So you might wonder what the Mint team are up to in the warm up to winter? Well, in his own words, here is the latest from our new snowboard instructor Lewis Sonvico:

“Well that was fun… had a little skate then off to the Burton Hi5 2011 at Hemel Freestyle and ended up coming 1st. Super stoked! Followed by a rad night out in watty with the lads and then a skate to finish off. Good times.“

We hope you agree, that’s a pretty impressive result for the final leg of the Burton Hi5 Tour, held at Hemel Hempstead Snow Centre last night. The Hi5 Tour has been hitting the UK fridges all autumn… nice one Lewis!

Come out to the Portes du Soleil resorts of Morzine, Avoriaz, Chatel & Les Gets to get the best in freestyle snowboarding coaching from Lewis & the team from Mint Snowboarding!

Here are some photos of Lewis in action at the Burton Hi5 last night (thanks to SCUK):

As mentioned in our previous blog post, Mint Snowboarding instructor Tammy was at the Castleford Sno!zone last Saturday for the TSA Big Bang event to join in the coaching team. Here are a bunch of photos from the girls freestyle session she coached with Roxy rider Aimee Fuller.

Well done to all the girls who were there… great progression from all and some rad talent was shining through!
