Vår vision är att samla alla outdoor- och extremsportintresserade personer i Uppsala för att tillsammans arrangera olika event. Uppsala extremsportförening, UppX, är en ideell studentförening vars syfte är att sammanföra såväl utövare och intresserade för att tillsammans testa på olika typer av extremsporter och outdooraktiviteter. Aktiviteter som kommer att anordnas kan bland annat vara skidåkning, klättring, vindsurfing, kajakpaddling, cykling, vandring och wakeboard, allt från eftermiddagsaktiviteter till längre resor. Föreningen riktar sig främst till studenter men är öppen för alla. Tanken är att ge alla våra medlemmar, proffs som nybörjare, möjligheten att prova på olika alternativa sporter, lära känna likasinnade och förhoppningsvis få en adrenalinkick i studentvardagen.

The idea is to give all our members, professionals and beginners, the opportunity to try different alternative sports, get to know like-minded people and hopefully get our daily dose of adrenaline.

⛷️ Preliminary Sign-Up: Sälen Ski Weekend (Dec 3-6)!

Hi everyone!

The winter season is approaching, and we are planning a trip to Sälen for the legendary Skidtestarhelgen (Ski Test Weekend) from December 3rd to 6th! This is a great weekend to hit the slopes early and test out the newest ski and snowboard gear for free.

Our main goal is to book a bus for the trip. However, if we end up being too few people, we will have to look into other alternatives like renting minibuses or carpooling. To figure out the best option, we need to know exactly how many of you are coming.

⚠️ Important about this sign-up:
Even though this is a ”preliminary” sign-up, please only sign up if you actually intend to go. We will book vehicles based on these numbers, and we don’t want to end up in a tough spot having to pay for empty seats later.

Quick details:
* Dates: Thursday, Dec 3 – Sunday, Dec 6.
* Estimated price: Around 3500 SEK (including transport, accommodation, and ski pass). Please note that the final price may vary slightly depending on how many people attend.
* Accommodation: We will be staying together in cabins.
Sign up on Orbi! Link in bio.
Let’s kick off the ski season together! ❄️
