Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

I rate it as just about the best Ski mag...so different to the usual advatorial that most of them are these days.

You can read all their backissues as free pdf downloads from their website.

I have no connection...I just like a decent ski read...

Yep, agreed. Although I'd buy it alone just for the pictures. I can read though, just for the record.

Thanks rungsp. This was a nice surprise for me this morning.

It has been a hard battle to get to where we are but it is nice to see we are producing somethng that you guys are enjoying.

tough crowd, we are very picky about our photos. As a photographer myself, I love nothing more than flicking through some inspiring photos and we try to give the same back to you guys. Nothing makes me want to ski more than an awesome photo.

Yup it's a great magazine, IMHO the enthusiasm of the staff, content (including design and photos) and altogether totally cool attitude that the mag exhudes make it an absolute must read, and one that betters all the news stand ski mags I've seen, so well done to all involved Smile

I enjoyed it so much last year that I've now paid a wee subscription (cheap at twice the price) to make sure I don't miss any issues Very Happy

BTW, are print back issues available?

We are just putting the finishing touches to the first issue of the season so it should be with you before the beginning of the ski show.

We will have a stand (or a part of Warren Smith's stand) at the Metro Ski Show so feel free to swing by and pick up a copy of the magazine and have a chat. We will also have some more t-shirts available at the show.

Thank you all for your support

george_1, I should have the details finalised this weekend, but a sneak peak at the subscriptions will be:

£7.50 - Four issues of Dark Summer (equivalent to one season)
£12.50 - Fours issues of Dark Summer and a Dark Summer t-shirt
£17.50 - Four issues of Dark Summer, a Dark Summer t-shirt and a choice of DVD (from Not Another Ski Movie, WSKI 106, and Pop Yer Bottlez)

roga, we should have plenty around the show, but if you want to tell me your size I will stick one on one side for you. They are the same design as before, but we may experiment a little with the colours (although there will definitely be our signature navy blue)

DarkSummer, I love the pic in the gallery - with the message 'we do not stop playing because we grow old, we grow old because we stop playing' - I sent the link to my dad who lives by this!

Thanks DarkSummer, navy is probably fine and I'd say a medium will be okay for me. I should be at the show on Sunday so if you could keep me one that'd be cool.

See you there

Very Happy

DarkSummer, missed you guys at the show yesterday.

Trains to London were awful and late and as a result I didn't get to the show until 1 in the afternoon, by the time I found the stand you guys were off for a (doubless much earned) break. Went back 3 or 4 times but you were still away but no worries. Grabbed myself a copy of the latest mag which looks cool (and the DVD is great, and I have to say far beter than the one with Fall Line this month - good on them for trying but...).

If you haven't sent out sub copies yet don't worry about posting me one (I'm in Bristol, PM me for address if you wanna check) but if you do post a spare copy won't be a problem to me Smile

Will have to get that tee off the site I guess...

roga, apologies for not being around. Those who were at the show on Saturday will no doubt have witnessed the leaking roof which caused several stands (indluing ours) to get completely soaked. We had to spend most of Sunday sorting that out and so weren't around the stand too much.

We should have the t-shirts up on the website soon once we have recovered from the post-show fatigue.

Was anyone around on Thursday to see the UK Freeski Awards Ceremony?
