First to last lift on Saturday.
First to lunch time on Sunday.

With an epic chest infection, fell over a few times mid run because I was coughing my ass off.

Saturday was worth it overcast with a bit of snow in the morning, cleared up to be a really nice day, Sunday, was great, a bit warm for me though. Snow softened up.

Nah, it’s too slow and you get stopped on everything.

Only a seasoned pro can get through Piper.

Nice to meet yahs! My chest infection got the better of me today and I had to bail early. I wasn’t the most talkative person in the world this weekend, if I talked too much I coughed up a lung haha.

Thanks again TJ for rescuing my GF from the perils of <cant remember which one> T-bar.

No worries mate. Probably my only superpower. Helping damsel’s in distress up tee bars raspberry lol

Great weekend weather wise!

Saw TJ from the Quad early Saturday morning but didn’t manage to meet up with you all - sorry! Busy morning!

I did take a run down the center of the pipe on Saturday to check it out for you guys and it was abysmal!! But they closed it early Saturday arvo (the best time to groom the pipe is at peak riding time in the afternoon!) I went through it again on Sunday and it looked pretty sweet!

Fingers crossed it lasts for the shred!

Grabbed a couple of beers with Cabby on Saturday night, made TJ drive most of the way last night (trust me it is easier than the back seat driving he likes to do!!) and all in all a nice weekend!! Weather was brilliant! Yesterday was supposed to be a warm one but the wind chill kept it nice and cool and so not much snow suffered!

i hope so too!!! havent even riden through it yet teacherboy

 

So, I’m a fucking idiot. I edited (before I lost my main HDD to a failure) all my footage from a friends GoPro. First time using it and didn’t really spend much time listening to him on how to work it.

Anyway, got some wonderful footage of waiting in lift lines and going up lifts. Then footage of me ‘turning it on’ for the run.

Edited that in to an amusing video with cuts of me drinking water, eating lunch and sitting on the skitube.

Now I know.

I love the ones of people standing in front of you and the headcam wearer is asking “Is it on?”
