RIDER: Dwayne Wiebe
LOCATION: Snow Park
PHOTOGRAPHER: Jeff Patterson

Dwayne Wiebe gets the cover, at newly opened Snow Park – on which there’s a main feature and Joel Westcot chats with visionary Sam Lee about it all. “Quickfire” grabs Andy Clark, Jah Harris, and Sam Marcotte. In “Trick Tip” Steve Edgecombe shows us a 270-on 270-off rail gap. “Rock Bottom Roadie” follows a jib trip around the country, while “Clubbed” is a complete contrast, taking in Cheeseman, Castle Hill, Temple Basin, Olympus, and Mt.Hutt Heli. The Gallery has shots of Logan Holt, Will J, Dave O’Brien, and Dylan Butt. The “Burton NZ Open” is now full-blown, and attended by recent Olympic Gold medallists Ross Powers and Kelly Clark – who also get mini interviews. “The STS Southern Hemi Battle” is also covered. Aussie ripper Marcus Wehrle gets his own slot in “The Marsupial”, and “Local Ticket” profiles Wanaka crew Tom Willmott, Crispin Lipscomb, and Kazu and Nori. “Fast Forward” checks in with Ted Hanna, Jesse Wilkinson, and Louis Purucker.
