Final day

A few words from Interski veteran Willy Boyd……… Well the final day of Interski arrived all too soon, and today’s schedule has allowed us to have a well appreciated sleep in before the last day’s events got underway. First on the list was the Interski...

Wow! It has been a heck of a week. There’s been some eye opening learning happening through the sharing of concepts and methodology. We have had some amazing experiences, creating new friendships and reconnecting with old mates from all over the world. This morning...

A Train of Nations 

Hola from Argentina! Richie Johnston here filling you in with the latest. Hola amigos! A huge week of clinics and socialising has made for an incredible first experience for me and the team in Ushuaia. Cerro Castor Resort has had fresh snow almost every day since we...

SBINZ Representing on the World Stage

Hola de Argentina! Jonsey here at the Fin Del Mundo (End of the world) or as the locals like to call it, El comienzo del mundo (the start of the World). What a place! Well it was another epic day at Cerro Castor resort, the day started off with an exciting bus journey...

Telemark’s perspective

Here is Telemark’s perspective on the conference and resort so far… Ushuaia, the black and white of this place is as contrasting as the way the locals describe their home. ‘We are either at the end of the earth or the beginning’ they say. The streets are...

Getting stuck into it in Ushuaia


POW day!! We didn’t expect to be riding fresh powder through the trees before coming here but that’s what happened this morning. The resort has a really fun mix of terrain ranging from Alps style at top, down to Colorado trees, with some Cardrona Captains...

Race day

The first days of Interski 2015 have passed. I assume those of you who are reading this are up to date on where we are and had a read of Scotty and Mark’s blogs on what Ushuaia is like. In my words it’s like Anchorage meets Bluff. Plus it’s in Argentina so the culture...

The World’s Most Southern Ski Resort

Arriving in Ushuaia is a little surreal. You land at an isolated airport right on the water front, looking across to a compact town situated below a range of formidable looking mountains. The port of Ushuaia serves as South America’s gateway to Antartica. As a...

We have arrived

Well, we made it! Four flights and five airports later the team arrived into Ushuaia at 8.30 am this morning. We had a great trip and the guys made the most of the long airport transits. The Auckland Airport board room provided a very productive venue for some final...
