snowboarding-sally 0 Posted November 14, 2007 Share Posted November 14, 2007 Hi-tech! Making all that lot must be very expensive. Any idea anyone? Surely they don't get that many people to go. I suppose the publicity is worth a lot. Link to post Share on other sites

RobinsonAus 0 Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 In Australia that wouldn't be considered strange at all... Seeing as the lower slopes in Australia are pretty much all man made for half the season. Link to post Share on other sites
