Replying to Southern Hemisphere

K so hopefully the anwsers to this well help myself and anyone else wondering.

K so I want to keep skiing for our summer. So me and some buds decided we should hit up somewhere in the southern hemisphere. Our main goal is to get good at park (as much as I would love to ride chile or argentinas epic pow), so we decided on Snow Park NZ. The problem is, we want to stay on the mountain or atleast as close as possible (nothing is better then walking out your door and skiing to the lift). We emailed the resort, and basically all they have said is they have no long term facilities, but we can check out there "apartments" which are basically exspence hotels. So its looking like we're gonna have to stay in Wanka (if we go, its lookin way exspense right now) which brings up the main problem with gettin to the resort everyday. So now we're kinda looking at other places in Australia or new Zealand, but we don't know what other places have really nice parks, with comps, and fun events.

So that is our situation. Now if any of you guys or girls out there could help us with maybe finding a mountain with a really nice park (so it needs big jumps, not only rails), or giving us advice on how to ride snow park for their season, as in a good place to stay and a good way to get to the mountain every day, that would be siiick!
