anyone ski down south during our summer? I'm thinking about maybe bummin' down there and I'm just wondering what the resorts are that get the snow and have good set ups.
-Thanks.

South island of New Zealand - Mt Hood in Christchurch, Snow Park, Cardrona in Queenstown.
If you feel like going to Australia, go to Mt Hotham and Falls Creek in Victoria, and Perisher and Thredbo in NSW...we had a shite season this year though so I'm not sure if it's going to be a good idea to come here.

it all depends on the season...last year NZ got puked on and I *think* it was better than South America, but trouble is you just don't know how it's going to be 'til July rolls around. Snow is not really guaranteed anywhere down here.

snooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooowpark son!!!!
you have to see it to belive it.
you can ride everyday forever and never be sick of it.
plus there is cardies and tc right there. wanaka is a rad place to be, the snow is plentyfull. (well it was when i was there) and for every snowflake is a bluebird day.
try the muffins. seriously.
i just got hard thinking about it.

ha, yeah. sounds like a good time, only problem is affording a ticket to get down there. tickets to south america are cheaper and it might be kinda cool to learn some spanish.

i went for 1200 bux from calgary.
business class, tvs and shit!
everything is mad cheap there too.
south america can be spensive, but it can also be super cheap.
youll have a rad time.
i went by myself and made some cooly cool freinds.
any trip is fun though, its all what you make it.

alright, I think NZ is sorta outta the questions due to the fact that it is mad $$$. Ill probably have to sell my bike in order to afford this trip which brings tears to my eyes so I'd like my money to take me as far as possible while still being able to find some powder in july.
