2025  THE CARVE CLUB  – BAQUEIRA
COURSE DATE:  26/01/25 – 01/02/25  PRICE: £1295.00  AVAILABILITY:  2 SPACES

The fine art of riding mountains begins and ends with the arc!

I’ve been practicing, analysing, dissecting and reconstructing the art of the arc on a snowboard for over 30 years. From world cup racer to professional freerider, from Snowboard Teacher to Backcountry Snowboard Guide, the incredible feeling of the perfect carve has always inspired my ride.

Join UIAGM snowboard Guide, Neil McNab for ‘The Carve Club’ for 5 days of high performance Freeride fun whilst exploring and shredding the fantastic terrain of Baquiera Beret in the Spanish Pyrenees.

It begins with that perfect roll onto the edge, feeling that first gentle bite into the curve, the edge tilt increases, the board flexes and the arc takes us, the drop of the hip, the burn in the legs as the power increases underfoot and everything races towards that final closing snap in the tail that releases us into greater possibility.

Throughout my Snowboarding journey it is the incredible feeling of the perfect carve that has always inspired my ride. My passion for the perfect turn runs deep, it fuels my hunger to climb mountains and ride back down them. It fuels my exploration of the mountains natural terrain, my search for perfectly shaped terrain in which to create new lines and challenge for a greater feeling in my riding. Sometimes this search takes me far into the mountains and to distant lands, but sometimes this  terrain can be found near at hand and is more easily accessed. In Baqueira Beret, incredible snowboard friendly terrain can be found, in abundance, right off the top of the lifts!

This is the never ending search for the perfect turn, the perfect line, the perfect feeling.

This  is the carve club

This 5 day course will help you understand the connection between the board beneath your feet, the natural movements of your body and the ultimate goal of riding the mountains natural terrain with speed, flow and creativity. All this whilst exploring the amazing terrain that Baquiera has to offer.
