Posted around the forum a bit already, just found this thread.
I'm 34, grew up in Indonesia and moved to the us in 2000. I live in Houston and initially learned to snowboard at Brighton, in 2003 while on a trip to visit my mom. Ever since then I was hooked, and kept on returning every season for one trip, sometimes twice. So you can imagine my learning rate isn't phenomenal. Good thing is, the learning period gets shorter every year I go. I stopped going around 2007/8 due to stuff (broke college student, taking motorcycle touring trips instead on the cheap, etc...). Anyway, I started going again last year. Made a spur of the moment decision to fly up to Denver and snowboard for a day at Keystone. It was bluebird, a bit slushy and icy but it was an incredible amount of fun. Slapped myself around a bit for waiting this long to go again, but it seems like I didn't forget much... I think I even got better somehow.
First trip of this season coming up in a few days, finally on my own board. Flying to SLC and driving up to Jackson to hang out with some family and ride Snow King Mtn for a couple days (cheap tickets is the main reason). Then driving back down to Park City to meet up with my best friend and ride Park City for ~4 days out of 7. I'm more excited than a lab at a dog park right now...
Nice to meet everybody.
