THE SHEFFIELD FREEZE

03 June 2003


The Sheffield Freeze took place last weekend, with some stunning freeriding and incredible talent on display. The competition is mainly jam format, with slopestyle, half-pipe and sections.

UK Freestyle Mecca
Sheffield's Ski Village has long been committed to the progress of jumping and jibbing progenies. Aside from their massive water aerials jump, the Village lays claim to the only half-pipe and the only full-time rainbow rail in the country. When you ride or ski there you also have the opportunity to ride one of the biggest and best big air tabletops and quarter-pipes around.
