First snowboard experience
Today I tried to get onto snowboard for the first time :) We woke up bloody early at about 5:30am, got onto bus and went to Ontake Ropeway ski-resort (3+ hours by bus!)
The temperature was about +7C, but there was lots of snow in the mountains (and looks like it was mostly natural.. although I don't know for sure). Oh well my wife told me I did pretty good, better than most of people she knows. It was pleasant to hear :) Indeed.. while taking some pretty mind-blowing hits, rolling over my head etc I could get "some" grip of the snowboarding. This was the first experience, and the last one for this season (it's getting pretty warm here pretty fast). But I'm looking forward for next year's season.
..ah and my whole body aches :) Don't even want to think what will become of it tomorrow heh :)
