Kimmy - thank you!

Good to hear about things from your angle. One I really can't say I have, since I have so, so little experience with skiing.

What you said about injuries, saw that mentioned in an article....they said supposedly you have more knee injuries in skiing, but more wrist and arm injuries in boarding. Guess it evens out in the long wrong.

I'm a little bit of a hipster so hip snowboarding culture is alright by me

You know, I was talking to a friend who, has never boarded but is a great skier, and she mentioned some of the same things you did about boarders. Specifically, about sitting in the middle of the slope, or rather, to try not to do that, as it is difficult for others to avoid you. Last thing I want is some kind of accident up on the mountain, so I'm taking that advice seriously!

Again, thanks
