Credit to the man behind the camera

Sorry i forgot to include my mentor, i told him that i'd give him some of the credit, so here it is, my mentor Mr. Colton .S helped  me today by giving me pointers, and gave steps to procedures to the very basics of snowboarding & he also pointed out some of the numerous mistakes that I made haha... Sooo thanks Colton!

When the board meets the snow

So i just came back from springhill and it turns out that I'm not as good as I thought I was, in fact worse. I'm still feeling the pains of some of the rookie mistakes I made, and I'm sure your gonna see some of it on the videos that were taken. I defiantly know now that snowboarding behind a snowmobile and and snowboarding downhill are two completely different ball games. I find I enjoy being behind a snowmobile more because its ALOT easyer to pick up, and for the record don't compare longboarding to snowboarding. Longboarding acquires force and precision meanwhile snowboarding is touchy and even more precision is involve, so lesson learned kids if you can longboard that doesn't mean you can automatically snowboard or viscera. Hope to give you pics & vids soon and I'll keep you posted :-).

LET THE ANTICIPATION BEGIN

Well spring hill is supposed to open Dec. 14 which is good because then i can start working on my snowboarding skills with my mentor, Colton .S, although i could have bought a season pass already i didn't because the prices were outrageous so i'm just gonna see what they have for like a week pass or something. Normally i snowboard behind my snowmobile but the battery is dead and we need to replace it so hopefully that will get done soon so i can work on my skills and maybe send you guys some pics and vids of my progress.
