Meet the new board

Well, I finally broke down and bought a snowboard. This after three years of renting whenever I went. Before that I skied for a good number of years but I finally caved into peer pressure and took up snowboarding. I got to test out my new board last weekend at Mountain High ski resort in the San Gabriel mountains north of L.A. The snow was fake and icy but I have to say that I'm quite pleased with my purchase. I liked the feel of this board better than anything else I've used so far. I'm looking forward to trying it out in some real snow in a few weeks when I go with some of my classmates up to Mammoth. Hopefully someday I'll be able to try it out back in my native country on Mt. Hood.
