Thredwoe is better?
Well... back from my weekend of snowboarding. It was hectic but awesome. I drove the whole way there and back because my passenger (mr chen) is unable to drive due to chronic laziness. Our car, and hoa's car both dined with phil in canberra on the way down at a malaysian restaurant, but not before 30 mins of wondering around figuring out what to eat. We stopped for a skate after that at berridale, and I'm happy to say we both balls-ed up and rode down this massive roll-in that looked really huge and scary. Our last stop on the journey was in jindabyne at rebel waiting for the girls in hoa's car to get hire. They took a long time because rebel are inefficient and colour coordination had to be obtained.

The saturday was a disaster in terms of getting to the snow. We left late due to a 2:30AM bedtime the night before, and it really showed in terms of traffic. We waited like 15 mins at the national park gates in traffic, which is totally bizarre. I've never seen perisher so busy. We had to park at smiggens because the perisher carpark was full, and so was the road from perisher to smiggens. So many people around. We got onto the snow about 11am and had a nice slightly-more-than-half-a-day boarding. Me and chenny snowboarded 3/4 of the way back to the car from perisher at the end of the day before hoa came and picked us up :)

that night we had to wait an hour for take away pizza, before crashing to bed.

The next day we were up at 6:30 and packed and ready to go. Connie, Chenny and myself were on the slopes by 9:30 which was nice, and we bumped into adam reitsma of BIT fame and snowbaorded with him in the morning. It was a cruisey day apart from the occasional fall off a jump. We met up at 4pm to go home, and I accidently bought traditional sarsperilla instead of traditional raspberry :( sarsperilla is gross by the way.

Chenny and myself stopped off at cooma for a skate on the way home. He tried dropping in on a quater pipe and made it to the bottom but it wasn't the cleanest of drop-ins :D Anyways all up it was a nice weekend with some quality people. I even ran into my cousin on the slopes :D
