snowboard better, snowboard often

I went snowboarding again… and it was awsome (again) :)
guess I could write that here.. it was really great, but not enough to call it more or more often snowboarding. though it is a begin. guess you have to start small, so I did :)

Winter’s Coming… shopping for my season’s pass..!

I bought a “ride” snowboard today. I gave up tryint 4 years ago when I had an accident, but i am determined to try again, wear a helmet this time, and get much more skilled at it.

I absolutely fell in love with snowboarding a couple of years ago, and usually go out west once a year. But now that i’m getting older my parents stopped paying for me to go out west. And now im stuck with driving to north Carolina for shit snow, and one day. It really blows. I dream of transferring colleges and going out west! :)

So I have definitly been trying to make an effort to get out more, and I feel like I am getting better. Now that spring conditions have set in, the snow isn’t the greatest all the time, but there are good days and bad. I’m not checking this one off yet.. but soon.

I did it! I am good! I practiced religiously and I haven’t fell once in the past three weeks! YESS! Anyway, since the season’s over in PA I am going to visit my brother in COLORADO, where the terrain is sooo much better than crappy PA’s. SWEET! No more bruises just from falling down three inches!

For the last year I have been going to whitetail ski resort in PA. I’ve taken lessons, advice, crap from friends trying to “help” me, etc. But it seems I get hurt more and more every thme. Regardless snow isn’t gonna kick me down I am going again this Sat. and will continue to until March…maybe by then I can advance off the bunny slopes…

I am spending this winter season at a ski resort in Britich Colombia, Canada called Big White. I am soo happy to be here this winter considering back east, where I am from there is zero snow accumulation. Yet, I still find it hard to get up and be outside for the first lift. I feel like a beginner eventhough I have been out more this season than the past couple of years.
So in this case, I need to add this as a goal.
I need to make myself get out there and get to be a better snowboarder. I’ve got aprox. 2.5 months to achieve this goal before the mountain closes and I have to head home.

Hopefully seeing this on my list will kick myself in the ass to get out there!!
