BB GoDZilLa Posted May 17, 2004 Author Share Posted May 17, 2004 My biggest regret was to not take any lessons. It looked so damn easy watching everyone just glide down the slopes - how wrong was I. Five years on I've learnt the hard way falling on my face multiple time and dislocating my shoulder. So a tip to all you beginners out there: TAKE LESSONS. Hopefully be goin up to buller every fortnight. Ferni: u not planning to take your gtr up there r u?

West Posted May 17, 2004 Share Posted May 17, 2004 Will stay at Hotham for 4days early Aug, gonna have mad time boarding. Used to take my LINE to Buller ( if you love it, take it everywhere ) but with the button clutch in last year, don't think i'm able to throttle it probly anymore in the snow. Oh also the place i hired ( belong to my boss ) accomodate up to 10 and i've got 5 at the moment, anyone interested joining us? Things would be much cheaper. The house is on Dinner plan by the way. Also like usual i always have heaps of day trip ( one day ) to Buller as well through out the season so hope to catch some of ya up there .

BB GoDZilLa Posted May 17, 2004 Author Share Posted May 17, 2004 Hey Ferni, how u gonna fit the boards in?? Can u get roofrack?? Mate at least the drive home for u will be enjoyable. I'm hoping to get a Delica with some mates if we can find one for the right price. Otherwise I'll just have to scab some rides. Not gonna take the R up there.
