BRITS Heading Back To Laax

BRITS Heading Back To Laax

Published : 16-Nov-2009 06:48

The BRITS, the longest established winter festival for UK-based freeskiers and boarders in the Alps, is returning to the Swiss resort of Laax from the 21st - 28th March next year.

The week-long event combines eight British Snowboard and Freeski Championship events including the Animal Slopestyle, SNO!zone Halfpipe and Trespass Snowboard/Skiercross with non-stop music and parting.

Packages start from £230 per person including seven nights accommodation, seven days lift pass and an event pack containing an exclusive BRITS Ignite beanie and BRITS festival wristband, providing free entry to all of the club nights plus a bevy of discounts and event privileges.

There's a choice of hotels or apartments including the stylish Riders Palace and the brand new design hotel, Rocks Resort.

Some of the UK's top athletes including X-Games Gold medallist, Jenny Jones and Olympic hopefuls Ben Kilner and Zoe Gillings will be there along with budding amateurs, kids and rookies, giving all-comers the chance to compete for British titles and World-ranking points. All standards are welcome and competitors can pre-register online for any one or more disciplines.

For 2010 the organisers are adding more to the Après Sessions, including Home Run adrenaline-fuelled antics, Air Bag bravado, Highest Ollie posturing, free Demo Testing, plus live acoustic sets. The evening music menu will be covering all bases, with melodic flavours coming courtesy of internationally acclaimed solo artists, live bands and DJs that cross a spectrum of musical genres and styles.
