This year the Southampton University Ski and Snowboard Club ventured to Les Arcs for their annual winter trip.

370 people tackled the 18 hour coach journey to Les Arcs, France, for a fun filled week of snow, skiing and Sambuca.

After giving him some time to recover, we spoke to Nick Smith, President of SUSSC:

Les Arcs was Southampton’s biggest and fastest selling trip in recent years. We were super proud to achieve this as a committee.

With over 60 coming for a group ski, the most exciting socials (shout out to Eton Messy), and the unforgettable mountain meal – Les Arcs was definitely one of our top trips to date.

We apologise for mother nature’s poor snow choice, and a slight delay on the ferry with Christmas traffic. I wish we could have avoided either of these as much as you!

Whether you want to re-live the memories or see what really happens on ski trip, we’ve selected the best pics from this year’s trip for you to enjoy.

There was also some fun off the slopes…

The obligatory scenic shots…

Until next year…

Looks like you all had an absolute ball!

Here are a final few words from Nick;

Massive thanks to the 370 who came. You made these socials huge, the skiing fantastic and the NUCO staff complimentary about Southampton. So, thank you!

Be sure to check out our Val Thorens Easter trip for a sunnier, and (hopefully) more snow-driven, experience. Launching soon!
