 Billabong Slopestyle ran over the first weekend in August at one of NZ's most beautiful snow playgrounds in Wanaka - Snowpark. The event attracted a mish mash of people including Billabong NZ crew, Billabong OZ crew, Billabong riders, some of the biggest snowboarders from around the world, DJ's, media, Queenstowners and some serious snowboarding lovers.

I heart Queenstown big time so Friday lunch time I was jacked up with excitement about my trip down south!

Counting down and only 2 more sleeps til the Billabong Slopestyle in Wanaka.

The snow is falling heavy and fast and I'm amped to get back up to Snowpark for my second ever Billabong snow event. The last time I was there 2 years ago was one of my first times on a snowboard so this time I'm fully equipped and ready for action.

Ok this is my last Winterfest blog post I promise!

My afternoon at Amisfield Vineyard was one of the most memorable times I had at Queenstown this year. Deni Bevin picked me up and we first headed for a stroll along Lake Hayes with his puppy Jedi. The lake was so still it was like a mirror image of the mountains and made for some beautiful photos.

So I might still need a learners sticker on my snowboard but I certainly looked the part on the mountain thanks to Burton Snowboards and Higher Ground. (Big ups Mr Alty for helping a snow girl out!)
