I wish I though of the run to Guthega now ! D'oh.
How did Ben's return to the mountain go ? What a nice way to return .....
btw. is the new Powder in Pitt St Borders ?
Ben's return was pretty good, probably only cartwheeled about 20 times. His friend Fi double backflipped down Rock Garden and managed to keep riding!
Yep ,we did Back of Summit twice and each runs was fantastic.
As of Friday the new Powder was not at Boarders.
Will let you know quietly if I see it during the week.
Doesnt mean I cant ski =)Quote:

And yes, the Gotama's do put up a nice spray - fukker =)
I was a piking little Biatch and he came home on saturday night. The week really took it out of me skiing through all that wet glop and several other contributing factors. I felt like I couldn't ski to save my life after that . Sooo much snow , although no energy, Oh well, well on my way to 100 days+ this season so I quess its gonna catch up sometime. Psyched for this weekend but. It sounds like you guys where really ripping PB a new bung-hole from all accounts.
Some digi cam movies from the weekend.

Nice work, SB!! Showing Oz conditions at their finest.
I take it the movies worked then, I have no idea as we can't view movies here at work.
Glad you liked, tjb was going even harder - best on ground performance for the day was his first run down Rock Garden including the drop at the top - which I pussied out of twice during the day.
:)
Yeah, he can " Step it up" when he wants to TJB, no one horse pony there. He was pretty stoked re: Sunday which may explain it. Just wish I had some Film of it .
I heard Selwyn was rocking harder on Sunday than Perisher ever has!
Janus - you check the movies yet mate?
BUMP!!
Some more Main Range goodness

Yeah, Beaver, I've got the vids on my computer, they're sweet, those Gotama's don't sink much do they! Love it!
Yep - for sure!Quote:

3Decks and his (girl)friend :p want to gap jump Charlottes Pass?
Could be good for some October action.
Are you refering to the Roadgap at Charlotte Pass as featured in Powderhound, or the road to Charlottes just up from the Eyre T-bar??
I'm thinking I will start with just the road out from Eyre. :D
That Powderhound article was unreal though.
D'oh!, I was wanting to get some shots of the BIG gap!! Oh well just have to wait.
I still need two good knees for Japan!
But think about the GLORY, SB!!!

Im (hopefully)riding this weekend if your going to be about Tim.
Im back under the xray machine this week - Mmmm more radiation... looks like Ive fractured a hand - at basketball of all places!
These injuries are getting ridiculous
You are one HELL of a photog, Beav. The shots you take and the ones you pull from that mate of yours just make my night. Thanks for the heads up on the videos. They are EXACTLY what I needed! :D I can feel myself making your turns. It makes me remember just how it feels to be in there shredding the freshies. GLORIOUS!
Nice, man. Get out there and finish the season with a bang!
There was much representation by the brother and I, over the weekend and Monday. Awesome spring conditions and still great skiing over the whole mountain. Didn't get snotty at all , just great corn , fast groomers and slushy bumps. I'm sure Tjb will post more shots to keep the stoke level rising.
Nice vest! I see he's been raiding the St Vinnie's bin! :DQuote:

Thredbo, bringing Tartan, knitted vests to a mountain near you!!. He's even co-ordinated the vest to match his Toque/ Beanie , thats hard core!!
Max, whilst I have taken quite a few of the photo's in this thread, I think shots you are referring to (the good ones) aren't taken by me.Quote:

Glad to hear you were representing on the weeknd fella's.
I'm back in action again this weekend - hope you are around.
This thread is great. Thank you SB (and other Aussie guys)
Seems like you've had (or are still having) the winter of the century!
I have couple of friends living in Sydney...I've promised millions times to visit them someday. I only think that if I'm going there it should be for at least a month...or better yet for two-three months...
well, maybe some day...
Have a great spring skiing there mates!
