Hi, I started "snowboarding" 5 years ago when I married. My spouse is skiing and don't wanted keep him at home just because I always hated cold weather and snow.
So here we are now, last April I bought a season pass just to get to the snow as often we can
And in the last season I bought my first snowboard.
I used the quote marks in my first sentence because in the first years, I literally did nothing snowboarding, just sitting in the snow, or facing up the hill did falling leafs. I am not a super fast learner, for sure. I took couple of lessons, occasionally and I always improved something. I just want to learn always something new and enjoy to be out there. My wish is to learn in the future that 360 degree rotating
I have terrible fear of heights so unfortunately we are going only to ski area where there is a gondola or aerial tramway (the closed cabin) that go to some station where there is a green trail down and long enough for me to enjoy. Northstar, Keystone are my favorites and in this year I hope I can try the Vail where I see in the trail map a gondola with some longer green run down. I also like the Heavenly (good hotels nearby). I love the locals but they never have gondola so I have to walk up the hill :laugh2:
Used to snowboard in Austria and in CO, CA and NV.
