    Default Snowboarding yodle yodle

    Does anybody here like Snowboarding or Skiing? I just recently went to Austria/St Anton with my brother and a friend and it was brilliant, ive been a few times before and i can now already do kickers and some rails! Ive got some great pictures but unfortunetly they are too big to upload onto this forum.

    So does anybody else like some sort of wintersport? Have you ever been? Where, when and how was it?

    Ouchie I hope it wasnt TOO bad!

    I remember one injury before i gave up skateboarding (a bit off topic i know but hey): I ollied to do a boardslide on a pretty low rail, unfortunetly some twerp thought it would be funny if he overwaxed the bar, i didnt have enough speed and my board slid backwards under my feet, somehow i didnt manage to stop the fall with both my arms and instead i fell on my dead straight left arm...... SNAP!!! I lay screaming for a few seconds until the pain stopped from the adrenaline rush, but my arm looked scary as hell!! It was all bent and wobbly. Anyway, that screwed up my whole summer. Now back to snowboarding. Ive never had any injuries in snowboarding so its looking good for me!

    im obviously not as skilled as you but i did get quite a bad injury (nearly broke my knee) some people had decided to run across the slope when iwas on my way down and didnt have time to stop properly

    I've been snowboarding now for about 2 and a half years. I normally go to Ski Martock, here in Nova Scotia, but this has been a really crappy and short winter, so instead I'll be going to Whistler, BC, next March. I'm looking forward to that.

    I've been before. It's pretty fun, but I can't ever get the energy up to go do it again.

    If snowboarding is anything like it is in FF7 I'll have to try it one of these days.
