Snow Speak
Your first visit to the snow can feel like you are in another world -
so here’s a few phrases to make you sound like a local!
Let's do après Bourke Street
From the French après (after) and
used to refer to catching up for
a drink or a snack ‘after skiing’.
Après can happen anytime! The name of the main run into the
village. There aren’t trams but it can
get busy in ‘peak hour’ so look both
ways, ski in control and give way!
Kooroora
Shredder
Pron ‘Kuh-roo-rah’ this is the local ‘pub’.
It first opened in the 50s and this year
it is a brand new venue continuing
a long tradition of serving hearty
meals and reviving drinks. Drop in
for lunch or dance until late. Refers to snowboarders who ‘go
shredding’ on the slopes.
“Let’s shred”
Dumping Pow
Snowing heavily. We hope it will be
dumping for your visit! Short for powder. Light, fluffy snow.
