i imagine it wouldnt be too much of a challenge this year to get a job in canada? i am contemplating where to go at the end of the year, i really wanna do a season in laax but i am not so good with foreign languages. i think i will probably wait and see what comes up at thredbo - apparently they have something going where they organize jobs with other resorts in northern hemi. i imagine most aus resorts would have some kind of similar scheme happening?
i love the vibe of these guys' vids

i wanna go to presiher this year, keen to see what its like compared to other places ive been. any idea of a good budget that would last?
hey guys wassup
just moved into town off the old resoprt cos opening weekend is comming up fast and snowmakers moved onto resort to start work so i got booted out of their room.
i have ordered a lib tech box scratcher
should be in the tsore before opening weekend.
where is everyone working/riding this year?
147 is getting pretty small dude!
yeah its fairly short but its wide.
its ment to be like a all mountain mini board for a more skate styled ride.
i normally ride a 123 rossignol mini.
but thats wayyy to short for pow/fresh days
it must go well with your ski blades and your snowbike?
adrenalin plus rail jam was sick tonight, some good shit went down
any one from here hit it up?
nah man i was at adrenalin plus the other week though.
anyone know when the stockmans railjam is on in jindy?
yeah A+ rail jam was so sick. its such a fun set up. but i didnt hang around for the sponsored section, i just rode and left, who won the sponsored section though?
Hey any you guys fans of the Thinkthank crew?
they have a video on the way out it should be sweet
im pretty sure every snowboarder everywhere is a fan of the thinkthank crew mate
just got back from buller induction/training weekend...
holy shit! had the best time, met some good crew, drank some beers and didnt sleep much. going to be such a sick season once the snow arrives, im sooo keen for it. ill be the homie trying to organise u slackers into 4 on bb1 and trying to explain to indian tourists in jeans and t-shirts that u cant take tobogans on the chail
ahhh yes the old indians who think they can ridethe lift with no ticket and a toboggan.
or the ones who go down the ski runs n then take out the mob waiting at the bottom of the chairlift
so JV can you let us on the lift for free? or somehow hustle us some tickets?
haha did you gifure your accom out up there? im praying i can stay up there in your room haha
we just stayed at faulty. we went up with 4 of us from sunbury, so were prob all gonna share a room there. im sure u will be able to crash on the floor, or i could just say that my mate steve is a faggot and he picks up men and brings them home for sex/sleepovers. the manager of faulty is acctually gay tho, so i dont know how that will go down haha
also, they are reporting on the website that they have made snow... they havnt. its dryer than a dead dingos donger up there apart from the occasional morning frost. but the ground is at that stage that its sort of frozen i guess, so hopefully snow sticks.
thats what i like to here jV haha sick
craving some riding at the moment, its making me sick, plus i hate sitting around doing nothing
i think everywhere is up the shitter and in need of some snow guys.
it snowed on the 26th of april n kept snowing til the 28th.
and we havent seen much.
apparently perisher has sum man made snow in front valley.
rayner are you working at selwyn
yes.... yes i am why?
funny thing happened today.
sum wog lad walks up to my boss out of our carpark.
n goes... hey mate do use like have the man made snow or what eyyy?
n boss just looked at him controlled his urge to laugh n says
" yes we normally do, but as the resort isnt open yet we havent made any snow"
to which the guy replies
"so like when do use open ey"
"next weekend"
"ohh ohk. well like is there any snow about?"
"no try perisher they have some man made snow there"
"how do i like get to perisher?"
"drive two hours in that direction"
"oh thankyou"
guy proceeds to get in his carn drive off.
i notice two kids in the back bawling their eyes out.
no doubt he had to listen to upset kids all the way home. after he failed to take them to a resort that actually had snow
just remembered you saying so a while back and wondered if it came together, i live in tumut and go up sometimes.
oh yeah cool dude.
yeah i was working there last season so i was a shoe in.
yeah ive been up here since april 25th.
snowed on the 26th and kept snowing til the 28th.
do u board or ski dude?
give me a holla when your comming up n ill go for a ride with yah.
keep an eye out for me ill be lurking about the place probly running a lift or shaping the terrain park.
Yeah i board, where do you stay up there if you work there ?
well when i started up with the pre season shit i was living on the resort.
i stay at tanderra cos i steal their netand its cheap n i hate sharing a room with another cunt so i go one out in the old ghetto lodge.
but otherwise there is the staff accomodation.
