Torah Signs with Thredbo?!?!?!

Woah!

Huge win for Thredbo, but wow. Stunned.

No pipe over there. So seems kinda a weird alignment to me!

Loyalty is pretty low to her as well it seems. Not that there is anything wrong with that, but thought that Torah was pretty loyal like that.

She probably just wanted to ride a real mountain for a change?????

Yeah I heard about this about a month ago from someone that works on the hill.

I don’t really see what a mountain sponsor does for her? Free lift tickets? Money?

She changed mountains? Story just keeps on getting more and more about the money.

Its mainly about the money.

But for Torah what Perisher offered in terms of the only half pipe in Australia it was a natural match.

Which is why this move seems bizarre and a bit “jump the shark”

its very
thinking

Like the last couple of years you would think that over and above the money factor would be support for Olympic’s

So building features etc -

So for Torah - a world class half pipe!

Yeah boo :( Torah, I think she is about done with her career. It kind of lames me out when a pro with such good skill and support in Australia goes to be a face of a mountain for the $$$. I may be speculating but they might have some thing in the works.

Does anyone know for a fact that Torah moved for the money?  No
Does anyone know her motives for the move? No

There are plenty of possible reasons she moved, could be for the money, could be that perisher pissed her off, could be that she actually just wants to ride thredbo, in all honesty I dont give a flying fuck. But what ever the reason, im sure she has weighed up the pros and cons and this is the result that made sense to her.

If its not for the money it is even worse IMO

These athletes ask for the support from the mountains and then they go and bite the hand that feeds them.
