an announcement announcing a whole lot of nothing imo. nothing new.
Positive outlook, just What the new management at Thredbo need to see to spur them on(not).
There is a whole new B track %95 complete, so that in itself is something new. Last year saw new jumps and features added to old faithful, and now with a new B track, the DH track can get a bit more serious.
There's new upper management at Thredbo, with a very positive attitude towards MTB. Not sure of this years pricing, but Thredbo will be well worth a visit this year. I'd say more than once, as it will be constantly evolving. Hopefully a third gravity track will be in the works this year too. I'd like to just see the two tracks that are already there get all the love this year myself.
With a big business like Thredbo, the written jargon will always be written by marketing or something, and not have the correct terminology, or say the right stuff. But I know there's a solid group of at least 5 staff that are on the ground doing track work, and they're keen as, and have had their leashes lengthened, and support given to help comply with National parks requests.
In short. This will be the best year so far for Thredbo, and that statement should apply for the next few years at least, hopefully for ever.
