First time i went snowboarding was ‘92. I got 5 boards. 4 sets of bindings. 3 jackets. 2 pants.
All of it was in storage when the fire happened so still got.
I been known to dabble. Haven’t had much time the last few yrs though.
My first time was 83. In 93 I moved to Tahoe for like 6 years. I'm in Colorado now. I haven't been up lately since I've been so lazy. I bought a season pass, but kinda fucked up my ankle so I don't know how much I'll get to use it this season. Depends how long it takes for my shit to heal.

This thing even works at Heavenly, Kirkwood, and Northstar. Too bad no Squaw or Mammoth though.

Haven't for a few years. Took up things on the snow that were a little easier on the body.
What have you found that you like that's easier on the body?

I got concussed a few years back at kirkwood. Luckily i didn’t break my neck or something else. It was all bad.
Shitty snow year. Was all sloshy ice. We kept passing by our favorite jump with a gap and were like nah. Then i said i’m gonna do it so when we got there all my buddies were waiting. I dropped in, checked my speed once too many times. Went up, couldn’t even pop my tail up, and i went down. On my back. About a 25-30’drop. Fucking stupid.
Had to make it down with a broken binding and fully cuncussed.
Fuck heavenly. Northstar is my fav. Squaw is pretty bad ass too though

That's what I'll probably do. Then I can just buy day passes this year when I'm good to go.

I can't believe you said Northstar man. That shit's pretty flat. Squaw kicks ass. Sugerbowl was fun, and Boreal is damn fun too. Or at least it was. Truckee was hella fun. I've got endless stories from that place, :bigjoint:

If I didn't have weed all I'd have to do is ride the Gongdola up at Squaw and someone would bust out some chronic.

Northstar has that superpipe. Boreal is another one of my favorites.
Last time i was at Squaw i got busted for trying to hawk the other half of a 2 for 1 lift ticket lmao

I haven't seen Northstar in years. If they made it more parkish it makes sense. It is a cool littkle place. Truckee kicked ass, but I never heard of Shwag, Brick, or Mex until I moved there, :lol:

Good thing nobody brought that nasty shit on the mountain though, :eyesmoke:.

Pretty much why I gave it up for the most part. Bad shoulders and multiple head injuries including the neck and spine have made me nervous to bounce off the hardpack slash ice. Wife and I ride bikes, xc ski and kayak, It's plenty of fun with less risk. Sucks having to slow down as I have grown older but I have a way to go before I hit the finish line and would rather not be in a chair when I finally cross it.
