Hi everyone!

I started snowboarding about 2 months ago and have recently completed all the lessons from Stage 1 to Stage 5 at The Snow Centre Manchester (formerly Chill Factore).

My instructor recommended getting a lift pass so I could practise on my own. However, the monthly lift pass currently costs around £150, which seems quite expensive.

I’m planning to go snowboarding once or twice a week, mainly on weekends, for around 2–3 hours each time. I also plan to keep going for several months, not just one.

I’m considering getting an annual membership for the 30% discount on monthly lift passes, but I’m wondering if there’s a cheaper option.

I have a few questions:

Is an annual membership + monthly lift pass the cheapest option for someone who goes regularly?

Has anyone managed to combine the 30% membership discount with additional promo codes? I’ve received a 30% discount code and I’m wondering if both discounts can be applied.

I usually go with a friend, and we both have our own snowboarding gear.…
