Hi All!!!! I'm new to snowboarding this year - LOVE it!!! I'm kinda old for it (mid-40's) but so much easier for me than skiing (tele the last year - I kind of plateaued). Loved skateboarding but a broken arm as a kid and last year tore some knee soft tissue (non-permanent) longboarding made me give that up for good.
Started with lessons last month and I'm now on to working tight turns on steeps (to me) and back to the bunny slope to practice switch... hope to learn tricks on the flats soon without killing myself... Gotta say I just love doing helicopters down the edge of the run!!!!! Gear: A bunch of Ride stuff I got cheap at REI online |

I've never been able to convince myself to get on a skateboard for longer than several feet - have witnessed my friends get too many bloody gashes and the sound of limbs cracking on asphalt is hard to shake Snowboarding was the obvious choice of the two. (But I was eyeing up those longboards just the other day...)Hope you have fun this season! |

I'm 28 and grew up in Colorado Springs, CO. My main mountain of riding was Keystone. I skiied for about 8 years and have now been boarding for 14 years. I taught snowboarding as a level 1 AASI certified snowboard instructor at Sundance Ski Resort for 4 seasons. I was a mountain rep for Nidecker snowboards for 2 years and I have 6 semi-professional sponsors. I love snowboarding more than pretty much anything else in the world. As a former instructor and current competitor I am all for the education and advancement of snowboarding

Hey all! I'm from Texas and love riding. As I am 40 years old, I am not in the group of riding rails, riding the super pipe, but I have not lost my love of being on the snow, and riding as fast as I can.
As I only have 5 years of riding, I do have my own gear. I ride a Never Summer Legacy board with Burton Mission bindings. I am looking to upgrade my boots and bindings either this year or next, but am interested in looking at what might be best, and not what the board shop would offer due to being on sale... Thanks for allowing more "seasoned" riders to join the discussion! |
