Below are some of my favourite short video clips from recently and over the years...

A prime time TV1 6pm News Story on Ski for Trees
Sometimes when everyone is looking over there it pays to look elsewhere. Found some gems while it appeared everyone was waiting for the chutes.
Fatherhood on a powder day means making the most in a very short space of time so I try to make that time count. 2 runs of snow like this was enough to fill my boots. Happy to pop out of whiteroom to find a clean landing on this one.
Epic stormy powder day in the big chutes at The Remarkables, Queenstown, NZ.
Oh how I have missed spring shreddies! And favourite run of mine in prime spring condition.

Plastic Free July Challenge: not washing my icebreaker merino base layers for the month of July. Partly to see if the naturally odour resistant Merino wool can resist my sweaty scent and partly to raise awareness that washing synthetic clothes like nylon and polyester contributes up to 35% of the primary plastic polluting our oceans. icebreaker has 100% merino clothing and aims to have plastic- free materials by 2023. I’m proud to have been an ambassador for this industry leading brand for over 10 years. Thanks icebreaker for making positive change.
How to land in a bombhole and get whiplash: Step 1 - take an ill-timed morning poo and miss the opening of your favourite lift on a powder day. Step 2 - vent built up froath on run #1 by heading straight to the biggest cliff. Step 3 - directly follow someone elses track. Step 4 - do a whimpy little snow plough just before take off. Follow this steps precisely and your neck will also still hurt two and half weeks later. And yes, my goggles flew off on impact.
I tore my calf muscle while shredding the chutes, hopefully this was not my last run of the season... Ski for Trees is still running. Please help achieve the last stretch goal of 100,000 trees planted and off set your footprint at the same time: peteoswald.co.nz/ski-for-trees
