Boost SNOSHO! Update 1

Max Cookes testing the jump. 180 Backside Indy Double Pump.

OK, whats been going on here at POP? And where is “here at POP”? Usually based around Melbourne we have taken ourselves north for the weekend! This weekend is the Boost SnoSho at Perisher so we’ve come along to help out. We made a mad dash for the border Thursday and have been working ever since. Last night we were given an inside tour of the next three days of the event and it is looking amazing! This morning our Ed (Rick) is on the course with our good friend Dan Himbrechts setting up to bring us photos like the one above. This afternoon is the qualifying round or as I like to call it, the disqualifying round. Almost every rider on the list deserves a place, and with a chance for the winner to take the 10k in the longest rail contest there will be a lot of pressure. Its going to start 3ish so if you’re in the area, drop by. We’ll have more updates tonight after 9pm, so check back then! Later!
