On one of the runs I see Alan signal with his right hand to some sort of drop off marked by an orange hazard pole by the good people of Charlotte Pass Snow Resort. I saw the drop off and thought his signal had meant “take the jump”, because he was in front of me and could probably see the landing even though I couldn’t. I’ve snowboarded with Alan a lot, surely he wouldn’t lead me astray, would he? So I take the jump, and lets just say the resulting stack was rather hilarious… but I didn’t have the GoPro running, so I do it again!
Turns out he was only signalling to turn right rather than take this obviously awkward jump, but it was a stack (pun intended) of fun and made for a great out-takes video anyway. We round out the day by hitting each remaining lift once (though with only 4 this is much easier than at Perisher). Thanks Charlotte Pass for a great value day-tripper and a stellar end to my week on the slopes!
