The mystique surrounding an endless winter is hard to understand for those that don't snowboard or ski. Going from one hemisphere's unforgiving and relentless winter to the other might seem like a brutal punishment, rather than and epic journey filled with good times, snowstorms and friends.

This is my third neversummer in the Southern part of the world, but only my first in Australia. For years I have heard about how fun Mt Buller was from my good friend and fellow competitor Ratty Sheidow, but I have never had the opportunity to experience it myself until now.
I arrived at Buller within 48 hours of arriving in Australia and it has been one good time after another with a tight knit mountain family. Whether there is fresh snow or heaps of man made goodness, we manage to have an amazing time. Up until now, many aspects of snowboarding concern the snow conditions and mountainous terrain. At Buller that all comes second to having a great crew surrounding you.

Here we mob around the mountain laughing, buttering, smashing box and jibbing everything in sight. It pushes you to be a better rider, to not take yourself so seriously, and brings you back to the root of snowboarding... Fun.
