Any one snowboard here?

Who snowboards here?

I just started this season and so fare I've gone 6 times. I've a 5 Mt. pass to breck, keystone, vail, a basen, beaver creek . As of right now I've only gone to keystone and breck. I can't wait to explore vail. I hear they've some sick cliffs and jumps.

I first started to learn on my buddies old old old school K2 and I must say I'm so happy I forked over 300 bucks for a ride, Fleetwood. I can take some of the sickest turns with this fine peace of craftsmanship. At the end of the year I may buy myself a capita, black snowboard of death.

Let me know what you guys ride and where you go.

Cool! I am going to learn this year as well. I have a board (borrowed) and a pass, but so far this is the worst snow ever and there still isnt any in the mountains =\.... But I cant wait to try it out....

I went snowboarding one time in Breckinridge. Yup. Went down the mountain one time. And then never again.

*oh* and I rode a "rental" from the "ski shop". Have you ever heard of that brand? someone told me it was kickass.

My guess is you ended up on your ass all the way down? If it was your first time you should go a few more times. My frist day sucked so bad. My 2nd day I could make it down the Mt. with out falling.

Yeah I fell quite a lot. And I didn't really want to go in the first place... Plus one of my bindings broke on the way down, and I was with my (then) girlfriend's family and didn't have a car to drive back to the shop and have them fix it. It was fun when I was standing up though. And if I didn't live a 3 day drive from the mountains I might go more often and actually get good at it.

yea, i'm 1hr 10 mins from keystone. I'm going up tomarrow all day from 8am to 9pm. I love night boarding.

HELLYEAH I SNOWBOARD!

One word you need to know: STEAMBOAT . Heaven on Earth for snowboarders and skiiers, in my opinion. go get snowed in there for about 4 days, bro.

I've been riding since '95. My first time was at Copper Mtn. - it was rough. Since then, I've ridden most of Wyoming and Colorado - never Vail though. Either Vail or Aspen wouldn't allow boarders until about a year ago. bastards. I'm preparing to conquer Utah this winter. Haven't gone up yet, but I have a condo reserved for the 18th - 19th at Brianhead Resort (Southern Utah) - I'm so stoked I could wet myself.

I need a new board though - I ride a Santa Cruz 147 now, but it's too stubby for freeriding, I used to do more freestyle, but now I'm too old. (Too many concussions running over amateur skiiers, too.) I've had sticks from Burton and Sims, too - be sure to lock up your board - I've had 2 of them jacked!

Jealous,

i've played 1080 snowboarding on N64 and cool boarders on PSX, does that count? :D

lol, i think it does.

And yeah i snowboard, i kicks ass!!! :D

We don't get snow here in Iowa, so I can't snow-anything.











...I'm kidding. We actually do get snow...I think. Well, we haven't had any for the last 4 years, and we haven't had any real snow yet this year so far. Heck, it was 50° today, and will be even warmer tomorrow. December's average temperature is about 15° warmer than October's was. October was a very cold month.
