Why is the BW forum always a lot busier than tha Banff one? Anyway, anyone concerned out there about the organisation of the course...don't be. We got us Dunk on the case! Ex-armed forces man Dunk gets very upset if things do not run with military precision and there is "no man left behind"

Trev, good to hear from you - I imagine we'll be seeing you working as a ski instructor in BW next season? You been working this winter in Oz?

Guys, with TRG (Trev), you are in the presence of a legend. On the SnowSkool course last season, he passed his CSIA Level 1 and Level 2 Instructor, CSIA Park & Pipe AND his CSCF Race Coach exams!

hi dunk think your right , Trev GOD !!!!!!! phil needs to half the dosage haha
well all you guys coming from england , its best to stick with the snowskool plan and travel with whole group this worked reasonably well and was well cordinated, apart from the delay we had last year everything worked well ( the delay was caused by severe weather and even Phil or God (trev) could not help that )
the people who are coming from other directions will need to consider whether they are direct flights or lots of stopover points you will save money on multiple stops but the time you are travelling is obviously longer and speaking to kat and a couple others they where extremely exhausted so food for thought !!!!!

well dunk i hope all is going well and see you all in big white i think me and god will definatley be there !!!!!!!!!

Ok guys you can settle down. Cool

Just so that everybody knows I am currently working as a ski instructor at Mt Hotham Australia. Yesterday and last night it snowed and snowed and snowed so today was a POWDER day.....Yes a powder day in Australia. So I thought I'd rub that in. Twisted Evil

So if anyone is in Australia drop in to Mt Hotham and I'd be happy to chat about Canada and the S/skool program and what you have to look forward to.

Till next time hang in there while I enjoy the snow Laughing

Hey everyone...

For those that know me, what's up? and get ur ass to big white for '07-'08 season.

Should be working as a snowboard instructor this year!! Been in contact wit Chucky and Bill, references have been sent! Hopefully a j.o.b offer soon!!

For the NewCrew:
What an amazing place! Accommodation is A1 and if you get the "Penthouse" then enjoy!!
So may good runs, snow is unbelievable, especially if you've only been to Europe before (It was my first time in Canada last year)

Night life: Good time ahead! usually v-messy!!
Good mix of people. Not bad on the 'sexy snowboard chick' front as well.
Pretty even ratio!

Hot tub heaven!! remember its better between the hours of 2-3am!!!!!!

If he's there. Frazzle is your man for filming/pictures!! check out his videos on snowskool myspace. He could be working at quick pic's.
Not sure as yet..

Catch you all L8er.

Australia is looking like having a record season. I was skiing some powder today and I was in some powder up to my thigh.
It's not quiet as light as the champagne powder-skiing at Big White but you'll get some good practice for B.W.
