Rebellion: New era of indoor championships in UKBritish Snow Tour organisers are proud to reveal a new era of Indoor Championships called The Rebellion.  This is a competition course that boasts two distinct lines of rails and boxes running simultaneously, individual titles and a minimum of four hours slope time per rider. It promises to set the scene for the ultimate indoor rulers to emerge.

Revolutionize
The Rebellion is set to revolutionize snowboard & freeski warfare: the ‘Rail Slayer’ title will be awarded to those that deploy Jedi-like skills on the metal. The ‘Jib Master’ will go to those who can blow the box-zone to pieces. Only those who can conquer both zones can mount a realistic attack on the coveted British Indoor Championship title.

The action takes place at SNO!zone Castleford on Saturday 24th September, this is set to be the biggest showdown on the event calendar with British Championship medals to be earned, TTR world-ranking points to be gained, prize purse to be won and reputations to be forged - Let the battle commence!
