Sled to the Summit – NZ backcountry

Pfff, I know it took us a bit too long, but it’s finally out, the first ep. of the Sled to the Summit series. Video after the jump.

Another day, another zone, bigger crew … lucky enough to access a new spot, snow still springy but things looks promising in this new area. Have a look yourself.
No new snow to report on this front, but we headed back to the same spot again, this time with a 2 more riders on the mix, Nick Poohachoff and Stef Zeestraten. All times fun indeed.
So after the first mission, we went back to one spot that really got us pumped, this we were ready to get the snowboards out and get some shots. By the way, we named this zone “7th Heaven”.
Pretty crazy days getting stuff sorted for the sled mission with Robett. Stickers, sled shop, shipping container, plane tickets, customs and the list goes on … and it was still snowing!!!.

I spent a few days with some maps and the GPS. All that work finally paid off and I found a new access to the snow in the Wanaka area. I couldn’t go any further but I’m really excited about it. It’s on for next year.
