Welcome to our spring/summer 2016 lookbook, packed with stunning highlights from our brand new collection. The following pages introduce you to some of this season’s best products, and the latest innovations from the world’s leading outdoor brands.
You can finally see what we got up to in South Africa on the Spring/Summer 16 photoshoot! It’s very exciting to see the end result of a rad two weeks with an amazing team and location!
All-Mountain? Freeride? Freestyle? Splitboard? Here's how to choose your perfect snowboard, based on the terrain you want to tackle.
“In 2016, snowboards come in all shapes and sizes, and buying one can often feel like a mammoth task. So how do you wade through the different swallow tails, sidecuts and camber types to find your perfect board? Snow+Rock Social Exec Daisy Maddinson breaks down the different styles based on the terrain that you want to tackle, to help you get the most out of your snowboarding..”
Insanely cool!!
Sports bras prevent breast pain and damage while boosting performance and form. Brooks and Professor Joanna Scurr show us the science and how to choose.
On Wednesday I went to bra fit school (..yes you read that correctly!) and leant about how important it is to support those assets! Read my latest blog for Runners Need on the science behind sports bras, why and how to choose one and what to look for in the fit.
This Half Term, whether your kids ski or snowboard, ensure they are toasty, dry and protected with our definitive school holidays winter sports kit list.
Keep those lickle ones warm this winter!

An amazing two week trip to South Africa...
So recently I was lucky enough to be chosen to coordinate all of the product for the Spring Summer catalogue photoshoot for all three facias of the Snow+Rock group: Snow+Rock, Cycle Surgery and Runners Need. I was tasked with organising all of the samples, shipping them to SA and sorting them for each days shooting, I also assisted on model castings, location reccys and styling.
We shot at some incredible locations, and I was completely overwhelmed by the scale and beauty of the landscapes. South Africa truly has it all - lush greenery, stunning coastlines, urban cityscapes and arid farmlands - you can see why it’s such a hugely population shoot location! I really have to thank the awesome production team, colleagues from snow+rock and the models for making it such a great experience, and I hope I get to be involved in more exciting projects like this one going forward! Can’t wait to see the outcome of all our hard work!
Where can skiers and snowboarders find the finest powder? Snow+Rock's Daisy Maddinson lists 3 of the snowiest resorts of winter 2016.
”With near-continuous snowfall across the Alps in the last few weeks (and even a dusting on UK soil), everyone’s talking about the white stuff, but where can skiers and snowboarders find only the finest powder?

The new Vans by Vault collaboration with Taka Hayashi and his exclusively designed Pendleton wool is so great! The shoes are super preedy, but for me the blanket is an absolute show stealer! Check it out the full collection here:

the good life
French doctors are prescribing surfing courses in Biarritz to combat depression.. I think it’s a bloody marvellous idea! There’s nothing quite so “feel good” as the high you get from standing up on your first wave, and catching a break all the way into the beach. For those active in the sport, many would say surfing is already their form of therapy, giving their souls some stoke! ...and who knows, maybe this will start a revolution of mainstream surfing!

// Indonesia
So this summer I finally did something that’s been top of my to-do list for the past couple of years.. I spent some time travelling Indonesia, soaking up Balinese life and immersing myself in the culture of surf and well-being that has become symbiotic of the laid back lifestyle out there.
This trip has so many highlights for me - swimming with mantas, meeting a bunch of radical chicks, surfing the best waves of my life, eating the most amazing food, connecting my soul through meditation - but topping the lot was the way I was able to free myself of negativity and learn to embrace the good life. These beautiful tropical islands are so much more than a stretch of beach to ironically drink coconuts on (which by the way are delicious); they have a real spirit and friendliness to them, making their lifestyle so appealing that you could easily stop for months at a time and never grow tired of the sunsets.
My first stop was Lombok. Hopping over to the Gili Islands, I had my first taste of Indonesian street food, my first snorkel sighting of a turtle and my first encounter of the local boats (i.e. how many people can you cram onto one small wooden boat without it sinking?!). After relaxing on the pristine white sands and being humbled by the friendly staff at La Boheme hostel, we made a short journey across to Bali, our home for the next month.
Bali is unlike anywhere i’ve ever been. It’s acts as a complete mash up of the traditional Balinese life and values, the vibrancy of the undeniably epic surf scene, and the sleek stylised nature of westernised culture. For a large majority of our time on Bali we stayed around the Canggu area as the waves were a bit smaller than the famous Uluwatu breaks but still offered us a great base for trips around the rest of the island. One such trip took myself and Franzi up to famed hippy central Ubud; whilst Ubud is a crazy thriving Indonesian city full of traffic and markets, it has pockets of serenity and we soon found ourselves on a self-titled “healing journey”. We ate amazing vegan food at The Fussy Bird, scrummy accia bowls at Alchemy and incredible coconut iced lattes at The Coconut Shop. As well as eating nourishing food, we nourished our souls at Yoga Barn, a beautiful treetop space for vinyasa and hatha classes. I also took part in my first ever guided meditation session which completely blew my mind. It really opened me up to connecting with my soul and releasing negativity.
Surfing took up a lot of the trip, and was the main reason for the adventure. The lure of those perfect sets and warm green waters is enough to make anyone get in the line up! That said, Indonesia was my first time getting back in the water since a traumatic experience when I was fourteen, and the first few sessions were really difficult for me. Our amazing guide Chok at balilovesurfing made a huge difference and I finally feel more comfortable in the water again. Of all the breaks we surfed, my favourite was a reef break by the airport landing strip. Getting a boat out to the spot and just sitting in the ocean whilst planes landed and took off right by us was completely surreal!! Being surrounded by the chilled surf vibes of Bali has only made my love of the boardsports industry even stronger, and definitely enthused me to embrace surf and wellbeing culture even more.
Our travels were rounded up by a few days on the stunning Nusa Lembongan, where we wandered around the back tracks of traditional villages and enjoyed some quiet down time. Not only did we love the landscape and sunset views, but our underwater views whilst snorkelling were unbelievable. I’ve never seen reef so vibrant and fish so colourful; and swimming with not one but two manta rays was an awe-inspiring end to a soul enriching trip!
My only regret is time. I just wanted more! So it’s safe to say i’ll be heading back to Indonesia to see more off the beaten track sights and swells in the future.
I think it’s fair to say i’m probably in that 20 percent...
