A good day at The Lecht

11:04AM Wed, 20th February 2013

Despite the recent, well-publicised issues with its lift systems, The Lecht in Scotland is still a damn fine resort, and this winter boasts one of the finest and best maintained park setups in the country.

OK so it’s never going to look like Mammoth Mountain or a Breckenridge (you’d need Colorado or Cali-style snowfalls for that sort of thing) but those kickers there are pretty sick. I mean, when the locals are boosting front rodeo 7s off them you can’t really complain, can you?

Here’s a bunch of photos shot by Frazer Rennie from the session:

Tristan first stepped on a snowboard at the age of 12, and (despite being a bit rubbish) has made a point of riding as often as possible since. He joined Whitelines in 2009, and writes, shoots, films and edits for both the magazine and the website. Having headed up the team in charge of the Whitelines Buyers' Guide for the past four seasons knows more about the geeky side of snowboard kit than anyone should ever have to know.
