I wish they’d bring that pipe back!!!
I remember when i went to the snow with high school many many many moons ago and we went to hotham. I have this vauge memory of possibly that hut in the video or another one up the slope a bit further that people where riding over. It was my first time ever on a snowboard so i didnt attempt it.
That hut thing isnt there anymore is it or has it been moved to be the storage/office thing for the disabled skiers?
Cover went downhill a bit today, but most of HV is still very rideable. They’ve moved the rail park back to its usual spot near Swindler’s. Took out the new board - the T.Rice I won here on BW last year. Still getting used to that board but it really seems to like going hard and the magnetraction was a major plus on the icy patches today.
although it’s been a pretty average start to the season, but there has been enough snow and more than enough fun to put together the first sixty second shredit of the year! mostly filmed in the early season parks at falls and hotham over the first few wknds of the season.

EDITED ~ Redfrog, click on edit and have a look at the youtube bit, you only need the code bit. Cheers Azz
Sweet little edit
thanks mate. noted!
Left today. Yesterday was good but the snow was starting to get a bit soft and heavy in the warm temps. It was raining quite a bit when we left today and we had rain all the way back to Melb, so I’m guessing it rained most of the day up there. We really lucked out with the conditions and weather and had a great time. The RFID ticketing is still a bit of a fiasco but I guess they’ll get on top of that over time.
This weeks not good, a heap of rain on Saturday night / Sunday, warm temps. Going to be 18 here today, 20 tomorrow…..
Another rain event before hopefully, fingers crossed some snow.
Back to four lifts running
First time since ‘06 I have not been on snow for 7+ days.I have not even been once yet. Devo
yeah im yet to set foot on any australian white stuff this year aswell. Its a sorry state of affairs!
Weather nerds are talking major dumpage this weekend, and possibly the following weekend too.

Unfortunately after a huge downpour of rain (though preserving the current snow level in Vic probably isn’t a major concern)
Hopefully this one comes off. Naturally I’ve committed to something and can’t make the snow on the following weekend

Yeah, it’s pretty grim. Been a disappointing season so far, especially for Vic.
ive got a week at falls from the 2nd of august so i hope it dumps and dumps and dumps!
This weekend sounds good though, might head up i think!
They’re calling snow for this weekend and then the 26th.

Let me know if you do, may be keen
I don’t normally like to quote that other forum, but I do like this:
Going off this arvos GFS…
5 feet of snow for Hotham wouldn’t be out of the question by next friday.
Probably BS but I’m a glass half-full guy when it comes to weather predictions!
