket Snowboarding Pants Thermal underwear (including thick thermal socks) Polar neck under jacket fleece Good quality Snow proof gloves (beginners will have their hands in the snow more than you might expect) Helmet – this is now becoming compulsory for children in most ski resorts Rucksack Food and drink Goggles or sunglasses Warm hats Apres ski boots (essential for extra grip and warmth when strolling around the resort) Skiing hints and tips A good fall of snow and fresh powder is essential for Snowboarding, but not so important for skiing. Although the trip is not so enjoyable with little snow fall, Skis are easier to manoeuvre over icy conditions than snowboards. Ski schools are available for beginners and tuition is a great idea for children and adults looking to take up the sport. Remember to rest at frequent intervals, bars and restaurants can usually be found serving food and drinks on the mountain but it is always sensible to pack some food and drink in your rucksack before you head off for the day. Once again, check the weather reports and dress accordingly, bad weather and blizzards can suddenly creep in so be prepared! Skiwear should include the following - Ski Jackets Salopettes (or all in one ski suit) Thermal Underwear (including thick thermal socks) Polar neck under jacket fleece Ski gloves Helmet – this is now becoming compulsory for children in most ski resorts Rucksack Food and drink Goggles or sunglasses Warm hats Warm apres ski boots (this is a better solution to normal warm boots as the sole is designed for better grip in the snow) See our new Rossignol Range here: http://www.campingworld.co.uk/ # # # CampingWorld.co.uk is the UK's fastest growing and largest internet sales platform for camping and leisure retail, including technical equipment and ski wear during the winter ski season.
