TBR values the importance of building a strong aerial skill base on water and trampoline to maximise on snow performance and minimise the risk of injury. For these reasons, TBR strongly encourages all riders to attend water jump training.

The importance of water jumping cannot be understated.

These days to be competitive at any level of the sport, from Interschools to the Olympics, it is impossible to achieve success without investing in accumulating as many water jump days as possible each year.

TBR water jump sessions are not just about getting upside down for the first time before trying it on snow. Water jumping is the safest way to build your jumping skills from the ground up.

Mt Buller turned on the sunshine and the bumps for the legendary ABOM Mogul Challenge on Saturday 31 August with the action extending into a thrilling night final under new stadium lights.
 
An exciting line up of Australian and international talent kept the crowds gripped with fast and stylish runs on show.   The growth in Asian skiing talent clearly on show with a solid line up of Japanese and Chinese entrants mixing it with the locals.

A number of exciting dual heats saw runs going down to the wire.  The format is a thrilling one for spectators featuring skiers going head to head down 197 metres of bumps with two huge jumps.
 
The men’s event was hotly contested, with a number of the best skiers in the world in action including Olympic Silver Medallist Matt Graham, World Cup medallist Brodie Summers, and World Cup winner Benjamin Cavet of France.
 
It was impressive to see the jumping degree of difficulty step up in the women’s event, especially the Japanese athletes performing jumps not seen before in the women’s field at the ABOM Mogul Challenge.

Brittney Cox was in good form for her 14th event starting the competition back as a Junior in 2005 ultimately taking 2nd place on the podium behind Rino Yanagimoto from Japan in the women’s. Fellow Aussie Olympian Claudia Gueli also had a good run narrowly missing the podium to take 4th place.
 
The men put on a dazzling show with the usual contenders at the top of the table and Brodie Summers ultimately taking the top spot from James Matheson and Matt Graham who hold 6 and 1 previous ABOM title respectively.
 
Current world number three and Mt Buller skier Jakara Anthony unfortunately came unstuck on the top jump in her qualification run, catching her feet in the soft snow with a spectacular fall earning her the biggest crash award.
 
Mt Buller has hosted the ABOM Moguls since 1984 at the height of ‘hot dogging’ and freestyle skiing.  Mt Buller is home to the Olympic freestyle team and the new lighting and improvements to the legendary Chamois run look set to ensure a strong future for the sport.
