27th to 30th

On Sat Marvin, DM Lefty Gray and others came up and had great times. Marvins AK Rockets are fast, fast, very fun skis. I enacted technicians title upon DMs 190 Goats and had a ball. Whilst I did level 2 stuff on Sat the others had a good time and Sid came down and had a ski with Marvin that morning. On Monday morning Marvin and I had a fantastic time. We spent the morning at Guthega in 10 - 20cm deep super dry snow. With the power of his AK rockets and me on DMs 190 Goats we were able to track out Parachute before anyone else got on it. By that stage we were both pretty buggered but managed one last run down through the parachute trees.

As I side note with free pivot you can also kick and glide 190 Goats!

A report with Pics of Monday will be up soon.

Great Skiing over the weekend and Telemark Phat is Liveish

The weekend polished off a week of training little interschools kids. It was tough on my paunch but it was great to see them race after putting a lot of effot into them. Sid and Hermi both got in some great turns, especially Sid who got to enjoy the freshies on Friday and Saturday.

On Monday Marvin and I went for a stroll up Tate East. It was a great day and free pivot rules.

There is a full report over at the liveish www.telemarkphat.org. If any of you guys have anything to contribute to www.telemarkphat.org let me know.

It is dumping like mad!!!!

I just got home from the hill at 8:00pm. Graham and I skied FV between 5:00pm & 6:30. It was boot deep and after each run our tracks were gone! There was snow on the road almost all the way back down. Snow was setteling on the road above Tyrolean Village and my driveway was icey.
It is on tomorrow. Hermi Sack Up you Sook! If you've been waiting for the snow to get good before you come down,... it will be good tomorrow.
Here is a bad pic of what I found when I got home.
