TR Silent’s annual shred @ Thredbo 2013

Not much to write as I’m not a good long writer… raspberry
So here story, we had the group of 23 deaf adult & kids from Brisvegas, we flew in Canberra for overnight.
We drove hired cars to our chalets Mountain vista for a week.
We were so fortunately to slide/shred all trails with snow covers on whole the week day.
To be honestly I was shocked to witness how fast melting at the lower mountain. Also first time we missed the snow falls in our 6th trip. We were stoked the forecasters are wrong with rains predicted on our last days Thursday and Friday.
I’ll let photo’s and video do all the talks…

That’s the second year I missed you.

I’m so disappointed I wasn’t in Thredbo the week you were there.
Shredding with you is so full of stoke because of the energy you express - big smiles, waving arms, sheer joy and grunts of madness coming from people who have never heard a sound but still make noise from their mouths anyway - “aaaahhheeeeeahhhh” (makes me so happy just thinking about it).
It’s more than any words can express (written or VERBAL).

I had of course forgotten all the Auslan I taught myself (except “drink” haha)
I even lost the app I had on my phone that would help me.
LOL
Really wanted and meet your friends too. It would have been so funny watching me have no clue what anyone was saying.

Next time we will shred, smile, laugh and beers
