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 :-)

‘Snowriding’ wins ski and snowboard word contest
 Poster: A snowHead
Poster: A snowHead

A winner has been chosen for the one catch-all word to replace the too-long and too-cumbersome phrase, ‘skiing and snowboarding’. It is ‘snowriding’. Roberta Stjernholm of Lakewood, Colorado was the winner....Source: http://www.utahskiandsnowboard.com/index.php?name=News&file=article&sid=245

Looks like Johnboy should have entered. See snowNews: http://snowheads.com/ski-forum/viewtopic.php?p=851255#851255

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

Didn't Warren Miller coin the phrase in 1995 in Snowriders the movie... 13 years later someone "invents" it rolling eyes

Is multiglisse the French term for this ?

I suppose the Yanks would not let a French word win.

It would have to have the word "snow" in it for them else they would think it was "foreign untrustworthy food"

One step further, what one word can be used instead of "Skis & Snowboards" i.e. Ski & snowboard servicing.
