Shredding The Way


Shredding The Way

Budding young snowboarders get off to a well coached start at Mt Hutt Ski Area today (Wednesday 14 July) in the second of the mountain’s BWMsnow Shredders Camp.

The new half day intensive programme introduces 4-9 yr olds to snowboarding with individual attention and basic technical skills and drills on the slopes.

Mt Hutt Snowsports School Manager Dave Grogan said: “There’s been a great improvement amongst today’s mini-riders. Pretty soon we’ll have a whole bunch of pros out there on the mountain.”`
