Hey guys,
Winters coming up, and it's pretty cold.. Hopefully get some good snow.
Anyway, who here snowboards? Who skis?
I snowboarded a few years back, and got the basics, but havent done it for ages! I'm keen to get back up the mountain and back into it this year.
Where do you guys go to snowboard? How long have you been doing it etc?
Just general snowboard chit chat, we've got a bodybuilding thread, and a few others like this. I think this could be good, hopefully meet some VIC guys and girls up the mountain at some stage this year

i used to snowbard years ago until i broke my wrist doing a 360 aerial lol. well not in the air but actually at walking pace. got caught in the ice groove after they groomed "wombat" at buller and snapped my wrist.

i was a skier from about age 4 or 5 through to until i was about 14, my parents took me at least once a season every year, by the time i was 14 i was a very competent skiier but the snowboarding epidemic was just firing up so i jumped ships, i'm 21 this year and have been snowboarding since, never looked back.. i enjoy it so much, i missed one season (last year) and can't wait to get back down, usually we road trip and stay in jindi and board thredbo (i find perisher has to many up hills for a boarder, but it's a better skiing resort), or sometimes stay at my family's lodge in thredbo village but being there kind of takes the whole experience away because it's just so nice lol, i dunno i really enjoy the cheap dorms in jindi cos you've got like 8 people in a room so everyone is always keen to kick on, sink piss and smash billies haha

09-05-07, 17:23 GMT+10#20 My girlfriend got me into boarding a few years ago. I dont think ive ever been so sore after the first time i went. Just about spent the whole day falling over and getting up! Went to Queenstown last year for 10 days and had some great days over there. Can now board at a good level. Cant wait to get up to bulla with every man and his dog this year if there's snow
