theabortionatorShould have an NSer meet up on the hill or at a pub after sometime.
Anybody have a house with a room for rent around Ohakune? Figure I might as well ask.

-SnowSnoli-On a road trip around NZ in 2 weeks for 3 months. Should be in Turoa mid July we got room for 2 extra people if anyone wants to tag along for any part of the trip! (not the whole duration as it would be to crowded aha)
theabortionatorI'm down to spin some laps.
I'll be heading down on the 7th. Just booked my flight finally.
MongedAsBroWhat day you starting work?
PhotoGraphicIf you see a half naked dude with a bottle of Kahlua in the left hand and a bottle of baileys in the right hand you know who you've find.
.skiwi.Me and some mates will be down next weekend, how do you reckon the park will look by then?
theabortionator^ things are looking pretty good right now despite the slow start. Today was beautiful.
Through a flat box back in at the top with a down box next to it. Hips were still good as well as the cannon and flat box.
The down box was the shreddy feature of the day. Some kids were getting some mean tricks. I dabbled a little bit myself.
Full park rebuild coming after the rail jam. 7 features in right now. Today was packed but we had a pretty raging hike sesh going on different features
Def worth coming up and checking out. I'll update when the rail build is done, I don't want to leak that yet. And when we start rebuilding I'll post what the parks are looking like.
Come shred, say hello or throw things at the people with green jackets and come shred.
MongedAsBroThe cannon box is super fun man. Also super pumped for the rail jam.
I rode whakapapa today, they got a little park going on. Its a flat bar to a down rail or jump/hip option.
rozboonThreads for more info on how we get on recovering from this last weather cycle.
Looks like it has pretty much reset the lower mountain. Bugger bugger bugger.
rozboonIf the promised snow of the next 3 days or so delivers we might get back to close to it was. Bloody impressed they got it up and going again at Turoa as fast as this... how awful is Clarrie's looking at the moment though? From the cams it looks like Boneyard is maybe 1 cat wide at the bottom, recipe for carnage.
Considering giving it a bash this weekend though, I'm starting to suffer from withdrawal.
theabortionatorThe hips were fun and good for what they were but those are gone.
Park starts out with a flat box or down box side by side. Next is a small 20' ish jump with a nice long steep landing and a u box on the same knuckle. Next is a small 25'ish true table with a big gap on gap off flat box on the same knuckle.
That's it for now. Everything is fresh so tomorrow we're going to get everything finished up and dialed in.
I'd post some pics but it was super flat out. On the plus it was snowing hard all day. Got some powder. Hopefully we keep getting more through the weekend.
JosephRikysSounds sick! pics up tomorrow maybe? Uhhhhh I wanna ski so bad right now.
JosephRikysI see a donkey dick in front of the midfield webcam. Stop teasing us :P
PhotoGraphicShould organise going up into the glacier, need probes and transceivers though.
rozboon3-day weekending it to get the most out of this current storm.
Will probably be watching the rail jam, not competing because I suck miserable balls at rails.
