Looking at delaying leaving until 2-3 ish, should be fine by then. Thanks for letting us know.

Explains the lack of crowds today.

Hey Willy,

Might be best to get her to be a bit more confident with riding before signing up (which hopefully will happen this weekend?)

I’m sure there will be a ton of other people to meet and socialise with, the facebook event already has 45 likes and 8 comments: https://www.facebook.com/BurtonAustralia

Blizz should do it with her!

If there are two similar women who show up they should cater to them!

Unless there is a specified “must be of x ability” to sign up. Which they don’t

Yeah agreed but she’s keen so I thought I’d ask for her anyway..

That sounds cool, I’d be interested! I will talk to her about it this weekend

I agree that they will likely help out everyone who is keen. But Sarah is currently still riding the magic carpet. Lets get her out and getting the basics / start linking turns and stuff and then this day would be much more fun!

She can link turns and do runs but not having ridden for ages she just needs to practice it all again..

Yeah easy smile.

Since it was icey and slushy on opening weekend, it’s not the easiest to ride on anyway… That’s why I fell over… Yes, that’s why…

Chicks with Stix also do girl only days on the hill. This year Perisher’s one is on the 18th of August. I’ll be there for it :D

I did it last year and had lots of fun, met some new shredding buddies and progressed my skills. There was a range of abilities there and they cater the groups accordingly. Also put you in groups depending on whether you’re more keen on park or mountain riding.

It’s free too and you can win prizes!
