It's the end of August and it's time to dust off the skates because the Kangaroo Hoppet is back! The Hoppet is part of the World Loppet series and is a 42km XC ski race. Covid canceled the Hoppet in 2020 and 2021, but nothing can stop it this year! 900 participants have signed up to grace the Bogong High Plains and this week we chatted to at least two of them.

We were very happy to welcome Peter Holmes to the show and have been hoping to catch him for an interview for quite some time. Pete was one of our lecturers at university during our outdoor education studies and opened the door of telemark, nordic and backcountry skiing to many students. We find out where Pete developed his passion for skiing and how he found his love for teaching.  We also get some insight about his business, Nordic Ski adventures, which aims to take guests 'chook footing' to some of the world's most iconic nordic ski destinations.  Pete's longtime friend, Blair Hume, also joins the show to heckle him whilst enjoying a few tinnies, but also shares his own stories about growing up with nothing but three-pin bindings and leather boots.
