Except one year for us. We skied one of Queenstown’s most pathetic seasons whilst Falls and Hotham (where we usually skied) had one of their best seasons ever!
Yep …. that’s what happens if you let aussies on the slopes 😂😂😂 I am Swiss, so skiing is a given, but a have given the slopes (and the kooks) a miss for the last 30 years. I go touring instead, you know: Walking up the mountain first on your skis until you’re totally knackered and then ski downhill…and yes I did have ACL repair…..
@@sheridans6399 Video opens at 0:00 mins with Jimmy in a Demons scarf and beanie. (Melbourne AFL club.) A long running joke for decades - no doubt based on truth - is that their supporter numbers in the Winter footy season dwindle. As so many families are 'up at the snow' 😁
Total scream. Love ya Jimmy! You got us through covid and it's still laughter, irony and comedic genius that's getting us through these troubled times. Great medicine.
This is probably how a couple of relatives of mine would explain skiing. My great paternal uncle was a cross-country ski he accidentally ran into a rock or tree and died on the Mount Buffalo ski field in the late 1980s. His de facto wife is a ski instructor and their daughter manages to bet a couple Canadians in a junior ski competition. They were pretty surprises an Australian can bet them.
Hahahaha - the first time I ever went skiing, on the second night I prayed God would make my legs not work so I could get out of it. By the fifth day (we were from Qld) I was hooked and keen to come back the following year.
this is the case for most distracting overpriced thing that people hype. They don't want you to have a simple healthy sound life and money saved; they want everyone in debt going to overpriced day trips or vacations to keep up with the Joneses.
I went skiing once on a school trip. Only time I have been skiing. Many hours on the bus because the highway was closed. I cannot remember if it was closed because of fires or landslide. On the way home the breaks on the bus failed so spent ages outside Maccas waiting for a new bus to take us the rest of the way home. Took forever to get there. Took forever to get home. Remember that more then the actual skiing.
@noturbo That was the T-Bar Tow. And someone forgot to tell you to lean back a bit, with your weight on your heels. Indignity and Skiing Go Hand-in-hand 😁
Hahahahaha soooooooo true 😂😂😂
But they say, its cheaper to fly to NZ to ski then it is to drive to an Alpine area in Australia 😂
So true, & your $'s go a bit further too.

😂 - never seen the fun in skiing, now this just proved my disinterest further!
The Melbourne Dees supporter reference! 😂
I must have missed it? (I have the flu so yeah...)

@@comealongcomealong4480 Thank you!
You've just described my first and only time snow skiing 😬
So true! 😂 Even more fun ($$$$) when you take the kids!
Queenstown NZ relies on this mentality 😂

I did it once... did in my knee cap. Pretty to look at... but that's it for me.

Try adding the flight to Canada (Australia is crap skiing and NZ you can't even stay on the snow - so boring AF)
Japan > Canada (I haven't skied, but like you get Onigiri in the 7/11s)
Do you some kids called Oliver and Oscar???? 😅
Never been, cant afford to go. I'll stick to swimming.
....and 40 years later I'm still punishing myself 😒
I having never been skiing but I love the snow.
Excellent again Jimmy 😅
so funny! ive been skiing and this so so true!
Skiing in Australia is definitely for mugs with too much money!
You're really selling me

Summed it up in one. Great video as always Jimmy, thank you.
