Snow report + ski offers

The Weardale Ski Club Ltd

Well what a shame we missed out on the snow this weekend. Nothing fell in Weardale yet out on the coast there was 3 to 4 inches. Still there is more forecast mid week so fingers crossed. As you can see from the webcam there is still plenty there though very patchy but an excellent base for when more comes.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank all those who sent photos for the Newsletter that should be coming back from the printers in the next few days and winging its way through the post to all members. There were some superb photos and many lovely action shots that would grace any ski magazine. We were however looking for photos that demonstrated Weardale skiing and have chosen several that give a true feel for WSC. Sorry if your photo was not included this time but may appear in future newsletters and again thanks to all for your contributions. If you have a good photo you are happy to share with us then please keep sending them in - we can use them on the website and have a good archive of photos over the years to which we keep adding more to.

If you are thinking about buying some new skis then Anthony Reynolds from Reynolds Outdoor Centre, Sunderland - www.reynoldsoutdoorcentre.co.uk - has some great offers on Salomon skis below - hurry before they have gone - I have just bought myself some Streetracers complete with bindings for £99 brand new

We also have Salomon ladies and gents ski boots from £75 although they are a mix of sizes and models.

If you want some cheap second hand skis then look no further than Swiss Tim in South Shields - http://www.swisstimsskis.com/ - he has a collection of second hand reburbished skis and boots for next to nothing and the best part is that he will sell on your old skis + boots if you want - great when your children just keep growing.

All kitted up now, just have to wait for the next lot of the white stuff to fall.
