Ran into a friend of mine from high school. He now teaches snowboarding up at waterville valley. He offered to give me some lessons so I’ll be sure to take him up on that this winter.

I hate winter... 2 weeks ago

I want a sport to make me enjoy it. I enjoy falling down and getting back up again… it makes me feel relentless when I can battle the forces of nature and the laws of physics and somehow… someday, I will be able to work with them to accomplish this goal. Plus, you don’t realize how much of a workout you are getting when you are learning and performing a sport, and I like the idea of that. Anything to keep my body moving and my brain happy.

It costs money tho.. uggggggggg

Once you get over falling, it is the most fun you’ve ever had!

Decisions, decisions. 3 weeks ago

The two nearest places I’d consider learning are Ski Rossendale or Chill Factore in Manchester. Ski Rossendale is a dry slope and a great deal cheaper than Chill Factore which is a fat slope covered in real snow. I was thinking of learning the basics at Rossendale and then heading over to Chill to actually get some snowboarding done. Just cruising around is affordable there but there lessons aren’t. Perhaps I could get a package for Christmas or my birthday? I wanna go on a snow holiday and it makes more sense to learn before I go as opposed to learning when I’m on the mountain.



im excited because.. 4 weeks ago

im doing this this winter!



tried when I was 18 4 weeks ago

I did it on the bunny slopes, fell on my ass a bunch of times and just gave up. Why? Because my ass hurt and I hated not doing as well as others. But now I’m older, and would just like to do it before I turn so old I regret it.



Stephie85 A new person as of today. Today is a new day. :)

This winter 1 month ago

I skateboard and i want to learn how to snowboard… My friends and me are going to head out to a hill and learn this winter. I’ve been told that if i like skateboarding, i would like snowboarding. It looks cool, and looks better than skiing…we’ll see….
