So we can both blame Azz, as well!!!!!

 

I met Wildman a month or two back after I saw the boardworld sticker on his head and said hi. Cool guy! Have had a few super fun sessions lapping summit park with him and other crew since then. Turns out he’s a boss on a bobsled too haha. Goodbye season 2014 :( time to get amped for the northern hemi winter!

Well that’s the season for me.  Conditions were getting seriously sketchy up to yesterday then the rain came through overnight.  There were still a select few ride-able runs, but there are large dirt/rock patches everywhere now.  Here’s a couple of fish-eye photos courtesy of my GoPro.

I had a blast this season thanks to the BW mates I saw up there including Azz, Tambo, Billy, Wildman and Ivan from Meme.  Thanks guys!

Yeah it’s about shot.  Bit of a shame it wasn’t cold enough to snow instead of rain, but it is spring.  I’ve had a cracker of a run this season so no complaints here!

Was that before or after the rain?

Just ordered my Hero Passes for next year.  Who else is getting them?

Deposit paid.

Guess I’ll see you crazy kids on the hill next year.

after.  it was a bit patchy before but really patchy after.  Snake and Imagine were still quite ok, though.

Glad to see that the snow making is paying off for them.

In case you didn’t get your Hero pass for Hotham OR Falls, they’ve extended the sale till 3rd Oct…

We were also contacted by a number of other people who explained they were currently away from home and didn’t have sufficiently reliable internet access to buy their Hero Passes.

If either of these scenarios describes your situation, you can relax.

We’ve extended the 2015 Hero Season Pass Sale until this Friday 3 October 2014, so you won’t miss out on this one-off opportunity to secure unlimited skiing and snowboarding in 2015 for less than half the normal price of a season pass.

We’ve also created a grace period for anybody who may have missed this message while they’re away during the school holidays. Please contact our ticket department – .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address) (or Hotham)– as soon as possible on your return next week to request an application form and pay your deposit.

See there’s an excuse for everything!

 

Hey hey!
Just wanted to share our end of season edit which we filmed in and around Hotham and Falls Creek in 2014.
