ABOUT US

As a club throughout the year, we achieve and get up to a number of things:

  • Training
    • Weekly Ski Training - Hosted at Gloucester Dry Slope with a fully setup race course with starting blocks, freestyle area with kickers, rails and boxes as well as a professional standard airbag. Gloucester is also kitted out with a very good hire shop, ski/board shop and bar with drinks/food deals. 
    • Indoor Snow Trips - We head off to the likes of Milton Keynes and Hemel Hempstead throughout the year to keep you tuned in on real snow.
       
  • Competitions - If you're a competitor there will never be a shortage of things for you to do. Racers enjoy many rounds of KINGs (Dry Slope) throughout the year and as a club, we go to BUDs (Weekend Dry Slope competition in Scotland, also the best weekend of your life), BUISC (Indoor Snow) and Main Event / Above and Below (Week in the Alps). At the end of the year we also hold Varsity between us and UoB - let's find out who's best!
    • These are open to both Racers and Freestylers.
       
  • Winter Trip - This is the most outrageous and by far the best trip on the UWE calendar. A week in the Alps with your mates, hundreds of other students, with amazing skiing, boarding, après and nights out. What more could you want?
     
  • Socials - Every other week we take our members out into Bristol on our renowned socials. Loads of your snowsports friends having a great night out with; cheap entry, drinks deals and prizes to be won. "UWE Snowsports socials were the best nights out I've had since being at uni! I've made friends for life." (UWESS Fresher, 2018)
