Australian professional snowboarder Jye Kearney gets thrown into an adventure that bucks him from the norm of his usual routine. From Christchurch Airport, the crew make their way to Mount Hutt, Canterbury's largest resort for some mind boggling spring park wizardry..the atmosphere changes rapidly however when the biggest storm of the year hits and blankets the whole Canterbury region with a foot of fresh snow. This leads the crew to Mount Olympus, where Jye recounts his tale of riding a 'nutcracker' rope tow.

Needless to say, Jye is once again smiling from ear to ear as the crew build some interesting features and get creative in arguably one of the most beautiful places to snowboard downunder. Spring rules!
