Anyone else here snowboard? I’m heading to the slope tomorrow, but not really in the mood for it. I’m not that good and always falling on my ass, ugh. When I get home i’m going to be really tired though.
I haven’t Snowboard in about 2 years but I use to do it regularly during the snowboarding/skiing season. Gonna go for the first time this year in a couple weeks with a shit load of friends and half of them its going to be their first time that should be fun =)
My friend broke his collarbone and separated his shoulder a few days ago in a snowboarding accident.
That happened to me during my first season. I became better during the next season and it felt pretty rewarding. Still, I hate going up on the ski lift that takes FOREVER. I’d rather just ride downhill for a good half hour like in Sonic Adventure or some shit. I tried to learn how to ski this year. You can go faster on skis than you can on a snowboard, but I still don’t know how to stop. It’s also easier to control, but that’s just my opinion.
i’m going back to whistler for 2 weeks on the 19th of Jan. i’m so fuckin pumped to try and nail some rotations, i’m going for than 540 this time. last time i tried a 360 i only made it 270 around. snowboarding is all about goofing off with your mates and cruising the powder.
For me, snowboarding is as good as sex.
Signed. Snowboarding is awesome. I try to get out as many times as possible a year, and I’m planning a couple big trips to the mountains with my friends. Should be a good year for it.
Skied ever since I was 5 then started snowboarding sometime in high school. Pretty much a lifetime in the snow!
I go to Mammoth mountain a few times a year with my uncle and sister. I’m actually heading there again in a couple weeks. Might have to relearn how to carve, though.
went snowboarding last week. its snowboarding season in mass…my skateboards waiting for spring. in mass u become shawn white lol. snowboarding does take alot out of you and it doesnt seem like it would at first site either.
If you aren’t used to it, it really burns your quads out, FAST.
I haven’t gone in 4 years now and I’m getting angry. I really miss it. I don’t really ride parks, though. I prefer just cruising the trails and getting yelled at by ski patrol for going too fast.
What the hell you guys have ski patrol that yell at you for that shit?
BUMP
So I am going this Saturday and I haven’t gone for like 3 years. So I need new gear, that mean I need to find something nice and cheap. Help me out here…
Nicest things I think I own for snowboarding are my Bonfire pants / jacket. Shit keeps me warm and dry. Makes the trip 100x more enjoyable. Gloves are always nice, too.
Where can I find that, beside online cause I am going in a couple of days.
I am snowboarding for more than 10 years now… I used to go there pretty much every weekend when lived in Europe…
I am probably going to Niigata on the 19th. I couldn’t ride much last season as there was no snow in Japan last year.
But I am getting old… the tricks are harder and harder to land… -_-’

and look for a store near you to check out what you can…
tried it twice. Picked it up really quick my first trip to the slope but my dislike for cold weather has kept me from pursuing it. I’ll stick to skateboarding.
I went for my first time two weeks ago. It was awesome, I loved it. I’m definitely going either this weekend coming up or the one after. I was actually thinking about making a snowboard thread but never got around to it.:lol:
im looking to pick a board off the site i posted and will hopefully be back to snowboarding mid february.
