Now, if people can post up if they're keen or what not itd be great. Dates id be looking to fit it in somewhere between the 15th and 28th of August. If anyone ever wants to go down just for single day trips on Murrays, im more than keen to go as much as possible this year .

Possible alternatives include, if only 3 - 4 people are interesting in going, I can load up the commodore and take that down and we arrange our own accomodation etc.

i would be ok for the one and two day package. Though the one day is pretty pricey considering i have all my own gear

If youre keen on the one dayers, im sure I can organise the commonwhore to transport us down

I have all own gear excluding board/skis, so yeah itd work out cheaper for me too.

i got a spare pair of burton snowboard boots granted they are like 6 - 8 years old plus going off the fact you are a giant i am guessing they may be a little small for you lol they are size 12's if you wanted to borrow them. either way yea if not that many people are interested a small group on a commonwhore or 4wd would be the go i reckon.

[SkyGTRline]

So pretty much...

if we go for the day in somones car.. its $166 for board hire

And $100 for lift..??

So $250-$270. for the day.. plus petrol and food,

[Amaru]

No no, $166 is for the whole day on the bus, that includes lift ticket, board hire etc.

If we went in car, youd need $87 for lift ticket, $50 or so for board hire and money for petrol/food/drinks.

[leech_]

yea whoever drives shouldnt have to pay for petrol i reckon should we take that option everyone else pitches in money for petrol shouldnt be more than $40 - $50 normally.

and lol @ $166 for board hire sorry andy had to do it nobody would pay that much you would go buy your own board.

[Amaru]

Well if anyones interested in going up for a day on the weekend some time soon, let me know. Ill be able to arrange car, just chuck in $10 for fuel or whatever and we should be good

[leech_]

after i have sorted my assignment and done my test which has to be before 27 of july i will be keen to go up

hey ive been sic in bed... and yea... thats it..

actually i take back my lol comment i rang up one place because i want to try the burton baron ES before i buy one and they were like well its a current season board so it will be $105 i was like ejklgdslgslk WHAT THE i thought it would be a max of $70 - 80 bloody rip off. If anyone has links within the snowboarding industry let me know i really want to try one of these boards but am to my of a stooge to pay $105 to hire one. thats like close to 1/10 of the total board

[SkyGTRline]
