The next Shred, WHERE?
^^^ :giggle:
But yes Thredbo is the most convenient in that respect.
The Station or anywhere in Jindy would not be conducive for demo gear as you would only be able to ride one board each day. On snow is a must in that regard! I believe that is the original reason Jez decided against The Station for this year. and lets face it the majority of members want on snow accom.
blah blah blah who really cares where it is as long as everyone has fun….
and
We all know that regulars will go to shred no metter where it is…
Also when we can get an apartment like the Shred Shed for peanuts per person.
Last year I paid like $120 for accommodation. Sure there was no dinner included but that’s like 15% the price I paid at the Sundeck.
Unless there is some super deal from Thredbo regarding accommodation, I would totally look into staying there again!

I regularly rode more than one board per day this season. I stayed at The Station.
Lucky you Chucky!
Did you ride boards from the collection that was at The Sundeck?
Gee lucky Jez organised that accom.
Either you brought more than 1 board up the mountain or swapped them at the Sundeck.
I doubt Jeremy wants to lug 30+ boards up the mountain per day on the off chance someone wants to try one. I wouldn’t…
Actually re reading Chucky post he is say that during the whole season he rode more than one board. ie his own that he took up the car and therefore swapped over in the car park.
But yeah TJ your point was better!
A couple of boards for one person is very different to 30+ boards.
Regarding location, surely this is the best indicator of where members want to ride:
I think a big reason there were so many members at Perisher this season was because we announced the Shred would be there; at the same time the Perisher Freedom passes were announced and went on sale. Thredbo was very slow coming up with a counter offer. We were also advertising the Freedom Pass for Perisher on the site, on Facebook and also through the forums. We had a lot of members deflect from Thredbo to Perisher from last season to this season, because of the Shred and other reasons. Just my honest opinion. 
Again, doesn’t bother me where it is haha
But also wanna put it out there, will be there for the whole week next time and usually drive. If its at thredbo or somewhere we need things transported in cars, give me a yell jez, I can load up the wagon as much as you’d like
Edit: I can’t read numbers!!!!

Most days, I’d have at least two boards in my car, both freshly waxed - with bindings. Sometimes I’d have more than one alternate board in my car - also freshly waxed, but without bindings. It was no problem at all.
I doubt Jeremy wants to lug 30+ boards up the mountain per day on the off chance someone wants to try one. I wouldn’t…
Why would he have to? You pick out a board the night or morning before, and perhaps an alternate as well, and away you go.
I seriously doubt many people at the Sundeck demoed more than three different boards on any given day.
I seriously doubt many people at the Sundeck demoed 30+ different boards in the week - or even close to that.

Yeah, that’s exactly how I saw it too!!!!!

That okay Billy, we know that your a teacher!!!!!
Actually re reading Chucky post he is say that during the whole season he rode more than one board . . .
No - during any given day, I rode more than one board - and switched in my car. Too easy.
