snowboard talk/BS

Is this for the 2011 or 2012 gear???

 

Support your local snowboard shops. Go in there and talk with one of the sales guys (some times they can be pricks but the advice will be worth it). They will be able to gauge what size board you actually need depending on your skill level.

I would definitely go a few times before you go blow $1k on snow gear. Take your time and have fun. I have been snowboarding for 14 years, spent a few years sponsored locally. Grew up riding in WA now living in Reno. Riding Tahoe and loving it. Mts are sick here, if you have never ridden on the west coast your missing out big.

 

its so cold here right now it just needs to snow!

 

dude i know it was like 65 yesterday. i was pissed for some reason.

 

wish it would get cold here.. still like 105. lol our season doesnt start till like around Xmas.

 

I hear that. Gotta love our high desert climates right?

 

shit.. i love it for about 9 months out of the year, but when it comes time for boarding season.. it blows. lol

 

No its last years gear but a good deal on pants and other stuff

 

50% last years gear is a great deal I'd be all over that if I didn't have new gear from last year lol

 

are slope opens around the first week in december. and and goes to march. this year they closed in feb tho. we had a like a week in the 60’s and it melted and did not get cold anuff to make it.

 

did it get to hot to talk about snow lol

 

hahaha. i was just thinking the same thing! i played in the living room agin with mine the other day. thank god for carpet floors.

 

It's still hittin 105 here.. :/

 

haha. it’s in the mid to low 70’s here and falling in to mid 60’s at night.

 

I broke my foot on friday..



But thanks to the merciful God of everything including snowboarding, I will be all good to go again right about when the season starts!

And these crutches are giving me a great upper body workout.

 

ohh that sucks! and thats good that you wont miss out on season! good luck on recovery man!

haha i fill ya did the same here. it was in the 60’s most of last week. week before it was in upper 70’s and low 80’s

Ok guys if anyone had a chance to snowboard anywhere in the world (money not being a factor) where would you guys go? Any thoughts?
Dang it, I am here wishing the season starts already so I can go boarding.

 

Well, the most expensive and still pretty cool would be some heli skiing in europe sonewhere, BUT, since i don't do all mountain/back country anymore and just park.. id say a road trip in the States.. start at mamoth, go down to big bear, over to Colorado, hit up telluride, copper, aspen, a basin, etc.. then over to new mexico and the enchanted circle. take a month off and hit all those spots. Get an rv with some friends.. stay at the resorts and cabins.. great snow and ice cold beer.. ooooh.. got a little excited guys.. sorry. Lol.
