BlueCow today
At last. I was starting to think about NZ haha
You should do the following weekend, i’ll be there with a mate boarding sat-tuesday

This weather system is taking its time to kick in!
Looks like there’s been a fair bit of dusting up high but a lot seems to be riding on tonight now.
My car is currently packed and I was ready to head down tonight but not so sure now might delay another week, decisions decisions.
Id like to apologize for the slow start as perisher knows im coming this yr for the first time in a few yrs. Ive never had good conditions there bar a day or 2 in my 5 trips.
Sorry all, my accom is paid for I cant back out.

Correction, I’m making it build up much as you are right?
Been snowing most of last night.. And the odd little snow shower today.. Its predicted to snow right through for the next 10 days so far.. Nothing major.. Just slowly building up..
front valley was white this morning.. But the mid areas are getting a bit greener as the day goes..
still enjoying myself.. Working on switch riding, tail and not presses and spins.. I can tail press (manual) the whole middle flat section of front valley now.. (have a look at the pic on my Facebook.. So stoked!)
Thanks for the update hoz! Going to have to find you on facebook to check out the pics.
This cold front is a bit of a fizzer snow wise but at least it will stay cold for the snow guns. I’ll once again pencil in next weekend for my first slide.
niice h0z! keep up the good work!
Are there any decent rollers or cat tracks there yet?
ill see you there next weekend drc
The “front” of a change rarely has much snow.
The low stalled over us for a few days (good because its not clear snow), so this is still prefeontal. When the next front comes through it will push the cold air and heavier falls in.
Just hoping the high that’s sitting in the Bight dissipates and allows the lows through - a few of them have backed up waiting to hit us hard.
Rode all day yesterday and half day today.
Yesterday was half fun, it was better conditions then i expected. No crowds and was just working on getting my snow legs back, manuals, bs 180’s etc.
There was some snow overnight which dusted most of front valley and all the way past smiggins. But the crowds were so effing annoying today. Considering the amount of people there, and the amount of terrain open i decided against bothering with the lift and just hiking the “park”. Ran into AJ and had a lil session with him until he needed to fix his binding. Was working on getting used to hitting rails/boxes again. Started to try bs 180 boardslides btu need to work on getting more pop up onto the box. Last attempt was a BS boardslide on a rail. overbalanced and landed arse first on the slush/ice/dirt so i called it a day.
Hot tip - If its going to cost you money dont go down until it gets another dump. Only reason i went was cause i had a free lift and accomo. And avoid weekends if you can. Carpark was half full, all there to ride 1/4 or front valley…you do the math.
Hahaha so was chilling on front valley after work today, and noticed someone wearing a BOARDWORLD hoodie/jacket hahaha

know who it was?
Most likely me!; I ran into AJ in the lift line.. And caught the chair up with him.. Yesterday… And saw Tracvks in the park today when I was filming Mr.h0z and some friends..
if the person you saw had a blue backpack, long blonde hair, and really long beanie (like elbow length) that’s green and purple, and grey/black splotchy pants… Then it was me!!
