Well the ski season is over in AUS for another year...I went down to Perisher myself this year (I currently reside in Brisbane).

I did the Mountain Workshop with the ski-school their and am happy to say I find myself a better skier for it. Currently I have only skied for approx. 4 weeks (24 days) and finally got the courage up to go off the jumps in front valley (30 - 50 footers).

I did some basic grabs and that was about it :P, I am hoping to go down next year for the school ski trip and refine my skills.

If anyone else made the journey to the southern states for the season, I want to see some stories shared.

yeah mate did a few weeks down in perisher and thredbo..some good parks setup this season 35,40,45ft at antons, huge highnoon park and then good front valley and leichardt parks at perisher..

Didn't get to hit the pipe - i suck at it anyway..

A good season all round - better snow than NZ had for sure.
Well done on getting the jumps happening - can be hard when you are starting out..
Good times.

Yeh it's kinda hard, especially when following up from a guy that did a 720  :P

It was amazing snow this year, all time low in snow last season to a bumper snow season this year
