I never did post about snowboarding last winter (Jan-March 2008).  I went out and had a blast snowboarding.  Since I used to skateboard, this was nothing.  Easier and softer then mountain biking.  I went out 6 times and got to the point of hitting jumps and pulling off frontside grabs.  It was a blast.  I fell once and lightly tweaked my shoulder, but nothing significant.

So I was anticipating going out this season.  With the economy in tatters, I  wasn't sure that this was a great idea, but I certainly can't argue against a little fun now and then.  So I finally went out the Sunday before Christmas.  I was on vacation and we just got a good amount of snow.

Sure enough I got right back into it.  I was only sore for a couple of runs and then it was just pure fun (and cold).  But I pushed it and on the last run I managed to fall and bang my knee good.  (I knew I should have called it a night the run before)

Well, the weather has waffled like the politicians and I'll probably not be going back out until next week since tomorrow its gonna be C.O.L.D.
