    Have any of you guys tried snowboarding?

    Some of my friends from work are going to be going on feb 12 & i have never done it before, luckily most of them havent either. I expect to spend most of the day on my bum in the snow!

    Any tips or tricks?

    I'm scared of speed and heights. LOL You will never know if you like it or not, until you try. If you go, let us know how it was.

      It looks sooooooooooooooo cool!!! I just was watching the U.S. Olympic trials in snowboarding earlier today. If I ever got the chance, I'd do it. But since I live in the desert......

                  I've been a few times (when I was lighter) you really need good endurance in your thighs (think squats and lunges). It was a lot of fun when you start to "get it" but I would expect to spend the whole day sliding down the mountain on your bum : )

                    I imagine that snowboarding, skiing and other snowbound activities are very exhilarating. Man, I was just in a snowball fight this past weekend and my muscles ache from tossing those balls of ice around.

                    Enjoy if you go.

                      I grew up skiing. I decided to be adventurous one time and try snowboarding. It lasted about 5 minutes and 2 faceplants in the snow. They say if you don't know how to ski, it's actually easier to learn how to snowboard. I plan on giving it another shot this year, it's been about 8 years, time to suck it up and try again. Let us know how it goes for ya!
