Review
"Beginner or expert snowboarder, if you're planning a trip of any kind the WSG should not be ignored", SKI & BOARD MAGAZINE, November 2005 "The original snowboard-specific guidebook remains the best of the bunch, with resort news, views and travel tips from a 100 per cent snowboard perspective - you wouldn't ask a skier the best place to ride a mountain, so why let one help you choose where to go in the first place? More than 500 pages of information written for snowboarders, by snowboarders and the best snowboard guidebook money can buy", DOCUMENT SNOWBOARD MAGAZINE, December 2005."

Terrific general reference guide, but the reviews could do with a bit of an up date.

As a snow border I'd always bemoaned the fact that all the guidebooks seemed to be written by a bunch of elitist skiers. So I was overjoyed to discover the WSG back in 2004
I've bough a couple of editions of this book and it is well worth the money if your planning a boarding holiday and need some general advice on a resort. Like all travel guides certain entries are a little wide of the mark or at worst omit fundamental pieces of information, but on the whole the guide covers the key topics about a wide range of resorts.
Unfortunately, much of the information in this guide has not been updated for about three years - the vast majority of entries in my original 04 edition are the same as the current edition. The only discernable difference seems to be some colour photos and slightly updated graphics.
Obviously most of the resorts remain the same, but things do change and it would have been nice for WSG to move with the times.
Still, don't be put off a purchase. If you need an all purpose guide to planning a trip this is as good a place as any to start.
