yeah im curious about that aswell, the only info i could find is that its half price for uni students ON TUESDAY
heres my little update for you....i have not been checked for a lift ticket properly once yet, twice i have been asked and went to zip down my jacket to show them my season pass and theyv got 'thats cool dont worry about it' both times. Secondly its absolutely pissing down snow right now. I went for a walk down to foodworks just before and came back and the tracks leaving my lodge were already covered. Tomoro will be epic, pack your balaclavas. Il be wearing a grean and gold jacket with white pants if anyone sees me. Il be able to post pixs tomoro night because a friend is bringing up a cord for me, so all you snow starved guys stay tuned.
hey,
i need advice. shud i go to NZ n stay wit my m8 who just moved over there n do a few weeks of snowboarding there.
or shud i just go to persiher/thredbo which is bout 2 hours away lol.
im keen for overseas fun time.
he lives at ohoka dunno wat the closest resort is
maybe mount hutt.
advice lads.
and yes i have snowboarded b4 lol.
fuck i just wrote amassivepost about my day at buller and i wasnt logged in. FFFFUUUUUUCCCCKKK.
to some it upquickly it was terrible. some of the worst conditions ive boarded in. their was a huge headwind goingstraight up bourke st and u couldnt even get across the flat spots going top speed the wind was that strong. plus it was very foggy and patchy.
my 2 friends got too cold at 11am and went and drank hot chocolates and left me to board alone, isolated too bourke st. i kept my eyes peeled for JV and trotty but i figured use would be a no show due to the poor conditions. it wa snowng heaps and i wish i came up tommoro or wednesday. i was very unimpressed with mt buller today and have once again lost faith in that mountain. we were out of their by 3pm
Falls Creek love
im offto bed now coz ive been awake since sunday morning. night all. xoxo
scotty
Trotty, are you in falls? What runs are good right now?
advize me.
shud i go to mt hutt in nzw or just stay in ausn do teh cheap option.
trottys at buller RWC. also JV my frind TAFE card worked a treat today!
sorry rayner i dont know whether u should go to NZ or stay in AUS??????????????
daaaamn you and your lack of advice.
hmmm let me find a map of mt Hutt
lol this lil yelow bits r halfpipes.
n the big yellow is terrain park.
also there is heli boarding pick up off the resort.
looks good man, nice and simple mountain to figure out with plenty of blue and black runs! plus some terrain goodness
lift tickets at buller is $47
but i dunno, maybe teertiary discounts might work out better
there is a bigger map.
been sussing out the vids n shit on youtube sum of that terrain looks steep which cud be fun.
i really wanna go to snowpark. thatd be siiick
hey all you park kids.
lol i never really rode paRK B4 IM JUST A MOUNTAIN CRUISER.
im hell keen to get into park stuff.
as u knwo i bought a ride kink at the end of last year so i cud start chillen in the terrain park.
any advice on getting used to jibs etc.
steal a bench from the local village and sesh it on your own away from prying eyes and you dont have to wait either. Do that for a couple of arvos and you will improve out of sight. Also i heard that NZ have got a 2.5M base but that could have just been bullshit. I dont understand your dillema rayner. Do u get to spend more time at perisher then NZ or do u get to spend the same amount of time. If its the same time then i would go to NZ at the drop of a hat if i were u. Also JV i only rode bourke street from 4-close. We got foxtel working in our apartment and seshed a table inbetween foxtel
just finished an epic monoply game. i was looking out for u today sotty! were u with greeny and them? im cut we didnt find u, u could have chilled at the crib, and came and hit our pow kicker later on! spewing!
dont loosefaih in old buller, she's been pukingtoday, and is set to tomorrow aswell!
come hit her up fridy with us!
nite suckers, werehavin an early one 2moro!
i get to spend equal time at either one i choose.
like i was just asking cos i wanna board sumwhere new like NZ
but cos im unemployed i dnt have much cash so throw about.
so im sussing which is better.
i mean nz is value for money but aus resorts is the cheaper option you know.
but im keen for nz
correction on my earlier post. They made it half price for the day i was there becaus there were only three lifts open
NZ isnt much difference price wise from aus, especially if ur staying there free
hhey rayner, i spent 3 weeks in NZ last year ridin the moutains around there, and if your you want to try some park riding then Mt Hutt isnt that great, and its nothing compred to the southern lake rmtns like Cardrona or the Remarks or even Snow Park, but there a good 2 hours away from Mt Hutt
JV i was with another gisborne skater tadd and another mate who doesnt skate heath. greenys over in america for 4 months skating at the moment but he would have been involved if he was here. it was good to try out my new jacket and goggles yesterday. and id never driven up to the snow before so that was a new/good experience. we made it to mansfield in like 2 hours and 15 mins from gisborne which was unexpected. i cant really afford another day trip coz im going to falls on the 27th for a week and all my funds are tipping towards that. fuk ur so lucky julius i just saw falls on the news this morning and and it looks amazing, nearly 50cm and still falling!!!!
im coming up to buller tomorrow so ill need a good report tonight from any of you guys up there, cant wait. If anyone cares ill be rocking a bright pink burton dominant, brown jacket, prob have my helmet on and gold von zipper goggles
yeah my whole point of going to mt hutt is its really close to where my m8 lives so we can drive there each day without too much fuss.
ill probly just dogg it n go to perisher for a week cos im a weiner
buller weather looks pretty shit again today on the webcams!
just having some lunch now.
most amazing morning ever! hit the lifts early as, got fresh runs on summit for an hour, soo deep and cruisy!
it wassnowing a bt, but now it's eased up. e have pretty sickcover here, hopefully good to open shakey knees and lil buller spur soon.
sorry u had a shit day roll!u came 1 day too early!
i may be up in a couple of sundays apparently another freind wants to go up and his gonna cover all driving costs
