i am down at Falls Creek waiting for some snow. we have some but its equivalent to like 10knts.

i left the sunny coast to hit up the snow for continous boarding... but im still waiting.

i hate relying on daddy nature to bring in the right conditions. switch on the snow guns..

PS. if anyone is working at falls, let me know.

unfortunately if you go to the mountains in june you are tempting fate .Kind of like going to NSW coast in winter looking for regular seabreezes.
its strange that when there is heaps of snow in Sept and nice weather no one gos.
Forcast is looking good for snow from Sun (hope that helps your pain)

Unfortunatley if you go to the mountains in Australia you are tempting fate.

I gave up a couple of years ago now.

Save your $$ and go to Japan instead!!

At least you aren't missing anything on the Sunny Coast - there is no wind and the surf is flat...

Plenty of snow over here in NZ and dumping like a mother right now. With the exchange rate it's probably cheaper for you to come on across the ditch. Was snowkiting in 20 cms of light fresh powder at snowfarm yesterday. as soon as this clears we'll be out again. Check out the camps at www.boarderpatrol.com.au

So how regular is the wind ? Where do you go if there isn't any wind .Sounds like a good package
