Tuesday 15th April – The 2008 British Snowboard and Freeski Tour returns this summer, announcing six new dates, introducing a brand new venue and continuing to represent and showcase the highest level of Snowboard and Freeski competition in the UK.

New to the British Snow Tour, Halifax Ski and Snowboarding Centre will join the list of existing and successfully tested venues: Chatham, Norfolk, Castleford, Milton Keynes and Glasgow for 2008.
