its absolutely dumping kasper, pack a balaclava and some good anti fog goggles and you will be laughing. Today they did alot of grooming on other runs and i would expect them to open alot more of the mountain tomoro

can anyone reccomend a good brand of gloves or a specific style. my burton ones have had it. they have holes at the top of my fingers from where my binding has shredded it as ive tightened up my bindings. my hands froze on monday. does anyone have mitten style gloves. i figured theyd keep the wetness out because they only have one stitching line around ur whole hand?? any help appreciated

singha,
i'm the same about my toe edge.
my advice is go NZ. you can get a good airfare plus ski tickets etc are cheaper

also my friends bet me that i couldnt stand out in the car park on the snow in nothing but boxers and a tee for more than 5 mins. my foot was frozen till about mansfield on the drive down. it looks like i was crying but i wasnt, and if i was my tears would have frozen.

OMFG, yesterday (wed) at buller was unbelievable, caught the horse hill lift up, walked over and slid down & caught the holden express straight over to wombat, got to snowboard through 30 odd cms of fresh snow with maybe only 20 other tracks through it, smooth, deep and bluebird, AMAZING, then up to the summit and down the right hand side to howqua, same again, but possibly even deeper "powder"
Epic start for me for season 08
