just wondering if any one here in this forum enjoys going skiing or boarding, what levelare you?meaning eithera beginner,intermediate or expert. i myself am only a beginner/inter. i also skiboard along with my son who's 15 and we have a blast everytime. just a topic that hope you guys would like to share. thanks

 

I've enjoyed skiing since I was about 5. Started X-country at about 16. That's been ..ummm... a FEW years.

 

I would love to try it. I haven't seen snow in Mississippi for like 5 or 6 years[&o]

 

hells yes, ive been skiing since I was 4. (literally, I took my first ski lesson at 4, like before snowboards were close to popular)

i think i might try snowboarding this year, but skiing is in my blood.

 

Learned to ski in 4 days, 3 years ago ....... following 4 months of hard training. It also helps that this was in Colorado. I planned to learn to ride a board last year, but it only snowed once, so I'm gonna do that this year.

 

ah. lucky, colorado. Always wanted to go out there.
we always go in this place in the UP called "ski brule"

 

I have been snowboarding for a about 3 years now and i would say i am about in the middle bettween beg and inter level. This season kinda sucks for me, cause noone wants to go. I was supposed to go today and people bailed on me last night, this is the second time this happand. Lets just say i'm not asking them if they want to go anymore!

 

that bites those people bailed on you, for once i went by myself and just took my mp3 player and skiboarded all day.it was great! i got a lot of looks and some questions of my skiboard like" are those fun? what are those snowblades?" i just told them what it is and that i really enjoy them. but i guess the only worry i had was not to get hurt so i could drive back home.just go by yourself and have fun,you'd probably enjoy it better.

 

I live in between two ski resorts (big mountain and Blacktail) up here in Montana but the stupid cost of lift tickets and the recent additions to family have made it near impossible to go out for a few years now. When I was at the "peak" of my abilities I ran a couple of Black Diamond runs and one or two Double Black Diamond runs but I don't think I was an expert. I miss it and loved to do it but you can't hardly go without blowing $100.00 between the gas, lift ticket, food, snacks etc.. so it just isn't reasonable anymore. Tried snowboarding a few times but (I mean no offense to anyone by this) it just seemed to easy and the risk of splitting your groin on a tree while skiing through them wasn't there *L* I hate moguls but tree's were such a rush...

 

Where's that? I would usually go to Indianhead or Whitecap once or twice a year.
