Skiing - It's not just for Winter!

Most people believe that skiing is for Winters only but for those enthusiasts who have tucked their skis away until next season - think again. There is plenty of skiing and snowboarding to be found in both Northern and Southern Hemispheres - here are a few ideas for an action-packed Summer.

Summer Courses on European Glaciers
For those looking to brush up ski or snowboard technique an instruction course is the best option - chose from The British Freeski camps www.britishfreeskicamps.com based in Saas Fee; Snoworks technical courses in Tignes, www.snoworks.co.uk; Racing camps with Dissent Ski in Tignes - www.dissent-ski.com

Summer Courses in New Zealand
For the more adventurous try a freeskiing course or heli skiing in New Zealand - www.warrensmith-skiacademy.com.
Several ski/ snowboard instructor courses also run in the New Zealand resorts. For those looking to come away with an instructors qualification - www.snowskool.com, www.skiinstructortraining.co.nz, www.peakleaders.com. www.rookieacademy.com, www.basecampgroup.com

Skiing in South America
Although most people think of the heat when they think about South America, both Chile and Argentina have some of the world's best skiing. You can take organised trips to both countries with www.snoworks.co.uk or www.andes.org.uk

And not to forget that in the UK we have three of our own indoor snow slopes offering a variety of lessons and courses on real snow all year round - the Ski Club of Great Britain website www.skiclub.co.uk has a comprehensive list and map of all the UK slopes.

If that's not enough to tempt you and your skis are staying hidden for the summer months remember the Ski Club still has masses of benefits valid for its members during the summer i.e. airport parking, great value and excellent cover holiday insurance, discounts off holidays booked with Crystal, Neilson, First Choice, Mark Warner and more. Join the Club at www.skiclub.co.uk. Membership from £16.

Ski Club of Great Britain offers all this information and more on its website www.skiclub.co.uk - the first port of call for skiers and snowboarders all year round.
