The annual Surbiton Ski Sunday and King’s Soup takes place at the end of September/beginning of October. Each year participants strap blocks of ice to their feet and attempt to ski down St Mark’s Hill in Surbiton which is transformed into a linoleum slope from 11:00 to 13:00 on Sunday. Robin Hutchinson MBE, an organiser of the event, said: “Skiing is primarily perused by the wealthy and what we wanted to do was revolutionise it to allow everybody a chance to do it. The scientific principle behind skiing is basically you put wood on your feet and you ski on snow or ice so we thought what happens if you put the ice on your feet, surely you could ski on anything.”
The ski aspect of the day ended with each team getting into a bathtub on ice blocks and pushed down the slope.
