I’m one of a few on here from Sydney’s northern beaches.  I have been boarding for 3 years, (although the first year doesn’t really count as i didn’t pick it up at all and went back to skis lol) i wouldn’t go back now.. Having way to much fun boarding smile

Haha Ozgirl I know but I wanted to find more out about you guys as well smile I think may make that thread as well could be fun.
Wow seems like you have a lot of experience!

Hoz sounds like you are picking it up now though! I’ve only been boarding once in NZ. We went for a week and by the end of it I didn’t want to leave. I was just starting to pick it up once it was time to go. I had one day of being on the lifts. Haven’t been boarding since -.-. Can’t wait to work my first season :D

We live in a magical place called Chill Hill, close to Mount Hotham, the rivers, lakes and beach. The wine flows freely and good times are plentiful*. cheese

Yeah I was like that when we got back from NZ. I was like damm I need to do that again and learn more! I really can’t wait to be able to do it everyday for a whole season! I’m still beginner but hopefully by mid season I’ll be able to learn jumps. I really want to learn how to butter it looks so cool smile
