The Metrosnow Ski and Snowboard Show, 20th-24th of October 2010, Olympia, London

The show this year was astounding, with more stands than you could visit, the Olympia exhibition hall was jam packed with fun. There was shop after shop with special deals on most of their stock, restaurants offering a flavour of many nations which hold ski resorts, big air competitions every hour, performances from the likes of The Feeling and Sophie Ellis Bextor, a live cooking show, land rover had an all terrain simulator and a skid pan so visitors could test their cars, there was a mountain theatre, a fashion show and even a slight husky lodge so you could get your photograph taken with some huskies.

If you view you were a crazy skier or snowboarder then you should have seen the Big Air competition, the guys and girls riding the dry slope were off the wall, pulling out 720's, back flips and rodeos like they were no tricky business. Undoubtedly a work that is not for the light hearted.

Aside from population spending a large amounts of time upside down, the Olympia was full of eager holiday makers, excited seasonaires and dedicated Skiers and Snowboarders as well and Sunshine World performed just as we did in Scotland, we unloaded all of our holiday cannons and opened fire on the unsuspecting public. Of course, the stand was marvelous with all of the tricks from Scotland but with the added bonus of some Dj's from the well established Smartie Partie organisation, pumping out not stop tune after tune and also, a brilliant backdrop designed and spray painted by the Graffiti Kings.

Once again Metrosnow pulled out the stops and blew us away, but we blew back as hard as we could and made a persisting impression to raise the bar for next year. Even if you do not ski or snowboard you should Undoubtedly make an appearance at next year's show just to see what all the fuss is about and to come see us.
