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 :-)

BASI newsletter 95

 Poster: A snowHead
Poster: A snowHead
is of absolutely no relevance to the snowboarders whatsoever. Much like my course debrief.

That is all. Kind of annoyed me on the train today while I was reading it. I counted the word snowboard 3 times. Nordic walking looks gay, is gay, and will always be gay. Telemarking with stolen piste poles also looks gay. Eurotest is gay. Special offers from stockli are gay. Clive woodward is gay. Hemel looks gay. The next british top ski prospects look gay. The cairngorn ad for snowboard teachers looks gay. Halti looks gay. Common theory looks gay. Due membership fees are gay.

More boarding, less gay please for the next one. Interview jenny jones at the very least, talk some crap about binding angles even, anything but more alpine. And make an adaptive snowboard course so I dont need to learn to ski. Thank you please.

Full marks for the rant - have to agree that adaptive seems a bit of a cop out for trousering a second discipline, although no doubt highly worthwhile.

Jonny luv plums, that rant should be the basis for an article you're going to write for BASI News 96 to right the imbalance...

rob@rar, I know, it does say BASI is the kind of organisation that is made from it's members input. Maybe a 1 page "all that is gay" article.
Ah well, I'm just bitter because I wont be doing L2 this year Sad By the time I find time to do it my 1st aid will be out of date Sad

Jonny luv plums, I think by and large the 'feature' articles in the BASI News are written by members themselves, while the news storiess are written by staff or Board members. So if there's nothing in there for snowboarders I'd guess it's because not many snowboarders submit articles. Not that I'm criticising - I did sort of promise I'd write an article about my Mountain Safety course (the only on-snow course available to all disciplines AIUI) but still haven't got round to it...

Had a few complaints last year that our club mag was 90% about racing. Well, that's what was submitted. If members submitted articles about other aspects of skiing, then they could be included.

Maybe the BASI Newsletter is the same?

Interestingly, for this year's (currently being compiled) we've had lots of non-racing articles sent in ....

To be fair it was a bit of a Nordic issue, but a friend wrote one of the articles and I don't think she's gay wink

But I'm with rob@rar, your rant would make the perfect article, and if Wayne could get the letters page back, life will be good Laughing

If by that you are referring to telemarking with a traditional wooden lurk, I beg to differ:
