STEAMBOAT COLORADO, U.S.A.
Seven thousand feet up in the Colorado Rockies, nestled quietly below one of the largest resort mountains in North America, sits a vibrant community that serves as a constant reminder that the Old West is alive and well. Whether you're stepping foot into a local pub, one of the charming boutiques, or stepping off the gondola, the reception is the same: genuine and warm. With 165 trails, 3,668 vertical feet, and nearly 3,000 acres of terrain, Steamboat’s six peaks are filled with worldclass groomed cruisers, bumps, steeps, meadows, legendary trees and four Terrain Parks. Our obsession with skiing and snowboarding is something we like to share. Known around the globe for the deep, untouched powder that collects between the tall aspen and evergreens, It’s so different that the phrase Champagne Powder® snow was coined right here to describe it. And with more than 10 metres of the deep stuff last year, Steamboat never has to worry about fresh powder. After a day on the mountain, take a dip in the Hot Springs and you’ll think you’ve found the fountain of youth. Enjoy a stroll down Lincoln Avenue where you’re sure to feel the essence of Steamboat’s down-home western hospitality. Steamboat also boasts a variety of lodging options and more than 100 bars and restaurants, as well as a great variety of off-slope activities. From a pioneering frontier community, Steamboat has grown into a world-class resort, and having sent more athletes to the Olympics than any other town in America, has earned the moniker Ski Town, U.S.A.® Get a face-full of Champagne Powder snow, a boatload of western hospitality and fantastic holiday packages: visit steamboat.com or call UK toll-free, 0808-101-3798.

TSA Staff Board Testing: We see board testing as a crucial part of our staff training. How can shop staff confidently talk to somebody about a board without having had the experience of riding it? That’s why we take our staff away testing boards over the summer. If you want to know more about how a specific board rides then call into a TSA Store and get the lowdown by speaking to a person who has ridden it.

SNOWBOARD TECHNOLOGY Just when it looked like things were becoming simple in snowboarding somebody went and reinvented the way they work. We now have Camber, Reverse Camber, Hybrid Camber, Camber/Rocker and last but not least, Flat. With so many variations of shape, profile and construction it’s pretty easy to get lost in the hype and brand names of all this different technology. For this coming season we have categorised each board to describe its general purpose and have also reintroduced our acclaimed board selector ratings, albeit in a slightly revised form. We have used 4 main categories of boards, below is a description of each of these. Obviously you get a certain amount of crossover between categories, so where a board crosses over we put its main category first, so where you have Freestyle/All Terrain this would mean the board is primarily a freestyle board but it is versatile enough to ride over the whole mountain whereas All Terrain Freestyle would mean the board is primarily a ride everything snowboard but is still pretty good for freestyle riders. ALL TERRAIN These are the workhorses of snowboarding and are one of the most popular types of snowboard. They are as the description says do everything, ride anywhere snowboards. If you’re after a board that will let you ride everything that the mountain can deliver then All Terrain boards should be your starting point. FREESTYLE A bit of a catch all category. For the sake of this we class freestyle as taking skateboarding style riding to the mountain. Freestyle brings in Jibbing, Park, Pipe and just playing around. The specific disciplines of freestyle are rated in the board selector scores of each review. FREERIDE Freeride is a simple way to describe big mountain snowboards. Boards that are designed to be ridden fast and furious, through deep powder and backcountry steeps. JIB This really focuses on technical urban riding, hand rails and generally man made obstacles. Once you know the category that you are in you can then use our board selector system to narrow down the exact criteria to match your own riding style. The board selector works by rating specific design characteristics with scores between 1 and 10 (1 being minimum and 10 being maximum). The scores are accredited to the following design and performance groups. JIB The characteristics that an urban rail rider is looking for is a looser skate like feel, a soft predictable flex that allows the board to flex over a rail or box and a balanced feel to the board to increase control when spinning and riding out switch. Jib boards are designed to work better at the lower speeds this type of riding demands. The higher the score the more suited to this type of riding the board is. PARK Today’s park board is a completely different animal to a park board 4 or 5 years ago. With kickers getting bigger the demands placed on the board have changed beyond recognition. A competent rider now needs a powerful flex to allow them to pop off kickers and to be able to handle hard high speed landings. A good park board has now moved closer to a freeride board in terms of flex and response, this is down to needing to power off the tail to pop off kickers as
PAGE006
opposed to driving out of a turn on freeride board. However the main difference between the two is that the Park board still keeps the balanced shape of a twin tip for increased control in the air and during switch landings. CARVE There are certain design criteria that make a board carve well, for this category the higher the score the more the design and construction of the board is geared towards the specific needs of the high speed rider. Generally for a board to carve well you need the following elements in place. Flex is generally stiffer towards the tail of the board, this lets the rider drive the board through the turn winding up the energy in the board to release you into the next turn. Torsionally the board needs to be a little stiffer to hold the power through the turn. Boards designed for carving tend to be directional, this difference in shape allows the board to be more predictable and stable through the turn and also helps with the directional flex. POWDER For most people Powder is the Nirvana of snowboarding. To maximise performance in powder the board needs to have certain design features. The most important thing you are looking for when riding freshies is for the nose to lift quickly and easily whilst the tail sinks. This brings the board up onto a plane and reduces the need for the rider to sit on the tail. An extreme powder board will have a wide profile nose and a narrow tail to assist this. Obviously the powder board will be fully directional again helping to bring the nose up. The powder rating is scored on the shape and profile of the board and how easy it will be to ride in powder. PERFORMANCE The performance category is really an ability level. A board with a high score is going to be an aggressive high performance board for advanced riders, whereas a board with a low score is generally going to be easy going and forgiving to ride, with all ability levels in between. It’s really important to make your decisions based around the reality of your skill level. If you’re new to the sport then there is no point looking at high end boards with a high score, these will just hold you back. As a rough guide if you say a score of around 4,5,6 is going to be perfect for beginners through to intermediates, 6 to 7 for good Intermediates to advanced and 7 to 10 for advanced to expert riders.

BATALEON DISASTER £295.00
Type: Jib Flex: Soft

The Disaster is the first new board in the Bataleon line and the first pure Jib specific board they have ever made. Featuring a wider flatter section of Triple Base through the front and back part of the board which runs into a smaller flat section through the centre has created a looser and more skate like ride, also by lifting the edges off the snow from under the feet Bataleon have increased the boards stability. It’s this stability and confidence inspiring ride that firmly slaps the Disaster at the top of the tree for urban and park jib boards. A no brainer.

Document Magazine’s Snowboard of the Year, Gadget Show’s Snowboard of the Year and the most tested snowboard at The Snowboard Test last year. This is Head’s flagship freestyle board and is aimed at good to advanced riders who are looking for a board that will deliver a softish yet predictable flex but will deliver masses of power and pop when it’s needed. Head achieve this almost impossible feat by integrating their advanced KERS energy recovery chip into the tail of the board. This stiffens the end of the board up when you push through the tail giving unrivalled levels of pop. So if you’re after a high performance snowboard you really MUST have this board on your list.
Again one of the most popular boards on The Snowboard Test this year, pretty much everyone who rode it came back delirious about how good it rode. The Evil KERS is aimed at intermediate to advanced riders who are looking for a board that can handle the whole mountain and is based around a twin tip shape with a flat platform under the feet and rocker at the tip and tail. This advanced profile is matched perfectly with Head’s KERS energy recovery chips in both the tip and tail. These state of the art electrical chips deliver a level of snap and response unheard of on boards this playful, making this one of the most fun boards to ride for even the most advanced riders.

The Defy is the board of choice for Alex Tank and was one of the most raved about snowboards on The Snowboard Test this year. Built around a twin tip chassis with traditional rocker profile it could easily get lost in the world of twin tip boards. But what makes this something special is the inclusion of Head’s advanced KERS technology in both the tip and tail. This unique energy recovery system translates vibrations into electricity which it fires through booster cables running through the tip and tail of the board. This increases snap and power when pushing hard transforming this into one of the most responsive and versatile rocker boards on the market.

026-027 Union & Burton Bindings_Layout 1 02/09/2011 10:28 Page 026
SNOWBOARD BINDINGS Choosing a binding generally comes in a distant third when looking at new kit. Most people spend an age researching the board and then the same trying on different boots, after that it’s normally a case of “that will do” for the binding because it matches the board. But that approach does a huge disservice to what really is one of the most important parts of a set up. The reality is, this simple bit of plastic is 100% responsible for delivering the input from the rider direct to the board, get this wrong and that input is broken and no matter how careful you were in choosing the rest of your kit the simple truth is that it isn’t going to work properly. When choosing a binding take into account what board it’s going on, how responsive you want it to be and what type of riding you will be doing. In our descriptions for each binding we have a tech spec section, cross reference this with the technical glossary below to help you understand the performance characteristics of the binding. BASEPLATE Polycarbonate: This basic material is generally used in bindings that are aimed at riders who want a more forgiving ride. Polycarbonate can undergo large plastic deformations without cracking or breaking. Glass Reinforced Nylon: By combining short fibre glass with nylon you can control the stiffness of the baseplate. The % of glass dictates the stiffness. This ranges from 10% to 45% with 45% being the stiffest. Anything over 45% renders the material too brittle. Carbon Reinforcing: This generally replaces the glass fibre content of the binding with carbon fibres increasing both response and control. Aluminium Heel Cups: These are generally added to bindings where the Baseplate is adjustable for length. Power Ramps: Increase the footprint of the binding by sitting underneath the toe of the boot. Power ramps increase the response speed by picking up the weight shift of the rider earlier. Footbeds: Are generally formed from EVA and normally cover the baseplate of the binding under the boot. Their main objective is to isolate the boot from vibrations coming through the binding which can cause foot cramps. Baseplate Bushings: Bushings normally serve a couple of purposes, the first is to add another level of vibration dampening whilst the second is to soften off the edges of the binding to try and reduce core compression in
PAGE026
the boards core which can result in structural damage to the board.
HIGHBACKS Plastic Make Up: This is the same as for baseplates, a polycarbonate highback will be soft and forgiving whilst the 30%, 45% and carbon reinforced highbacks will increase in stiffness. Urethane: Mainly aimed at freestyle riders, urethane highbacks have a really soft torsional twist whilst still being supportive with direct pressure. This makes this material perfect for riders looking for mobility on rails or in the air. Asymmetric: These highbacks are specific to the left and right foot. They are designed to work more efficiently than a standard symmetric highback by being able to pick up the riders energy shifts earlier.
STRAPS 3D Straps: By stitching the strap fabric in a specific way you can create a 3 dimensional shape. The advantage of 3D straps is that they sit over the boot better increasing comfort and reducing strap pressure. Cap Straps: These are designed to sit over the front of the boot, they help pull the boot back into the binding heelcup and reduce pressure over the front of the boot. Combination Straps: These can be used as either a cap strap or a traditional over the top of the toe strap.

THE BIG INTERVIEW
Jamie Nicholls Photos: Frode Sandbech/Nike
JAMIE NICHOLLS At only just 18 years old you could be forgiven for thinking that Jamie Nicholls is a relative newcomer to the sport, but the reality is that it’s now 11 years since Jamie burst onto the scene. Everybody knew that this tiny 7 year old kid had something special but nobody could have forecasted his meteoric rise to become one of the best riders in the world. From his section in David Benedek’s ‘In Short’ movie to winning his first overall Slopestyle Championships at the Brits aged just 15, Jamie has grasped his opportunities with both hands and has gone on to become the global face of British snowboarding. We’ve got together with Jamie and asked him a few questions: TSA: So Jamie although you’re only 18 it seems like you have been around for ages, can you tell us how you got started in snowboarding? Jamie: It was when my mum and dad took me to Halifax ski and snowboard centre when I was seven. That’s 11 years, a pretty big chunk of my life. TSA: When did you first realise that snowboarding was going to become something more than just recreation, what I really mean is when did you realise that this was going to become a proper career for you? Jamie: Well I still don’t really take it all too seriously, I don’t actually think of it as my job. It’s what I enjoy and I’m always going to enjoy it. I still really do it for fun, yeah the money is good which really allows you to get to interesting places to ride but that’s really it. I don’t really think of it as a job and go along as I always have done. TSA: How important was it to you appearing in David Benedek’s ‘In Short’ movie or were you still too young to understand what a massive deal it was that some young dry slope kid got a section in a global snowboard movie? Jamie: I never really realised how big that movie was, I’d heard of David Benedeck and I’d seen some of his movies and his sections in the Robot Food movies, plus he was one of my big influences and one of my favourite riders. I didn’t really think it was a massive thing because I was only about 12 at the time. It was when the film came out that it really hit me how big it was. It got premiered all over the world and wherever I rode people were coming up to me and going “you’re that dryslope kid from the UK”. It wasn’t until I got a bit older that I realised it was such a big thing to be part of. TSA: It’s pretty obvious to everyone that the people around you like your family and Wayne Taylor have had a massive influence on you. How important has it been to you that you had this support network that really helped you without being overly pushy? Jamie: Definitely my Mum and Dad have always been there for me and helped me out without ever pushing me into it, they used to take me up to the slope to ride and they would also come up to ride for themselves as well. The rest of the time they would take me to the slope and I always rode with Wayne Taylor. Wayne would ride with me and help me learn new stuff, as well as Wayne I had a lot of help from James Keery as well, those guys were always there for me when I was younger and still are now. All the guys in that scene around Halifax really helped me when I was younger. TSA: As you are still so young you achieved a lot of your success whilst you were still at school. How supportive was your school and did they get what you were achieving
and where it was leading? Jamie: I don’t actually think they were that supportive, I think they could have helped me out a lot more. They always let me go to places which was cool but I was always asking for work so that I could carry on my education but they weren’t really interested. I think they thought that I just wanted to focus on my snowboarding and wasn’t really bothered about my school work. TSA: You have two different groups that you seem to ride with, when you’re away you seem pretty tight with that group of riders such as Seb Toots, Halldor, McMorris and co then when you’re back in the UK you ride a lot with Johnny Russell, Will Smith, Thrashmore etc, how do these two distinctly different groups of riders inspire your riding? Jamie: It’s a difficult question, Seb, Mark, Halldor and the 6.0 guys are definitely good friends and they really push me hard technically but when I come home guys like Thrashmore, Nuddsy, Will Smith and Johnny Russell still push me technically and they really help to keep me grounded. But the reality is these guys have always been there for me, they are friends that I have grown up with and we have so much fun. As for when I’m away, I’ve only known those guys for a year or so but I have so much fun with them as well. TSA: It seems to me that your involvement with both Nike and Red Bull have really helped take both your riding and outlook on the sport to a new level, do you think this sport orientated approach to snowboarding has to take place for riders to truly step up to the plate nowadays? Jamie: I think it’s safe to say that Nike and Red Bull have got me to where I am today without them and Bob Klein at Octagon I don’t think I’d be where I am. With brands like Red Bull and Nike they get you when you’re young and bring you up gradually and then get you into the big comps. I guess you can just appear from nowhere and win a big comp and then get those comp invites and deals but I guess it’s hard. I think especially with Red Bull they have made me understand how fit you need to be to really push yourself and do things like double corks, you need so much core and leg strength to land these tricks and even to actually get them round. If it wasn’t for Red Bull I wouldn’t have known how to keep that strong, they give me a training schedule. I guess it has turned into a sport, I don’t think you see skateboarders going into the gym, but I don’t mind as it does really help me. TSA: Your first pro season was a blinder, especially that period around late January and February. Were you surprised at how successful that period was? Jamie: Yeah, it’s definitely been a really good season, I won a few really good events, it’s a really good feeling after trying so hard to actually get there. The good thing is though it makes life so much easier going into the next season as
mail order hotline 0844 499 1414
you get invites for all the big events. I tried so hard and eventually it paid off so I was really happy. TSA: Now that Slopestyle is to become an Olympic discipline how much of your season will be based around qualification for that compared to taking in classic events like the X Games? Jamie: That’s a really hard question to answer, I really want to compete for my country and I guess it’s a really good feeling going to the Olympics, it’s such a big thing whereas events like the X Games aren’t really that well known by the public. I’m definitely going to try and qualify but I’m still going to try and do other events like the X Games. TSA: So what are your plans for the coming season? Jamie: I’m off to New Zealand for the New Zealand Open which I got invited to this year thanks to my results last year. Then I want to start filming, I haven’t really done that yet and I’m really keen to give that a go and go session some street rails. I’m still going to do loads of events but I’m going to be a bit more organised and pick and be a little more selective so I have time for both filming and competing. TSA: Finally any shout outs for anybody? Jamie: Just a shout out to everybody, except my sister... only joking!

SNOWBOARD BOOTS Boots! If you snowboard then you know how important it is to get them right. 8 hours on the hill with foot pain is enough to put you off snowboarding for life. If you’re new to snowboarding then this will be your most important purchase! Bear these very important guidelines in mind when buying boots: • Make time for trying on many pairs. Don’t come in 5 minutes before we close and buy the first pair you see. • Different brands will fit differently. Even different models of the same brand can differ in width or flex.

• Just because you’re a 9 in your work shoes, it doesn’t mean you’re a 9 in every snowboard boot. When you come into one of our stores we will have a look at the shape of your foot. Is it wide? Do you have a high instep? Our experienced staff will give you a head start on which boots to look at first. Remember though, it’s fit first people! Boots are hidden away under bindings, pants and snow most of the time, so they rarely make an appearance anyway. What kind of boot do you need? You need a boot that reflects your riding and the rest of your set up. A super soft boot inside a super stiff binding is a mismatch in our opinion. If you’re just learning you may prefer a softer, more forgiving ride. If you ride fast or need more ankle support you may prefer a stiffer boot. But at the end of the day it’s best to have a chat with us, try on different boots and get them expertly fitted to your feet… it makes such a difference! To help you to understand our boot range we have given each boot a description of its use and also a performance rating, these will help you decide if the boot suits your own riding style and also give you an idea into how responsive it is. 1 for soft and forgiving 10 for aggressive and responsive. OUTSOLE
BACKSTAY
The outsole is the layer in direct contact with the ground. The outsole may comprise a single piece, or may be an assembly of separate pieces of different materials.
Reinforcement of the spine of the boot, this prevents the back of the boot collapsing and increases response.
MIDSOLE
Allows the upper and lower sections of the boot to be laced independently of one another. Allows for the rider to obtain the optimum fit.
The layer in between the outsole and the insole that is typically there for shock absorption. Different companies use different materials for the midsoles of their boots. Some boots may not have a midsole at all as the outsole is a single piece of dampened material.
EVA CUSHIONING EVA Is one of the materials popularly known as expanded rubber or foam rubber. It is used as a shock absorber in boots.
AIR POCKET
Vapen, which means Weapon in Swedish is an allnew boot in the Nike line, and is the boot of choice for the majority of the Nike team riders. Designed with the assistance of X Games gold medallist Louie Vito it delivers the perfect combination of freestyle mobility with a responsive and dynamic ride making it the perfect boot for any rider who wants a mid/soft go anywhere ride anything boot. Features: Airforce 1 low profile Outsole, Full length Phylon Midsole, PU Heel Dampening, Traditional lacing, Neoprene Flex Notch, Internal Backstay, Heat Mouldable Liner, Internal wrap lacing harness, Space Blanket Insulation. Colours: Blue (940) or Black (901) Sizes: UK 6-12 (UK 7-11 Blue) Code 801613
ZONAL LACING
INTERNAL HARNESS This is usually in the form of a lace up harness stitched to the inside of the upper and mid part of the boot shell. It helps retain the liner and allows for a more integrated fit between the inner and outer parts of the boot.
3D TONGUE
These are usually cassettes formed by creating pockets of air and are normally inserted into the heel unit of the boot to offer additional dampening and shock absorption.
By forming the outer boot tongue from a variety of fabric cuts it is possible to form a 3 dimensional shape, this sits over the foot better and is also less likely to distort which can cause foot pain.
ARTICULATING CUFF
EYESTAYS
Allowing the upper and lower zones of the boot to flex independently creates fluid forward motion, minimizes shell distortion, and maximises heel hold and response.
Lacing eyestays help create optimal leverage as you tighten your laces.

Aimee Fuller exploded onto the UK snowboard scene in 2008 by winning both the Women’s Junior Slopestyle and Halfpipe at the British Snowboard Championships. From then on there was no looking back and in a few short years Aimee had risen up the ranks to be able to compete at the highest level of snowboarding. In 2011 Aimee threw it down at some of the most prestigious events on the freestyle snowboard calendar, these included the Euro X Games, The Burton European Open, O’Neill Evolution and The Arctic Challenge. Aimee is widely regarded as one of the most exciting prospects in women’s snowboarding, a true global superstar in the making. We’ve got together with Aimie and asked her a few questions:
TSA: Last season you got an invite to the European X Games alongside Jenny Jones, I guess that’s the biggest comp you have ever done. How was that experience for you? Aimee: Euro X was really fun, it was a bit intimidating, as I had never ridden so many big jumps, it was great though having Jenny there as she has been and won it 3x ha! I want to go back though and step up my game! TSA: Not wanting to put any pressure on you but it’s pretty safe to say the snowboard world sees you as the future of British Female Snowboarding. How has being close to Jenny Jones who is at the top of her game and riding with her so much affected your approach to snowboarding and the snowboard competition circuit? Aimee: Ha! No pressure! having Jones there, is great, she is a good friend and super fun to hang around with not only that she has set a path for female snowboarding, it has affected my approach as she has proved anything is possible, it doesn’t matter where you come from, at the end of the day it’s how much work you want to put into it and you will reap the benefits. TSA: You have a bit of a history of action sports prior to snowboarding. Motocross seems to have been a pretty important part of your life for a long time, I heard you started riding Motocross bikes aged 6 and you even managed a second place finish in the British Championship when you were 8. What was it that made you step away from Motocross and into snowboarding? Aimee: Yep correct in thinking that, I got a quad bike when I was 4 and my first motocross bike when I was 6. I loved it as it was something I could do with my Dad and Granddad as they both used to do it, however I had a pretty bad slam when my mum was watching and she really didn’t like me doing it anyway. So just over time I have gradually moved away from it and I sold my bike just 2 years ago. My mum never stopped me from doing it, but understandably it’s not the kind of sport you want your 8 year old daughter to be doing with 30 other guys on the line up! TSA: I might be wrong but I can imagine Motocross being pretty much a male dominated sport, did growing up in that environment help you when you arrived in snowboarding as that is still pretty much a male dominated sport? Aimee: I didn’t really notice the male domination coming across from motocross as that is so heavily male dominated, I have found that there is a great girls scene in Europe and the UK, I have met so many cool friends to ride with and I think that’s something that is hard to come across. Plus all the guys are super encouraging and push me to try new stuff. Last year Jack Shackleton used to call me a massive fassy if I didn’t go off the pro line with the guys, and that made me get involved and included me in the session. TSA: You arrived on the UK scene with a bang appearing almost from nowhere. What was it that made you decide to take your snowboarding to the next level, from just riding for fun to making it a lot more career focussed? Aimee: I have always just done snowboarding for fun, and I still do, I get such a buzz when I go away. I didn’t realise that it was possible to do it at the next level and then when the opportunity came I was so stoked and I have just made the most of it. TSA: It seems to me looking from the outside that the combination of being a pretty solid part of the Roxy family and working with Hamish and Dan from the British Freestyle Team really helped you progress at a massive level over the past 2 seasons. Do you think this is true and if so in what ways did that help you? Aimee: Dan and Hamish have been great support over the past 2 years, I went full time on the GB team last season and before that I was on the junior team. Ham is really good on the technical side of tricks on the mountain, and Dan has been there and helped me out and advised me at contests! Also Lesley McKenna my Roxy Team manager is such a legend, she is at a lot of the comps and is always helping us as team. She is such a wealth of knowledge; she has been to the Olympics 3 x’s so a massive thanks to all 3 of you, I wouldn’t be here without you.
mail order hotline 0844 499 1414
TSA: I guess the question everyone wants to ask is about the Olympics. With Slopestyle now part of the Olympics how important is this to you personally. I don’t mean for your sponsors or your family I mean for you directly. And do you think it will change the competitions you enter and your whole outlook on the sport? Aimee: Right now I see the Olympics as any other contest; the only difference is it’s the OLYMPICS! But it would be all the same people I ride against in a normal comp. I don’t specifically go and train for each contest I go to, I am going to just stick to my game plan, which is to keep learning new tricks and progress as much as I can, and If I am on form and the opportunity comes, I want to go, It would be so cool to go and represent the country, meet all the other GB team athletes and as well be there with friends and all my other riding peers but in an Olympic environment. TSA: So what does the coming season hold for Aimee Fuller? Aimee: I have lots of little goals, I want to progress in my own riding, film some more with Lipstick productions, do some TTR contests, maybe try and get a good world ranking, I have never focused on that before, I finished 12th last season in the Slopestyle rankings. TSA: Final question from Chris Orchard, who wants to know why you speak with a Scottish accent when you are drunk when you haven’t ever lived in Scotland.? Aimee: Ha Ha! sure you didn't mean Shannon?! ;) That’s so not true! I live in Belfast, so that’s my attempt at putting on a northern Irish accent. Maybe it comes across as a little Scottish.

LUGGAGE Once again the TSA is supporting the British Freestyle Snowboard Team, for every TSA board bag that we sell we will donate a percentage of the price to help train and coach some of the best of Britain’s up and coming freestyle talent. With Slopestyle becoming part of the next winter Olympics the British team are at last in a position to really challenge for medals, with 3 times X Games Slopestyle winner Jenny Jones, wunderkid Jamie Nicholls and Aimee Fuller all going for Slopestyle we have never had a better chance to take home gold. Add to that Ben Kilner fresh from his stunning 18th place at the last Olympics and it looks like Sochi 2014 could be historic games for Britain. However with Government cuts it looks like snowboarding will recieve no money from UK sport, if that is the case we as a sport have to raise the funds to help deliver the level of support and coaching that our riders need to fulfil the potential that they have. By buying a TSA board bag you will help contribute to supporting our riders for Sochi 2014.
a) TSA PROTECTOR BOARD CASE £50.00 Our best selling board bag offers stunning value for money. Constructed from a heavy duty Nylon and featuring full protective padding it is tough enough to handle just about anything an angry baggage handler can throw at it. For this season we have tweaked the dimensions making it deeper and wider giving more room internally and a better fit for boards with Burton Bindings fitted. Externally the Protector case features a large tool pocket and both shoulder strap and carry handles.

Well after lots of testing and sample making we finally came up with the EasyRyan board bag. This super light padded board bag comes in around 5kg lighter than our standard wheelie protector case. By selecting super light padding, an all new lightweight wheel system and coming up with a whole new method to give the bag rigidity we have created a super light bag that delivers all the protection of a standard padded board bag at a fraction of the weight.

BACKCOUNTRY
Off Piste and Backcountry Safety Equipment One of the greatest risks we face when riding off piste or out in the backcountry is that posed by avalanche. The majority of avalanche victims are caught in avalanches that have been triggered by themselves or their companions. Statistics show that in the event of an avalanche burial, the buried victim’s greatest chance of survival is to be located and uncovered within 15 minutes. With the average call out time for an official search and rescue team to arrive on location and begin searching at around 30 to 40 minutes it is apparent that the avalanche victim’s greatest chance of survival is through an efficient and rapid search and rescue operation provided by the victim’s properly equipped and prepared companions on location. The minimum requirements for riding in the backcountry are a transceiver, shovel and probe. There are some scary statistics that show search and rescue times for locating and uncovering an avalanche victim under 1 metre of snow by teams with: A. Only a transceiver – 60 plus minutes B. A transceiver and a shovel – 26 minutes C. Transceiver and probe – 50 minutes D. Transceiver, shovel and probe – 16 minutes You can see just how important the magic three items are. Don’t venture out there without them! Transceiver. An avalanche Transceiver is a transmitter and receiver set to a common frequency of 457kHz. In the hands of an experienced and practiced user an avalanche transceiver can be a very reliable and efficient method of locating buried avalanche victims, (also wearing avalanche transceivers) and in the event of an avalanche burial it is by far the victims’ best and often only chance of survival. Modern digital transceivers provide information on distance, direction and even identify how many victims are buried and where they are individually located. These new models aren’t fool proof however and practice is as always the key. The real event of an avalanche is not the time to try out your transceiver for the first time. A transceiver is only ever as good as the person using it. Many resorts now have ‘free to use’ special practice areas with multiple permanently buried beacons. Make this your first stop before you head beyond the boundary, practice makes perfect!
dictates that you’ll immediately be riding in an un-patrolled area on an un-controlled snow pack of which you might know very little about. The risks involved in straying away from the controlled areas of the mountain are very real indeed and off piste ‘Backcountry Snowboarding is all about exploring and riding the and backcountry safety relies on good decision making that is mountain’s natural terrain in an endless search for that ultimate determined by your personal assessment of the terrain, the descent.

Shovel. Most shovels are collapsible, extendible and fold to a compact stowable size. Always carry your shovel blade and handle inside your backpack. Many packs are designed with loops on the outside for your shovel but in the event of a fall during the day these items can be ripped off and lost. Metal shovels are far better than plastic. Probe. Probes are easily collapsible and extendable poles used for locating a buried avalanche victim before the shovelling begins. A practiced probing pattern should be used rather than a random attack of the victim’s signal location. Probes come in different sizes with around 2 meters best for everyday off piste riding. Again, keep your probe inside your backpack and not on the outside! Travelling In The Backcountry Were as some nice off piste snow can be found via a quick duck under the boundary rope, accessing the mountain’s true backcountry terrain is normally slightly more involved and hiking equipment is necessary for either access or exit and probably both. There are currently two options: Snowshoes. In the Alps where above the tree line the mountains are steep and barren, a strong rugged set of snowshoes with good crampons underneath are required. Metal crampon spikes and rails underneath are essential for climbing steep slopes and for traversing on an angle and a heel raiser is useful to eliminate calf burn on long ascents. Split Boards. The advantages of the split board are numerous when it comes to touring out into the backcountry. Not carrying your board on your pack when hiking and no need for snowshoes on your back when riding are the most obvious but also the ability to slide your feet rather than lift and step when breaking trail through deep untracked snow make the distances you can cover for less effort a major advantage. The whole set up process for touring or back to riding can be performed within minutes. The new technology split board is rapidly becoming the backcountry enthusiast’s most essential weapon. Trekking Poles. A pair of collapsible walking poles is essential kit for a day in the backcountry and often useful for pushing on long easy angled valley exits or short hikes were snowshoes aren’t needed. Backpack. There are many snowboard specific backpacks on the market designed for the different aspects of off piste and backcountry riding. My advice is to think simple and light. Your pack needs to fit your kit inside easily and carry your board effectively whilst being snug to your back and comfortable to wear. If you’re going to carry a drinking bladder make sure the tube is well insulated or better still inside the sleeve of your backpack shoulder strap. Blow air into the tube after drinking and pay attention to it in cold extremes.

Ortovox S1+ Transceiver £349.99
Mammut Pulse Barryvox £349.99
BCA DTS Tracker Transceiver £224.99
The 3+ is a 3-antenna transceiver that is super simple to use and processes information fast. The circular display clearly guides you at each stage of a search promoting fast recoveries even when faced with multiple burials. The 3+ features Smart Antenna technology, which enables the unit to recognise the position it is in and automatically switch to the antenna that offers the best signal for searching transceivers to pick up. All this clever technology is housed in an ergonomic, rubberised case delivering functional performance and a sharp aesthetic.
Regardless of whether you end up above or under the snow following an avalanche, the new S1+ from Ortovox makes the most out of the situation. Buried under an avalanche it will help you to be found easier thanks to its Smart Antenna Technology; above an avalanche the display gives you full control of the search situation so that you can find victims quicker. The S1+’s intuitive search mode is activated by simply flipping open the unit and it’s then just a case of following the clear on screen instructions. Smart Antenna technology enables the unit to recognise the position it is in and automatically switch to the antenna that offers the best signal for searching transceivers to pick up.
The Pulse Barryvox is an accurate 3-antenna transceiver that offers users the choice of either a basic or advanced user profile, giving the option to customise the information supplied. The basic profile has been designed to be simple and easy to use, while the advanced profile gives the option of both digital and analogue modes as well as manual options for multi-burial scenarios. Additionally in the advanced mode you can take advantage of the ‘vital data’ that the Pulse can detect and transmit to other Pulse units. The Pulse has highly sensitive sensors that detect subtle motion of the body and transmit this info to compatible units. Pulse units receiving this info then categorises multiburials in terms of survivability, the idea being that you prioritise victims showing signs of life.
The DTS Tracker has revolutionised the avalanche transceiver industry. The Tracker’s digital beacon uses a dual receiving antenna to capture the victim’s signal, interprets it with its microprocessor then visually displays the distance and direction to the victim. It really is that simple - no steep learning curves, no convoluted search patterns, no earphones, no guesswork - just fast, accurate, life saving information. Batteries: 3 AAA alkalines. Battery life: minimum one hour in search mode after 200 hours in transmit (approx 250 hours transmit only or 50 hours search only).

If you spend a lot of time riding deep snow in variable and wet conditions and hike in the backcountry a lot then you need a fabric with a high waterproof & breathable rating. If your aspirations are less extreme and you rock the resorts a couple of times a season and play on the pistes and lift accessible off piste, then you can rely on any of the clothing in our range to deliver the performance and looks that you’ll want.

Snowboarders have burnt the bright and plundered the mountaineering and workwear back catalogue in a celebration of all things earthy, natural and worn!

Over the years it’s always been the annoying punky kid on the corner whilst quietly making better and better clothing for its board riding buddies. Now a loud and irreverent establishment voice within big business skate, surf & snowboarding, Volcom is still serious about not taking anything serious. Its new snow line is loud and in your face‌ and built to ride in the harshest winter conditions.
