I’‘m still a massive noob when it comes to boarding. This is my 3rd season, but I’ve really only done about 8-9 days on the mountain in total. I’ll be adding 5-6 more to that before this season is over.

Oh, and I’m 30yo. going on 19.

Bodyboarded 20+ years (now only once a month :( - was a point 9 years ago i was BBing every day 7 days a week - damn life & maturity)

Surfed on and off over those years
Skated for about 10 years (never got any good :( )
Started Snowboarding at 21 - did 2 days
the next year 1 did 16 days (in rebel sport gear, rocking a 156 hex tail Aggression and bindings that cost me $150)
that is 14 years ago

First tried snowboarding back when I was 13 in 1997, was originally a skier from when I was around 4 from memory. Have been down to the snow pretty much every year for a week or so with the exception of a few years since I was 4.

Snowboarding has pretty much taken over my life in the past 3 years, this definitely isn’t a bad thing though haha

I started surfing at 9 or 10, snowboarding at 16, and skated on and off throughout my life. I never became very good at skating but I have a deep appreciation for the sport. I’m 28 now. smile
