Poster: A snowHead

I can't see anything mentioned in any winter sports holiday insurance to cover any of the Fringe snow sports (such as Blading,Telemarking. Monoskiing,etc) out side of tradditional skiing or snowboarding.
I am not talking about off piste either.
There seems to be a grey area which is not in the small print but could be used by the insuring company to invalidate the cover.

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

cc_7up, I'd have thought that all of those you've mentioned are classed as "skiing". What we would traditionally call Skiing is technically "Alpine" I think.

As Elizabeth B, says think those are all skiing, after all how do you distinguish where a short ski becomes a blade?

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

I'd think those are all "skiing", too.
The most important fringe sport from the point of view of yer average holiday maker is probably toboganning - a dangerous pastime (especially if undertaken whilst drunk) and one which may not always be covered.

My Ski Club policy document says that these are included: Big-foot skiing, cross-country skiing, curling, dog sledding, glacier skiing, ice skating, off-piste skiing / snowboarding, mono-skiing, skiing, recreational ski racing, ski touring (including where ropes are involved for safety reasons) snowboarding, snowparks, snowshoeing, sledging, snow blading, telemark and tobogganing. The "executive" version of the policy adds in: Bobsleighing, cat skiing, heli skiing / boarding, ice climbing (amateur) involving the use of ropes and snow mobiling.

below 100cm it does not require a release binding... so my best guess would be there
