Ah yes there is that destinct posibility, still mum should be moving somewhere nicer in the next few days and back home at the end of next week probably so at least she'll be happy, admin on the other hand may still need more help

Obviously A snowHead isn't a real person

Back to the original thread. "The Ski Club" is just a poor attempt at branding and like many such attempts they have no understanding of the concept.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Blimey - I missed this thread whilst I was in Banff. And there was me still innocently refering to SCGB...I'm surprised I'm still allowed to log in

Well said john!
We at snowHeads, on the other hand, understand branding perfectly and have undertaken a program to ensure that all members will have "I'm a snowHead" burnt into their foreheads before the start of next season.
A choice of fonts will be offered

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

admin, good one. Make sure the fonts include something Gothic for the boarders. Arial would suit the big air ballerinas

kuwait_ian, would the latter just prefer superscript?

does that mean we get to brand our babies in the Church of our choosing?

Alan Craggs, that assumes that you believe in child branding, and not in adult branding

admin, here is a picture of some typical skiers: branding "I'm a snowHead" on their foreheads would not spread the word much coz their foreheads are covered. As has been requested many times: we want a Hat or a Helmet Sticker.
(We aleady have the T-shirt, as will be seen if only Ian H would get on with getting his pickies on the website.)

maybe the SCGB (sorry, i just can't help it) should rebrand itself again by acknowldeging the diversity of the sport and going back to recognising its geographical roots (just how many non-Brit members does it have, i wonder?).
In fact, it could follow French Connection's example:
Snowsports Club UK would make a nice, appropriate, but similarly mistyped, acronym

Tony Lane, is that Snowsports Club UNited Kingdom: SCUNK?

And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

Jonpim, that could work as well (although it might be more appropriate for stereotyped boarders sitting in the middle of the piste over the brow of the hill in a haze of fragrant smoke!)
I was thinking more in line of the FCUK logo. Perhaps they could have t-shirts saying "I am a SCUKer"

Tony Lane, maybe I am just a bit slow, but the transition from SCUK to SUCK took a lot longer that for FCUK.
It may not quite have the impact you hoped.
But maybe it works for others....?

You know it makes sense.
|
I can just see the title they'll slap on the news coverage of the rebrand - "From FCUK to SCUK - Greater Penetration for the Ski Club."
