It made me
Happy but in pain! 
How I did it: I've allways wanted to try it, it looks so cool... ;) So, one day; me and my friend changed gear, she got my twintips and I got her snowboard. In the beggining I couldn't even walk with it but later I even knew how to ride the lift :D (I'm very proud of myself! ;)) But when I wanted to get down from the top of the mountain I got some more trouble... I feel all the time! Couldn't stand on the f***ing board for more that five seconds in the… Read how I did it…
It made me
How I did it: Got some lessons at the mountain, went with somefriends for support, banged up my knees, but had a great time. Let's see, renting a board is good, so you don't have the big commitment of buying one. Same with some of the gear. I'm assuming you like outdoor sports if you are wishing to do this, soyou probably like winter and have the coat and whatnot. Read how I did it…

I want to try snowboarding, but as here is no mountain nearby I won’t be easy.
I think I am going to try indoor snowboarding.

I have no delusions that this will be something I actually enjoy and wish to continue. I just want to try it. At least once.

Right now, at this very moment, it is still summer. I’m going to have to wait for snow to actually come in the winter for this goal to happen. Just put it here to remind myself. My cousins snowboard and I am pretty sure they’re willing to teach me if I asked once winter comes along.

Word to the wise: If you plan on going off a jump, make sure you physically jump at the end of the ramp. If you don’t, your feet will go straight towards the sky and you’ll land flat on your back, get the wind knocked out of you, and have to see a chiropractor for a year. Just trust me on this one…

It was amazing when it actually snows while your on the hill. I’ve only done the bunny slopes but I recomend it. I’m not even that good, but it’s fun.

I’ve never done a winter sport. This one, I think, would be exhilarating. It’s a three-hour drive. I can do this, and I’ll love doing this. Would like to do by age 30.

I live in Colorado, & have all my life…one would think that I’d have done this by now.
Most think us Colorado-dwellers either grow up on the slopes or that we’re on them as soon as we can walk…
