my 14 year old son was lucky enough to be riding with nathen this week. He had a week that he will never forget. The improvement in his riding has been nothing short of awesome. I cant speak highly enough of nathen as a bloke and man can he still ride! i know for a fact that his back tyre was completely bald on this ride! Queenstown is such a great place and has got a vibe you just have to experience.

$2k for a week with Rennie is a bargain! Hope he does a few more clinics

I lived in Queenstown for 16 months, it does have some awesome trails, I rode all those in the vids lots of times bar the heli-trail, the night life there is also pretty fun, no mention of just how ludicrazily expensive everything is there though! :-O And for me, none of the many well manicured trails in Queenstown match the fun and technicality of the rough and loose dh trails in the Uk!

Actually, alcohol is quite cheap in QT, it's set up for tourists, so most bars have to discount to get the patrons in. Housing/accommodation is expensive, the rest is no different to living that far from a main city

eh the discounts seem a lot better than they are. The drinks in bars most of the time are mixed up super weak from my experience... unless you go to cowboy bar. The mega mug is a killer deal!
