Bugs will be re open this weekend as we have had a dry day yesterday and the forecast is good for Saturday and Sunday. All bookings will go ahead and we hope to see others there this weekend for a bit of fun too.

It’s now only 10 days till Bugsboarding re opens for the season. We have been working hard improving many areas of the hill and it’s now all coming together. New features in the freestyle park including a dirt half pipe and the boardercross track has been revamped to run faster.

As well as all this there is now a new beginners/juniors mini boardercross for all to try.
One of our team has created a Facebook event for the opening weekend so follow the link below and join us for the weekend.
