Hello to one and all, glad tidings and good news I bring about your favourite time of year. Yes that’s right folks, it’s the SheffSki Summer Holiday, back once again for more fun and frivolity!!! This year we will be returning to our favourite festival Beach Break Live. If you’re wondering what all the fuss is about just check out the line up shown below on the banner…
So what does Beach Break have to offer?
Well other than the amazingly unreliable sunny weather and awesome tunes we should also mention that we’ll be residing in Pembrey Country Park which is a truly stunning place to be with both forest and beach to keep you entertained in between acts if booze or food isn’t your thing.
There’s also a fairground for you to get your teeth stuck into as well that runs late into the night, it include dodgems that are a must at midnight and also some crazy spinners of death that are not for the faint hearted or paralytic.
If that ain’t your thing there’s also loads of stuff to get involved in such as oxygen bars and biking displays as well as many other things which I just don’t have the time to describe or list… Just take it as a given that there’s something for everyone to do there… FACT!!!
If you’re still unsure just look at the video below…
Can I ski at Beach Break though?
Well as you may have seen in the video the answer is yes you can. During Beach Break the gauntlet is thrown down and the competition known as ‘stick it or lick it’ is unleashed. This is a BUSC run freestyle event that involves a couple of tonnes of imported snow a set up to rival a Castleford freestyle night, you have a snow kicker set up on the dry slope ready and waiting to be used and abused by any that dare throw down some gnarly tricks. Those that win reap the reward and have a huge stash showered upon them.
If your interested in competing please contact us at: skiclub@shef.ac.uk and we’ll get right back to you.
I still want to win without skiing, is there any way to do that?
Yes there is, you may have seen people in sumo suits in the video, and that was a brief glimpse at some of the competitions you can take part in to win the Beach Break Celtic Games. This is a team event in which you take part in challenges that rival valley ralley in ridiculousness from team sumo wrestling to human pyramid challenges. Again if you win the rewards are great, potentially a £500 bar tab for the winning team…
What’s the accommodation like?
It’s not as glamorous as it has been in the past unfortunately, but there’s always much fun to be had when camping with SheffSki that’s for sure… (Just ask people who went last year for the juicy gossip details
How do we get there?
We usually make our own way to the festival either by train or car, however, there are buses available from Sheffield run by Beach Break that will get you to the festival and back for around £50. Remember to ask around for a lift or train buddy before getting the coach if you want to have loads of SheffSki fun on the way to and from Beach Break.
The End?
Not quite, firstly we hope we’ve answered most of your questions with all the information above, if not please email us at: skiclub@shef.ac.uk and we’ll get right back to you.
