Hitting the Slopes - Snowboarders of eGO! (Skiiers are welcome too :P)

[PhaseXero]

Anyone equally obsessed with running out to the nearest hill now that we finally got some snow?

I've been snowboarding for about 4 years and taking it seriously since last year when i got my own equipment. I'm riding a relatively unknown board the Head Transit with Salomon Relay bindings - loving it so far.

First day out, hitting the half pipe with 40 kilometer gusts blowing ridiculous amounts of snow across the mountain. It was hailing for a couple hours, my cheeks ended up being sandblasted and are pretty damn tender right now. Ended up driving back in whiteout conditions with visibility down to about a couple meters. Perfect first day

I'm currently doing 270s (aka failing hard) and working my way up to 3s. Anyone else have any goals for this year?

Feel free to post your pics, videos and stories!

Edit:
Decided to post a board photo, just because lol. Just noticed the hairdryer but that's to dry out the wood core from the giant chip caused by hitting something =(

Haha, I just sled - but I do it in a ravine, so it's actually pretty extreme

I go to the beach... Yes its warm enough. Go florida.
But i do want to go snowboarding in my life.

Sexy I don't snow board but my jerk friends first time going out on the slopes take me to a black diamond switch back - Idk if thats what they call them. Well lets just say it wasn't very fun -_-

I'm a skiier through and through. Technically I've been skiing for 13 years, but my skills don't represent that number I can do blacks and such, but since I only go once a year on average, I never really improve.

I do intend on going skiing twice this season so it's looking good.
