THRILLSEEKERS from Honiton took to the slopes for a cool challenge on the Austrian slopes.

Students from Honiton Community College showcased their skills during the week-long ski trip in the resort of Zell am See, in Austria.

Those involved enjoyed some thrills and spills trying out tricks, with some even plucking up the courage to take on the Olympic downhill piste.

They were also given the opportunity to meet with students from Queen Elizabeth College in Crediton.

The students competed in races with Corrie Payne and Alex Cave holding their own by winning their categories.
