HUSKIS stands for Hertfordshire University Ski and Snowboard. If you enjoy skiing or snowboarding this is the club for you!
Over the past few years, Huskis has built up a reputation for being one of the most member orientated clubs within the university.
Every two weeks the Huskis show their stuff on the closest thing to snow that they can get, snow! The club travels up to Milton Keynes and have 3 hours on the slopes at a discounted price. Lessons are avaliable for those who can not already ski or snowboard, or need more practice. All in time to be able to handle the slopes for the HUSKIS tour.
The 2011 holiday will be in Val Thorens from 1-9 January 2011. It is the highest resort in Europe as well as forming part of the 3 vallées linked ski area which, is the second largest linked ski area in the world. This is always the highlight of the year by far.
The Huskis Club does not hold trials as it welcomes all levels of ability from complete beginners to advanced levels.
