Just wondering if there are any snowkiters that come come down to the NSW ski fields or live down here?? Am interested in meeting some other fellow snow kiters as I go up 3 times a week, every week and have not met any so far however have heard that there are other out there!!!

It's been a bad year for all the NSW regulars...

Lots of us have stuff happening in our lives at the moment that is keeping us away from the snow.

Winter can be hit or miss on the main range anyway, expect there to be a few more bods out and about in Spring.

I'll be around in a couple of weeks

gday Patric thanks for the fast reply and the map.Ive been to most of the places on the map but there are a few on there i have always thought might be good but never been.I might even go to them this weekend (weather permiting) I know what you mean about it being hit and miss at this time of the year,its been fairly bad viability most weekends until last weekend.I had the kite in the air for 14-15 hours over fri/sat/sun,sunny days and winds 20-40 km/h for most of the 3 days.What a weekend!!! Send me a message before you are comming down here, it would be good to go out there with some other kiters

Cheers

Marty

Lots of bods kiting on the Main range this weekend just gone. (Not me - I had to look after sick family - bleh)
Lach and Goldie should have been out and about at least - wind looked good.

Unless I get the same bug as my fam I will be down next Sat-Tue weather permitting.

A few mates just had a great weekend up at the snow ( Grant, Lach + others , I will upload some video when all the editing done, the views up there are amazing, snowboards hurt, I will use skis next time. Lach lost his car keys up top on the first day, we went up the next day and fount them.

Hi everyone.

I am looking at coming down this week around wednesday and thursday.
Is anyone around Thredbo or Perrisher?

Hey people,
Heading down tomorrow to Thredbo tomorrow.
Anyone around?

Hey

Me and a mate will be up there tomorrow catching Kosi Chari at about 9.30am and probably heading towards cocks harbour and mount stillwell. Come over and say hello.

Cheers
Marty

Sweet!
I will be aiming to be there at the same time.
Its my first time at thedbo snowkiting, would be good to get a better guide on where to go.
Do you set up at the top of the lift or walk over?

Hey Marty,

Had a good day out last week. See the pics at ski.com:

sounded like a massive day - next time you get stuck walk up to the australian ski club , they'll always put you up for the night when you're stuck like that-
and the guy at the guthega terminal has never had a good word to say in the 20 years i've known him - been off him for a long while now

Hi everyone.

I have done an update to the NSW snowkiting map.

maps.google.com/maps/ms?msid=207430822816324808184.000441bee2ba4ef95d505&msa=0&ll=-36.048544,148.553009&spn=0.391393,0.727158

Oh, and cheers for the tip Chronic.

Marty, anyone,

I'll likely be on the Main range this weekend, earning some turns if the wind is too light, kiting if it's on.
Staying out there.

Let me know if you are keen for a hookup, I can show you all the good spots.

Cheers,

Pat
