BECOME A STYLE PARTNER WITH STYLE ALTITUDE...

Since we launched STYLE ALTITUDE, the independent ski and snowboard website and online ski and snowboard magazine, nearly 10 years ago, it's been a steady climb uphill to establish a global audience, gain industry recognition and achieve top rankings on Google. 

Now STYLE ALTITUDE is #1 on Google with many of our GEAR REVIEWS and FEATURES, ranking above all other ski and snowboard digital sites. 

We also have 8 awards for our SKI BLOG, and the coveted accolade of Best Ski & Snowboard Publication UK. 

This success is like ripping off the skins, switching the bindings to downhill mode and hitting a powder bowl.

So we hope you'll join us for the ride. This is how:

AND TO ALL PRs:

We're delighted to hear from all PRs with relevant information about skiing, snowboarding or cycling. And, yes, we know you're (usually) not in control of the advertising budget.

But we'd love to work with you via PRODUCT TESTING where we will try out any gear actually on the mountains where we are based during the winter and summer seasons. On piste, off piste, slackcountry, backcountry and ski touring! Our crew are mostly sample size, men and women.

Also, we can run COMPETITIONS with the products you represent. This way, you have our attention and editorial coverage; we are able to offer quality prizes; and our followers can get their hands on free kit.

So a win, win, win.
