Hey Guys

hope your keen,

its been raining all night and all day down here in vic (i live 1.5 hours from falls and Hothem)

looks like the forcest is good for this week, ill be heading up to falls Sat for the day if the snow keeps falling this week.

MZR360, i agree snow in AUS is **** compaired to Japan Canada US. but itll cost alot more to head over there.
On the other hand, i Skied Canada for 2 months and some of the best snow ive seen was at Falls in Victoria Last year. snowed about a foot for 3-4 days straight early in the season and got to Sat and drove up for the day. Even picked up some hitch hikers who paid for my petrol HAHA!

fortunatly for me i can just go for the day so its never **** just wait till friday if its snowing like crazy i just go. Sucks if you have to plan so far in advance.

Its been raining down here in Wangaratta for 3 days 13-15 cm at falls and hotham. Cant wait to hit falls on Sat.

Friends went last weekend and said it was awsome.

i went last season at around the end of july...

let me tell you thats been the best snow season weve had

alot of natural snow...not man made ice

it was great going from top of the mountain right to the bottom in good snow....

i went the year before that aswell....let me tell you that was a shocking season...we couldnt pick our own lines because there was only one way to get to the bottom ahah

I agree best snow ive seen in AUS was late July 07, the year before that was the worst year ive ever seen and to add to it id been in Canada for 2-3 months boarding. comeing home to the worst season yet sucked.

late july 07 was my best snow season here in Oz

but let me tell you in 06 it was the worst season ever by far! hardly any natural snow....only the hard ice what they call "snow"

This is my first snow season im going to miss for about 5 years

Went up the mountain just for the day yesterday, Falls Creek was insane, so much snow, crazy. Once or twice fog come over and you couldnt see much but everyone up there said it was the first day in a week the sun come out so i was so happy.

Cant wait to head up again, probally Hothem just for the day around second weekend of August.

Whats Buffalo like compaired to Falls or Hotham? little further away from me but im guesing its close for Melbourne peoples? might have to hit that for a day aswell.

 

[unit_mx]

herd Buffalo where going to put in a effort to make a really decent park this year as it close to the bourne.
I got tickets on this being a late season!!!!

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Word ....I know most of the top free skiiers... Hassart ,Boothy,Blundell,Woody ,cheech and heaps I've forgotten ....all the boarders as well.....I been filmin and shootin down here for a decade I should know most of em .And at the top level there IS NO skieer snowboarder thing ....they feed off each other ....where do you think the new progression in skiing is coming from ???? Who brought rails n boxes and grabs into the mix ???

SNOWBOARDERS silly

Where did the radial cut on those cool new twin tips ya runnin come from ???

Snowboarders

Who do the best skiiers in the country ride with ????

That's right snowboarders .

So my two cents is ....once you get to a certain level of either discipline the "snowboarder /skiier thing simply doesn't apply anymore .

The skiiers n boarders I ride with inspire and push each other which is how ya become a better rider or skiier .

For the record I rew up skiing but I haven't strapped a set of planks on for years ....as a surfer there simply is no choice.... I board because I grew up on a sk8ter and a surfboard end of story.

I totally agree.

When you get to a certain level it doesnt bother you. I dont mind Boarding with Skiers. As long as they arnt too good, (good for tow on the flat spots aswell). Same here grew up sk8 Boarding, Wake boarding, and Surfing so boarding at the snow was always the option.

Love it and dont really have time for the haters. I can see where skiers get pissed off but. Us boarders do tent to be pretty sporadik with our turns compaired to them. I dont even mind the old SKi spoon in the lines provided they are female and not to bad looking (cant really tell with all that gear on anyway )
