Nice. I rode a Ride Cue for the past two years, it's what I learned on. great board, never did me wrong. how many times have you been up? I live 3 hours away from the mtns...today was 17 for me.

yeah I was young. I was really really good as a kid..but I stopped when I moved away. since then I've just rented boards and relied on muscle memory...I'm not bad. definitely not as good as my younger self.


have you seen the vid I posted in the vid section?

welp I'm addicted. I'm considering moving to B.C. Canada just for some of the worlds best boarding. well not just for that..free health care, great pot, neutrality. if Hillary gets the vote, you can bet your *** I'll be boarding the slopes of Whistler before she can mutter the first word of her inaugural address.

I've only been twice this year!!!! SUCKS. I live in arizona though and the closest decent riding for me is 4 hours away. Normally i'm there every weekend but this year with work and money it's not happeneing as much as i would like it. I hope to get the B.C. later on this year as well as a Utah trip. I wish i lived in CO man that'd be my living!!!!! I don't think i'd do anything else so i'd have to get paid for it. LOL

it's hard to learn, but I know a lot of skiers that started boarding and they love it. they say snowboarding is much more fun on the regular slopes, because you can mess around more (presses, buttering, small spins, etc).


I only go about 30 times a season if I'm lucky.
