Thank U Snowboarding S1 - Ep 2 - Melanie Leando

A great catch up with an old friend, Melanie entered the scene in the late 90's quickly establishing herself as an outstanding snowboarder, making a mark on the UK scene and the worldwide competition circuit. We also chatted about what snowboarding means to her now, and lots of other things, a real nice ramble-y chat this one. Hope you enjoy it.


In this episode we talked about local scenes including the Snowdomes, or snow centres, so here is a few links:


Hemel: https://www.thesnowcentre.com/

Milton Keynes: https://snozoneuk.com/

Tamworth: https://www.snowdome.co.uk/

Castleford: https://xscapeyorkshire.co.uk/attractions/snozone


Will please someone build one near Brighton?


Also, as I mentioned, this podcast is supported by The Snowboard Asylum (TSA) so you should definitely check them out if looking for gear, they have been in the game since the beginning, is run by snowboarders, has more knowledge than anyone and will sort you out with what you need... check them at

And, of course, The Reason magazine, still putting together a beautiful tome to get you hyped for snowboarding, again, by snowboarders, for snowboarders:

and of course, shred flick of the week is Afterlame, the third in a series from Robot Food and in my opinion, the best. If this doesn't want to make you go snowboarding, I don't know what will:
