Compete in a variety of events.
From skiing to snowboarding, there are a number of annual BUCS snowsports events which take place throughout the academic year.
One of the biggest events for students on the UK university sports calendar is the BUCS Dryslope Championships. The two-day competition sees students from universities across the UK compete in a range of different events that cater to different skill sets such as Alpine Ski Racing (Slalom, Giant Slalom) and Freestyle (Slopestyle and Big Air) where athletes perform acrobatic tricks and maneuvers.
The Dome Series consists of three indoor qualifying events which lead up to the fiercely contested Dome Series Finals, where the most talented students compete for gold. Five different disciplines are held over the course of the series, in two sporting styles: Skiing and Snowboarding. Disciplines include Ski Race, Snowboard Race, Ski Duals, Snowboard Duals, and Freestyle.
