It’s possible. Very possible – thanks to Maverix’s plans for Les Deux Alpes this summer.

Powderroom caught up with Maverix founder James Streater and a couple of his coaches, Thom Boddington and Rachel Elliott, to get the low-down on still getting your snow fix when many Alpine resorts have gone into hibernation.

In short, the crew have commandeered a luxury chalet in the centre of resort for three weeks from June 13. 

Just when you thought the fun was over, Girls Academy at Sno!zone Milton Keynes have announced that they're pushing on with their monthly women-only nights - and it's thanks to the amazing support you ladies have given them over the summer.

Girls Academy - spearheaded by a team of female boarding coaches at the centre - started in the summer and was supposed to finish, well, about now.

But, with up to 40 girls travelling from far and wide to join the sessions, the team are frothing on the success and detrmination of their riders and have decided to push on into the winter months.
