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 :-)

Summers here, and for me its the UK, more specifically Wales for play time. So for me, its surfing, kitesurfing-to satisfy carving and edging needs and then mountain biking for getting me down mountains as quickly as possible and creating major smiles Happy

Whats every one doing?

Iceski, ditto, except the kitesurfing.

Surfing the west Coast of Ireland around Lahinch (Co. Clare) - good waves of late, 6' glassy Crab Island the other day, good swell due at the end of the week too from the leftovers of TS Alberto, then more from the tail end of TS Beryl a few days after that too i` reckon (though not on the forecasts yet).......... snowHead

Nice, we had 2-3 foot and glassy here for one day last week. More would have been nice. A good mate has been over at Mullagmore or the comp recently. Crazy stuff!

Working up as much money as possible for when I next go skiing (need catskiing funds snowHead).

Probably just gonna get in a bit of cycling and tennis otherwise though, some skydiving would be nice but think I'm gonna save money instead.

Some of my mates were in the Mully comp. one got nominated for an XXL award, crazy place indeed. Haven't surfed it (have no intention of doing so) but have surfed Aileens a few times if you know that one (might break off this next swell although tides and swell direction don't look the best for it).

been sailing today. First time in ages. Actually, more motoring than sailing as winds were mainly v light, but lovely to be out on the water. Sat with a lovely picnic, glass of excellent French Sauvignon at lunchtime, watching an oystercatcher pottering on the diminishing mud bank. I'd forgotten how therapeutic it was! Purpose of day was for me to practice some manoevring under power on a bigger boat, as I'm very rusty having only been in charge of our tiny light boat with outboard for the last few years. Two lots of berthing and unberthing and locking out and in without any dramas and without losing 2 year old overboard (last task being much more of a challenge), so now feeling more confident. Off to the Isle of Wight for 8 days on Friday - not missing the snow one bit. wink

I didnt realise so many snowHead are into sailing!

Perhaps we need a SODS Bash? (Snowheads On De Solent Laughing)

I'll be spending as much time on the water as I can. At least once a week racing myself and also more importantly teaching my daughter in her Mirror. Saturday just gone was ideal, 15 knots and 25C, it was more like the Carribean than the UK Very Happy

Climbing and hill walking mostly. Am going to walk Laugavegur in under 24 hours, it's about 55km so not that OTT. A bit of Glacier skiing in the next month depending on how it's looking crevasse wise.

Sailing. I have a Dart 15 Catamaran which I sail on a little reservoir near here, but looking forward to taking it for a week down to Abersoch. Otherwise a bit of cycling, caving/mine exploration, walking and helping out at some of the local ski clubs with their summer maintenance.

My wife also recently bought an inflatable Kayak which we can fit the dog into so perhaps a bit of paddling in the Lakes too snowHead

Until last week I would have been sailing my F16 catamaran this summer; but I've just sold it as I was not really using it!

So; I'll be mainly skiing inside and doing a bit of work; and if I get the time might build a hot-box for my skis!

Rock climbing and mountain biking mainly, bit of kajaking if I get round to it. There's never enough time to play all the games I want, well not and hold down a job. But then without the job you can't afford to play the games.

I just got back from an evening motorbiking around North Wales. Left my mate on his R1 well behind on the bends... I love burning off sports bikes Laughing
Other than that... clay shooting, horse riding, mountain biking, rabbit stalking, rock climbing and camping. Gonna get back into my running too. Maybe some hiking too if I get the time.

Were much the same here, Im not a sailor, but Rupert is huge into it and just got himself a new yacht as well. Personally Im all about kitesurf and Mountain biking...and surf when we get a rare good day on one of the Aberystwyth reefs Happy
Motor biking as well, but Ive just sold the z1000 to buy a drz400 and gie the off road a bit of a go. Do miss the roady though, especially on North Wales roads. What are you riding Scarpa?

If any of you are aroun the Machynlleth area and want to see some local off piste mountain biking, drop me a line, Im always keen to show folks around.

Well I do a fair bit of biking, some off road, but there aren't many hills around here. Tried downhill in the Alps last summer and it frightened the life out of me. Got a better bike on order so I'm intending to try a few forest trails out this summer.
