He knew snow like no one else I've ever met and he died fully kitted, in bounds in a big spring slab. Then you see these muppets cruising around on wind loaded back country slopes with jeans tucked into their boots and it makes you realise that ignorance is bliss for many but ill take caution and knowladge any day p.s I've done a bull ride I would like to say its a great 8 seconds but it was more like 3 followed by a hard winding good fun though
  3. costs somewhere 10000 to 12000 nz dollars for overseas students im not 100% sure though because we get subsidised by the govt ( can you believe that) plus you have to buy all your own kit there is an ausie bloke on my intake Ill find out from him later
