Hey Everyone,

I'm out on the east coast, ripping starting to rip up the new england mountains. Hope to get out west and up to Canada soon as well. Also, I found this pretty cool video for beginner boarders: Freestyle snowboard trick tips, videos and lessons. Learn how to Snowboard from the pros.
Peace,
-Grant

Wow, I dropped out of SB.com about 1-2 years ago, and come to find out today that it's down and has been for a while. A search on Google lead me to killclimbz post on this forum, leading me to join

Been riding since 2002, mostly in the Angel Fire, NM area. Have been to Keystone, CO when they celebrated their 36 hours of riding (2006-2007 season). Look forward to catching up with folks from SB.com and meeting new ones here

Sadly, I missed riding this season, that's right -0- days of riding.

Hey all,

i feel old in here. 43 yrs old, been boarding for 3 yrs, intermediate level now. i'm in Toronto. because of my kids and work i don't get out to the slopes very much but my favourite hill here is Mount St Louis Moonstone (I get out maybe 3 or 4 times a yr). Glad to have found this site after SB.com shut down.

I was given my board and boots last year when I moved to Colorado Springs. My first season was last year, about 15 days at different Colorado spots. This year I've been twice, Monarch and (yesterday) Loveland. Lousy year for snow on CO but I picked two really good days to ride.

Next month I turn 38 but I'm a total newb. No jumps (intentionally), medium speed bombing and I rarely fall now or catch edges.

I'm David from Las Vegas, NV. I've been riding for 5 years or so, but only started taking it seriously this year. There's not much snow down here, and not too many close places to go, so I try to get up when I can. I'm moving up to Reno in the fall so that should make things easier. I'm starting to get more comfortable with riding switch, as well as front 180s and smaller boxes and rails.

Welcome to the forum.

Thanks. At this age an 8 yr difference is quite a lot. I'm not complaining but I do feel it the next day after boarding.
