Skiers and boarders now have a quick and easy way to pass on unwanted or grown out of kit that is cluttering up the attic and the cupboard under the stairs with ‘www.skicycle.co.uk’, a brand new online trading resource.

The idea is simple – if you’re feeling generous you just give your gear away, if you need the cash, then you sell it, either way skicycle.co.uk can help.  All you do is upload details of your gear on the easy to use website, add a picture then choose how long you want to advertise for. 

Veronica adds “There’s a lot of gear with skiing – and often a lot of wastage with people throwing away kit or not being able to pass it on easily.  This is great and reduces our consumption which is what Responsible Skiing encourages.   It also makes it easier for people to try out skiing without the expensive and potentially wasteful initial outlay.   For those items that no-one wants – like those narrow skis from the 90’s – we need to encourage ski manufacturers to offer the same kind of service like shops do for white goods, where they take your old products and re-use or recycle all the elements”.
