Earlier this week, Huey supplied fresh powder stashes, cyclonic winds, fanning freshies and parted the clouds on Wednesday for an uninhibited day of blue bird powder shredding for all who were lucky enough to visit Thredbo.

Hailing from Southern California, and in search of stoke, Spring Break Snowboards Ambassador Alex “Ozman” Scott set out in search of #deepparadise to crank some #tropicalturns. Ozman is visiting his home land of Australia en route to NZ for a few days of helicopter tomfoolery, before returning to his new home town of Lake Tahoe to handcraft more snowboards to slash the slush and carve the pow.

Thankfully, the last minute gamble to head for the Aussie hills paid off. Here is the photo proof of what ensued…
