Its fair to say that Stu Brass has lived many lives in snowboarding, from grom riding with his brothers Si and Russ up at Rossendale, to working for the British Snowboarding Association, to running comps to organising events, most motably The Brits, the yearly get together for the UK snowboarding community.

In my mind, Stu has always been fairly business like in his snowboarding, but I guess it takes some drive to acheive what he has acheived, he helped athletes cross over into the mainstream, and certainly most snowboarders he helped earned way more out of the wider worlds interest into our sport/lifestyle than they would have if they didn't have Stu representing them.

But, like most of us, its done out of pure love for standing sideways and sliding down a mountain, which is something we can all agree is the most fantastic thing.

British snowboarding owes Stu a pint for keeping the community together, even when the chips were down, even hosting The Brits up in Cairngorm, which, must have been a gamble in these times. Fair play to you Stu and I'm gonna see you in Mayerhofen for this years!
