1|9|05 That was a day. After having fresh snow and all races and competitions cancelled the day before there was the rail- and bigair-contest. Well, judge for yourself ;). And besides, for the experts, I'll do now a cab 5 on bigairs ;). Yeah!

1|9|05 There is the little picnic table for the rail contest. The other rail comes behind. The Big Air contest was great. I did my first frontside 540s on purpose and I got even more addicted to snowboarding. Perhaps I should spend my September break in New Zealand for some turns and jumps ;).

And so I got "best dressed male" at this evening ;). Nice! I think I can get used to it :). *kidding*

31|8|05 at night. The party had to be good after such an amazing powder day. Being tipsy open doors to everywhere :).

31|8|05 Yes you can ;)! After a day of cancelled events such as boarder cross we had an awesome powder day ;). Yeah! I loved it!

29|8|05 ...then there was Thredbo. Indeed, I thought the season is almost over and the snow was alright for the GS but at the end there wasn't much. Can you be surprised in Autralia!?

28|8|05 After a night without sleep because of a due date in an assignment I enjoyed the sunset from my balcony. Well, I tried ;) because I still had to pack and got picked up an hour later. But...

26|8|05 to 27|8|05 If you go out you should have fun. Ok, there is so much to see and to eat in Melbourne. Just give it a try with a bite ;). Chris in Melbourne's Chinatown

27|8|05 Sometimes things are so simple :). Simple? Yes. That was what I could read in the sky from my balcony while I took a sun bath ;).

23|1|2005 Coyoacán. Write a guess into the comments what do you think that is ;).

Ok,

ich denke, ich werde es nicht hinbekommen, alle meine Erlebnisse, die ich bisher hatte zusammenzufassen. Eigentlich wollte ich das schon seit Monaten machen, aber das hat nie hingehauen. Also mach ich einfach mal einen Anfang und schreibe, was ich jetzt mache bzw. die letzten zwei Wochen gemacht habe.

Also am Wochenende um den 13.8.05 war ich mal wieder snowboarden auf Mt.Hotham. Ja, es gibt in Australien Schnee und ich muss natürlich meiner Sucht nachgehen. Habe mir für das Gebiet auch einen Season-Pass geholt, da ich den günstig bekommen hatte.

Gut soweit, es gab einen offen Big Air Contest, bei dem ich mir doch gleich mal etwas Knorpel an den Rippen angeknackst habe. Ich sage euch, das schmerzt. Aber mit etwas Physiotherapy läuft es immer besser und besser. Jetzt bin ich schon fast wieder fit für die Australian Uni Championships im Snowboarden in Thredbo nächste Woche. Am Sonntag geht es los. Der Grand Slalom wieder easy, aber dann steht wieder ein Big-Air-Contest und sogar ein Rail-Contest an. Ich kann es schon kaum erwarten.

So, jetzt habe ich mich mal wieder genug von der Uni gedrückt.

Genießt die Bilder,
Euer Chris
