lifty fun...
oh my god...so there's industrial action which means no internet access in our room until the 24th...
aaaggghhh...
Dalyce my floormate is letting me use her connection every now and then so might be able to do a few updates here and there...
So we've been trained to be lifties and it's currently the pre-season. That means there's a bunch of ski teams that pay megabucks to come to Nakiska and race. Being a lifty is alright...as there's only about 40-60 racers it can be a bit boring...lots of sitting around...I've been taking my ipod and itrip and tuning it into the hut radio as that black eyed peas hump song drives me absolutely insane...
We've found out that Nakiska is 85% man made snow, which kinda sucks...there's definately not enough around to board on on our days off, like today. The snowmaking team is huge and they're constantly up there with so many snow guns going...
Bryan was telling us that apparently the Native indians from the area told them not to build the resort here as it gets too much sun, they ignored them and now they have to make all the snow which costs heaps....talk about stoopid...
Tonight we're going to Banff for a snowboard video launch party. Should be a bit of fun...
