Snow Boarding


I snowboarded once in my life – way back in ‘99.

It was a miserable experience. It took me about an hour to get down the hill.

Then I promptly traded in the board for skis.

Unfortunately, all of my friends (and Roch) are snowboarders. So I gave it another try. This time with lessons.

The instructor was great. I learned how to go, how to stop and how to crash. I was on the bunny hill and that tow-rope about killed me. I realized I have an enormous fear. I’m not sure what I’m afraid of, but I am definitely afraid when I’m snowboarding.

I think I will move back to my familiar skis. Again. I should probably re-take some lessons with them as well.

That’s me on the left with the “rental” strap on my leg.
