Australian winter sport athletes will soon have a major competitive advantage with the first jumps being taken this week on the world class dry slope airbag at the new Snow Australia National Snowsport Training Centre (NSTC) in Jindabyne.
Stage 1 of the National Snowsports Training Centre has seen construction of an Olympic sized dry slope airbag jump along with preparation works for the smaller development bag Stage 2 will see a significant upgrade and expansion of the Jindabyne Sport and Recreation Centre which will commence early in the new year. Minister for Sport Natalie Ward said the National Snowsports Training Centre would enable winter sport athletes to train year-round, providing an edge against their international competitors. âWith just over 50 days until the start of the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics, excitement is building that our winter sports athletes will continue our proud history of success at the Olympics,â Mrs Ward said. âThe commissioning and testing of the airbag at the National Snowsports Training Centre is an exciting milestone in a project that will be a game-changer for Australian winter sport. âIn years to come we will look back at the NSW Governmentâs investment in this facility and directly attribute Olympic and World Championship medals.â Dear TBR Families,
In mixed news for the program, Mt Buller Lift Operations and the TBR Program resumed today for athletes living in regional areas. Fingers crossed athletes living in the Melbourne Metropolitan area will be able to join us again soon. A big thankyou to the Buller Ski Lifts Outdoor Operations team who did great work during the current lockdown period building athlete facilities and maintaining the runs for when operations could commence. Mogul and Terrain Park facilities are now open for training, and today we had 14 lifts turning. Events Update - jNats & Buller Slopestyle postponed Unfortunately due to the uncertainty regarding Melbourne heading out of lockdown this Thursday night, both the jNats and Mt Buller Slopestyle events have been postponed. Once new dates have been confirmed we will let everyone know ASAP. FreeBOM In more positive news, FreeBOM is back! See article below for more information. Fingers crossed we will all be out of lockdown soon, with FreeBOM our first big event of the season. Victorian Interschools An update sent out this afternoon by the event confirmed the following Subject to Government directive and approval, the intent remains from all stakeholders to conduct the 2021 Mogul Ski World Victorian Interschools Snowsports Championships from August 23-29 as scheduled. We recognise there is significant uncertainty, however we remain committed to providing a safe and aspirational event experience for our Interschools snowsports community. On this basis a decision on whether the event proceeds on the August 23-29 dates will be made no later than Monday 16th August. Looking forward to having everyone back up here soon! Regards, Andrew Pattison, TBR Manager FreeBOM is back! We've missed this awesome event that brings the Mt Buller ski community together. This year with plenty of snow on Wood Run the event is looking great. Sign up now to Ski, Spectate or Volunteer and join us to GET ANIMAL! For those that have never FreeBOMed FreeBOM asks competitors and spectators alike to free their animal spirit as we celebrate a day on Mt Buller with skiing and music. FreeBOM nourishes the Mt Buller community through inclusion and collaboration. At its core the event is about bringing people together to freeski with music. CHECK OUT THE 2019 VIDEO EDIT FreeBOM is open to all skiers of any age or discipline. FreeBOM asks competitors to ski with grace, passion and dance the line between chaos and control. The format is relaxed, competitors are required to ski down in front of judges, showing off their interpretation of FreeBOM and the Hot Dog philosophy. Prizes are awarded to all ages and genders based on skiing, dressing, airing, falling and FreeBOMing. Bull Run Bowl’s Natural Amphitheatre is the venue and Wood Run the stage. Bumps, a bustling crowd, music and a chairlift over head shape this once in a season atmosphere. In the event of lockdown In the event of a lockdown that forces us to cancel the event or prevents some people from attending, we will refund all tickets to those that miss out.

RE: Extension of TBR Program How great to see so much terrain open and excellent conditions on snow since we came out of lockdown! We now look forward to working with the mountain to build facilities for TBR training and the events coming up later in the month. As a result of the latest Victorian Government lockdown from Friday the 16th of July until Tuesday the 27th July TBR Programs were required to be paused. We are mindful many of our TBR participants and their families have had limited opportunities to train this winter and last due to the impact of the pandemic. To give our TBR athletes the opportunity to catch up on the days missed on snow, TBR will extend the programs later into spring through to Saturday September 25. Further information will be sent to each TBR package area on how the days missed will be utilised. We look forward to a big spring, with favourable snow conditions thanks to a one metre base,more snow in the forecast, and a number of events on the calendar. Regards, Andrew Pattison, TBR Manager We're back!
TBR training will resume Wednesday July 28! Please see below the current key dates Event News - TBR Social Outing cancelled, will look to run later in the season combined with the TBR Awards. With the TBR program to be extended into the September School Holidays, it will likely take place during this time at Mt Buller. - The jNats will be postponed to a new date. - ABOM Mogul Challenge TBC, update in the next few weeks.
