Global Warming and Snow Cover in Australia
From a purely selfish perspective do many of you expect to be snowboarding in 50 years? Will be pushing the envelope for me I reckon at 82 ha ha!
I am the same age as you and i will be skiing on that day i am entitled to a free lift pass even if it kills me!!! (literally!)
Ha ha do you get a free lift pass at 82 or something? I reckon due to the nature of it I have a better chance of boarding at 82 than I do at surfing, we shall see, I hope i get that far!
Maybe we could spend all the money raised by the carbon tax and throw it into time travel research. . .
Haha, funny! I read that bit first, and thought to myself, “It’d probably have the same chance of success” - then I read your next comment. . .
Would probably have the same chance of success.
Great minds.
Very much so, I also thought as someone who has been flogging this thread I ought to bring some of the fun back.

Yeah I thought it was 70 or something but after posting above I went and checked and saw nothing on Perishers site :-(
But on second thoughts I will pay to see one of you boarders sitting in the snow strapping in at 82!

Sounds like a Rider’s challenge! See you back here in 40 years!
I’ll put ya mind at rest, Mud!!!!!!
There WILL be snow in the Aussie Alps for as long as we’re around!!!!!!
What about the kids!?!?!?!? <—Mizu grammar virus is spreading
They’ll have hover boards by then!!!!!!
Dammit Mizu you think of everything! No wonder they pay you the big money 
Mizu stole the idea from Speilberg’s documentary about time travel made in 1985 - “Back to the future II”
Problem is hoverboards don’t work on liquid water.
Invest the money into snowmaking or artificial snow or to encourage Aussie resorts to open runs at the end of the season that have snow cover.
The problem isn’t snow cover/climate change it is MONEY and GREED.

Thanks for clarifying ...

One report I read said it will be too warm to even make snow. Better make the most of it while we can.
i reckon they will eventually be able to make snow that is still solid/frozen in positive temps

Interesting point!
I wonder how technology will keep up with the so called ever changing snowline.

I reckon summer snowboarding would be massively popular. Imagine having yourself a country property with one of those wavepools that we were discussing in the surfing section a few months ago in front of the house and then all season snow on the big hill you have behind the house, farken sick!
Have a wave then a run within 5 mins of eachother.
proof of global warming
best evidence to date, tested over time
God help us!!!!!!
