I'd try AJAYS in Heathmont, you could give it a go now as they may have some stuff still on sale but most shops will have the new stock in and you'd be paying top dollar.  Don't buy during ski season would be my advice.

yeah Pauls shop is up in Albury, although you could always drop in there on your way to the snow next.

Mate ,can I suggest trying a few different boards on the snow, maybe look out for the "demo days" where you can sus out heaps of boards for little or no cost.
 IMHO thats gotta be better than playing with it in the shop and trying to imagine what it will ride like :)
