That’s fine smile I may have lashed out straight after with a board and all the gear. And have my 2nd trip booked for 2 weeks time to Buller…

Only problem is I live in Northwest WA so it’s a mission to get to the snow! Oh well.

Living in WA would be the perfect excuse to hit the northern hemisphere resorts every summer and NZ when it snows in Winter, don’t know if I’d bother travelling for buller!

I think the winner beat you by being the first over 85 in a sudden death ollie off when both of you couldn’t get over 90.
Cracking effort though seeing I went out first round at 30cm…........I had tired legs dammit!! wink
