Trip Report: Thredbo - August 19/20/21

Nice trip report Jez! Stoked you had a good time. The conditions looked awesome!

I’m just back from NZ. Snow was a mixed bag over there. Had real nice conditions at Ohau though. And the trip as a whole was so much fun.

Great news!

TR in the making?

How did the Missus go on a board? First time wasn’t it?

Ha not sure about a TR… Just downloading photos etc. Will see if I can figure out how to put a short clip up…

Yeah it was her first go. She was starting to get turns by the end which was great. Treble Cone was bad for learning though (she did one of the three days there). Ohau had a nice long magic carpet which was good.

Yeah Remarks and Coronet are better for first timers since their beginner slopes are really mild so you can go somewhere after the magic carpets.

TC has a 10km run as one of the first greens lol.

Thanks everyone! Stoked you liked the trip report. It was great to be back on a snowboard again. Like a kid in a candy store… grin

Dan, that’s awesome buddy! Stoked you went shredding in NZ, and even better to see your face on the forums! wink

Tell me about it. 11 months since I went snowboarding. It felt amazing to be riding again. I was seriously in heaven for three days.  punch

But to scared to do fast laps with someone that might out carve you and capture it on video, hay!
We must have been on opposing laps Wednesday morning. I was shooting on World Cup/Mid Supertrail for an hour at 11am and didn’t see you come past.

You did “conveniently” respond to my messages after you left. lol
By the time we get to ride together next we will be to old men reminiscing about when we had our own knees!

Great TR mate!

Looks like you timed the conditions perfectly and it’s got me excited at the idea of riding there soon!

Haha what? Anytime, spaz.

No friends on a powder day and all that… wink

But seriously, only text I got from you was when we were leaving. Not sure if my incredibly poor Optus coverage had anything to do with that.
