Design and Win Your Own Pro Snowboard!

Ever fancied having your own pro snowboard? We don’t mean owning a board, as you probably already do; no we mean having your OWN pro snowboard, designed by you with your unique stamp and style on it. Well now could be your chance!

The UK’s premiere snowboarding and snow sports centre – The Snow Centre –and HEAD snowboards have come together to launch this competition for aspiring designers to create a truly unique snowboard design of their own and have it made into a one of a kind HEAD Transit snowboard. To sweeten the deal there will be a bunch of freestyle passes or lessons to give you the chance to put it to the test in one of the UK’s best snowboarding venues!

Judges will be looking for individuality, originality and flair; go wild with shapes and text and be vibrant with colours, let your imagination get a full grip and go for it! Speaking of judges it’s won’t be a bunch or corporate rank amateurs deciding who is the winner, for a start they have half-pipe specialist Dan Wakeham, the UK’s highest ranked snowboarder and the first British male snowboarders to compete in the Olympics (back in 2006). Along with Dan are the designers at free publication, Don’t Panic, The DWA (The Snow Centres park shapers and Diggers With Attitude) and Pete Gillespe, The Snow Centres director of snow sports.

So if you think you have what it takes to come up with a snowboard design this good, then just follow this link and best of luck to you! Full rules and all that can be found there along with the closing date (which is 24th November, in case you want to know if you still have time!).

For those who are looking for something slick, stylish but perhaps tad less individual, then check out www.s2as.com for our great range of snowboards, including names such as Ride, Rapture, Forum and K2
