Watch the 2009 NZ Open live

Managed to catch the end of women’s slopestyle at a mate’s place. Was really great boarding and the feed was good. Thanks for telling us. I’ll be sure to tune in tomorrow.

 

This weekend is jammed pack for me.
I tried youtubing the highlights but i cant find any.
If anyones got a link to the highlights, hit me up please smile
The opensnowboarding site only has some pics and live results as far as i can see.
Cheers

 

Some youtube videos I found just then:

This user has lots of videos from it: http://www.youtube.com/user/zerosandonesconz

 

ahh cheers
The halfpipe finals were raging man

 

Yeah it’s all crazy. Would be great to be there when it all goes down. Was anyone on boardworld present at it?

 

Im no fan of watching.
I play golf but have absolutely no interest in watching it.
People ask why. I say, if i’ve got time to watch a golf game, i’d play it.
If i was up on the slopes of NZ, stuff watching a halfpipe run, i’d hit the slopes. Its most probably cos i take less interest in halfpipe.
Im more into features, rail, boxes etc.

 

I’m not normally into watching sport on TV in full but highlights are good. Live is always better (eg. going to footy) - except for swimming, tv does a lot better job

 

Its just what interests you and what doesnt.
I could watch a full footy game if the pies are playing. if melbourne is playing, i really wouldnt give a rats bottom about it

 

I’m a bit different to that. If it’s a good game that’s fairly evenly matched then I couldn’t care less who was playing.

O what i meant was i just dont go for melbourne so i wouldnt care. I’d rather watch a saints versus melbourne match than a melbourne vers freo (which is tomorrow incidentally)

 

Thsi season the only game I’d watch with Melbourne in it would be Melbourne Richmond, at least there might be a bit of a contest rather than one team winning by more than 30 points.

 

carn the pies… smashed richmond today :D
well the incentive of going to tomorrows game is that apparently you can go on the field to kick around.
I think they said that its going to be the last time that its allowed

More fun kicking around o nthe way to the station after raspberry They say it’s the last time but I doubt it will be.

 

With another reference to facebook, there’s a group to bring it back as well raspberry

 

To me the option to kick around on the MCG isn’t that appealing. In all reality it’s just a very well kept piece of giant turf, haha. I’d be more interested in playing cricket rather than footy on it.
