I will be filling out this bit tomorrow. For now jsut want to say thanks to everyone involved and it is possibly my favourite snow trip ever smile

Ok my wrap on the Boardworld Shred ‘11

I have to say it is one of the best snow trips and most positive snow related experiences I have ever been lucky enough to be apart of.
It was the most fun I have ever had at the snow considering I really only had half a day snowboarding due to the crash in the vids above!
Met so many great, fun and likeminded people. And from this have taken away friendships I can see lasting a very long time.
Thank you to all the sponsors who jumped on board and put together prizes, board demos (unfortunately I axed myself before I got a chance to get on any teacherboy )  and provided with accomodation discounts.
I was totally blow away how much some of the brands supported The Shred. Burton Australia and Chemical Storm are two that really stood out for me.

A special thanks Jerermy and Michelle for all their hard work they put into making it all happen. Spaz for sorting out the Shred Shed and doin research into accom early in the year.

I think for Boardworld and any current and potential sponsors of the Shred it is such a great form of positive promotion. The Shred brought a lot of awareness to the site and through that the sponsors too. Many people at on the mountain aproached us and asked if we were with the BW Shred and that they had heard about us and the site. This included mtn staff to punters. Things like random people going up to the muso playin guitar and showing him on their phones what BW was, or when Mizu and I were asked what happened to us (black eye and sling) we said go to http://www.boardworld.com.au and check all the footage! They responded with “oh your the BW crew here for the Shred, yeh we have already been on there to check it out”

To sum up, i think there couldnt be a better group of people who went to the shred to represent Boardworld and the Australian snow community.
Thanks to all involved! Thanks to all who attended! Thanks for the good times and new friendships.
See you all and more of you next year!

K2 cool smile
