What Is Power Balance?

When Power Balance comes in contact with the body’s energy field, it resonates at a low-level frequency that improves the flow of energy throughout the body and helps regulate its static energy.  Like a tuning fork, Power Balance creates cellular harmony that allows you to perform at your optimum level.

Hey Everyone,

Are you getting the itch to strap on your snowboard after a long hot summer? Well now is your chance… Head to Mt Baw Baw.

A New Dry Slope has been erected for your year round ripping needs.

What’s Dry Slope?
Dry Slope is a material designed to simulate sliding on the snow, and won’t wreck your skis or snowboard in any way. Think of it as looking a bit like fake grass, but as slippery as the white stuff.

Official launch is Australia Day Weekend – in conjunction with the Down to Earth Festival running 23rd and 24th January.

Awesome activities include: A mad BABs (big airbag) to perfect your Rodeos, Wicked mini terrain park and always fun, dry slope tubing.

Other declared dates for the Dry Slope to be out at this stage are:

February 13-14^{th –} Valentine’s Day Weekend.

March 6-7^th  - Labour Day Weekend

April 3-4^th – Easter Weekend.

Dry Slope activities cost $25 for half day access pass.

With the sprinkling of snow that is falling as we speak, should be loads of FUN!

Check out the photo’s.

So, no excuses, get ahead, grab some mates and learn new skills for the upcoming season.

WHOOP!

Chech out this teaser

With the little amount of snow at Baw Baw at the moment the park guys have done an amazing job keeping most of the features on the mountain in great condition and open ,as you can see from these photos that Shel from Baw Baw kindly sent to me, things are looking fantastic, well done Baw Baw crew. Baw Baw Melbourne’s closest and cheepest mountain is well worth the drive and hit the park. Check out the virtual tour of Mt Baw Baw. Dont forget The Invitional a comp for the Bros not the Pros presented by Mt Baw Baw and RPS on the 22nd August click here for more details

Must say, the quality of the young riders this year was a highlight of the event. Yes Robbie was there and yes Mitch and Alex SMOOOOTHED the rails all arvo and yes Ben ALMOST landed that forward flip on the down, BUT I must admit to see those juniors hit that feature without any hesitation was an inspiration to us older  mature not quite so young guns. A special thanks to TSC for the clip too, is rad…………

First time Battle competitor Robbie Walker made our rail set up look easy all day, landing just about every trick he took on. Was great to see perhaps Australia’s best event rider at Baw Baw and from what we can gather he will be back. Way to go Forum and BB.

Everone loves a novelty cheque, especially DeCampo (3rd) Mitch Willaims (2nd) and Robbie Walker (1st)………….check out those smiles and tell me they didn’t have a great day

Well I no is late but we always leave the best till last. Everyone noes the results, well done Robbie, Mitch, Chris and all the riders that competed in what was a great display of snowboarding. Well done to Tim and the park crew for putting together an amazing stair set in very limited snow. Over all it was a huge weekend and very well done to Forum and Mt Baw Baw on putting together a great comp. Im still trying to put the weekend  together after the masive after party. Im sorry but you will have to wait a little more,  we should have photos and a movie up later, trust me it will be good.

Mt Baw Baw Management put out the invitation to retailers to come and check out the mountain, have lunch & learn about the exciting changes for 2009. The day was to get the ‘influencers’ well informed about the exciting changes that Baw Baw has made to make the mountain more dimensional, with the inclusions of the new freestyle features placed around the mountain and Australia’s 1st Big AirBag  

 45 crew that came up from various stores and were surprised by what they discovered (despite there being little snow!). The afternoon Big AirBag session was a HUGE hit with loads of crew having a go and getting addicted to the adrenaline rush of being able to launch themselves into the air without fear of hurting themselves upon landing! The tunes were pumping and Ralph from Forum was like a big Kid running to top of the in-run so he could have another go!!!

Thanks to stores that were so supportive by taking the time to come up and see what the mountain has to offer - sending staff from many of their stores:

Burton, Forum, SHQ, Helly Hensen, GreenRoom, Anaconda, Islantis, Ski & Board World, Deja Vu, Cactus Black, Rider +, Trigger Bros.

A massive THANKS go to the crew from Baw Baw for putting on a great display of what this little mountain has to offer, with the little amount of snow you can still have heaps of fun at Baw Baw
