Backcountry Stroll to Mt Kozzie on the Last Day of the Season | Winter 24', Day 18
G'day all!
My 18th day of the season, and also my last day of the season (maybe) and i wanted to end it on a LITERAL high, so i decided to head out for a backcountry stroll to Mt Kosciuszko for a session of Earning my turns.
My initial plan was to Snowshoe hike out from Thredbo to Mt Kosciuszko for a few turns down there. Then head back around through North Ramshead and Aries Tor. Unfortunately, my fitness, or lack of it, meant i had to divert back to the Main track and head back to Thredbo. Maybe next time!
Conditions were as good as they get for Spring time. Bluebird day, light winds, overnight freeze and near perfect corn. Despite the average season we've had, the coverage was still very good above roughly 2000m. Some awesome turns were had!
Despite the season we've had, i still enjoyed and loved every single minute on snow. Wouldn't have it any other way. It was definitely the perfect way to see out the season.
In terms of gear (for anyone interested) im Riding the Nitro Team TLS, Union Forces and Nitro POW 154
All footage shot on a GoPro Hero 12 with a Max Lens Mod 2.0.
Enjoy!

Soft and Slushy Mid Winter turns on the Nitro POW | Winter 24', Day 15
Переглядів 964День тому
G'day all! My 15th Day of the season. Another top day. We were in the middle of a mid August heat wave. With sunny days, light winds, and warm temps, this meant the snowpack would be softening up very quickly. And this presented a perfect opportunity for me to pull out the (poor mans) POW board. At the end of last season, i made a huge impulse buy on a Nitro POW board that i had been eyeing of....

G'day all! Today was Day 14 of my Aussie season, and Spring has sprung VERY early this year. We are going through a mid winter "heatwave" with some unseasonably warm days.

G'day all! Winters finally back, and that means the Snowboard comes back out from storage. Its been another slow start to the season this year, with very little natural snow.
