I enjoy boarding, despite being crap at it
I've got a K2 spitfire wide 168cm which i've had for about 5 years.
When I get to the slopes its to my local La Molina (hosting the world snow board world cup this year)

Only done it once but on sand! Awesome, dude as the young folk might say

[littlemissmagic]

just tought, you could use a skateboard

i could buy a snowskate board, not sure if youve seen them before but there pretty ace tbf

the snowskate boards are so funny! i went snowboarding in andorra and my instructor was using one, just had me laughing the whole time
This would be brilliant if a trip did get organised

sandboarding looks great fun too!

I tried indoor boarding here in Germany a few months ago with some mates and quite frankly I was just a lunatic going too fast down the hill.

I went in Jan on a big organised trip. After being given ski boots that were too tight and skis to borrow that were way to advanced for a beginner, I switched to boarding (I wanted to board anyway but I got the other stuff for free for the week).

I loved it. Admittedly, Im not very good but it was awesome fun. Put the music on, chill out and just go. I was in St Johan and we had our lessons with Red White Red Ski school they were really good. Our instructor Blair - lunatic.

I'll be going again with a couple of mates in Decemeber and again on the same organised trip as before next January but for two weeks next time. Hopefully by then I should have my own board by then as well.

Oh and one of the guys I was on the trip with, his dad learnt to snowboard. At 60. That's pretty damn cool if you ask me.

I learned to snowboard there. It's alright, but last time i went, i remember the rules were crazy You weren't allowed to go straight down the hill, you had to weave from one side to the other. That was lame. Much better when i went boarding in the mountains in north California super slippery snow, and pretty much no regulation. Just bomb down a black run as fast as you can

i was a bit tame to be fair but its in the UK and its cheap(ish) and its better than the diamonex matting they use on use slopes

[cherryblossom]

i go to mk, but once youve been on holiday somewhere with proper snow its kinda rubbish, i like going on ramp nights as its always fun to try and do jumps lol!
