Me too, in Dec. thru March in Minnesota, anyway! I'm a lifer at DH skiing, but picked up snowboarding at the end of last winter. Our hills aren't large here, but they are good training grounds for a new snowboarder. It's SO MUCH FUN!Originally Posted by snowtulip
I'd definately take snowboarding over riding! Could be because we havent' seen much snow lately, but I feel so much more freedom and joy on the board than on the bike!
Tomorrow (next winter?), THE WEST!

Good timing for a move, I'd say! Originally Posted by cherinyc

We are counting down the days here, too. Just this morning, I eyed the equipment sleeping in the basement, yearning to come out and play! They are getting jealous of the bike.

I got a new Salomon Radiant Snowboard for my birthday....
I love my boyfriend - he really knows the way to my heart. A new snowboard and a pair of diamond earings. What more could a girl ask for?
Now all I need are some bindings and I'll be ready to go. I am looking for a pair that has the toe cover. Any opinions on these?

I don't know anything about snowboard bindings but A-Basin and Loveland Ski areas opened this past weekend. Copper Mtn. plans to open Nov. 3.
Nice long season here in Colorado!

I know - I can't believe Denver has gotten 4.4 inches of snow already. Crazy!!! I can't wait to get there.

I can't believe it either!
Today, we were scheduled to lead a 54 mi ride for our bike club. Club policy cancelled, too cold this morning.
High of day below 40! Normal high for the day is 65.Last edited by Kathi; 10-18-2006 at 12:05 PM.
