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 :-)

ise, yes - I believe it was Helen. There is an entry for the British Adapative Ski Team in snowAngels.

As the team is run on a very small budget we would be very keen to talk to any sponsors about logos on the Team jackets, bus, hats etc. Sponsorship can also be tied into the corporate ski challenge that our charity is running in January or to trips to the British Champships or Turin. Any potential sponsors to contact gary@uphillskiclub.co.uk.


I'm just checking to see if I can get some more info on the "corporate ski challenge".

From the team picture it looks like the sit-skiers must have pretty good balance - they've only got one ski!

A little bit more info:

Disability Sports UK are running a range of funding events over the coming year, they're described here. They include a corporate ski challenge in Les Gets, a Swiss Ski Challenge and an Iceland Trekking Challenge. There is the possibility for the corporate challenge of one or more of the racers joining any team who might wish to take part on behalf of fundraising for the team. If this interests anyone they should contact choodalls directly and he'll arrange it.

And if you'd like to know who's who in the picture with PG's story:
Back row left to right: Liz Miller (below knee amputee selected Turin); Mike Hopkins (our former coach); Dave Tweed (above knee amputee - on Team this year, development squad last year); their Royal Highnesses(!); Gary Murray (fundraiser DSUK);
Front row left to right: Joe Willoughby (spinal cord injury, new lady on dev. squad); Russell Docker (Spinal cord injury, going to Turin); Caroline Darke (another new lady on dev. squad); Jeremy Wood (on management team); and yours truly (former racer and now acting performance director).
