LE BENT PARTNERS WITH CHICK WITH STIX

14.07.2015

We are proud to be partnering up with Australia's grass roots organisation, Chicks with Stix. Chicks with Stix is an on-snow programme that encourages girls to learn new skills in skiing and snowboarding, offering opportunities to shred with the best snow-sports athletes in Australia. Girls improve their skills in bumps, freeride, slopestyle and big mountain, in a supportive and fun environment.

 

Chicks with Stix runs FREE ski and board sessions throughout the Australian Alps with Australia’s most experienced female freestyle and freeride coaches. (Check their events page for up coming sessions). They are powered 100% by volunteers, from coaches, to admin, designers and PR managers. 

Chicks with Stix provides an outlet for self-expression, social connection, self esteem and fitness. And damn do they have some serious fun at the same time!
