RAILS ARE SCARY...

...Snowboard rails scare the shit out of me.  If you fall one way you land badly.  Fall the other way and not only do you land badly but you land badly on a metal rail!  It doesnt help that I'm shit at doing them either.   Definietly getting some body armour.

Just tested me new Technine Jib board at Chill Factor E.  Its sweet as.  Its the best board I've ever had, even if it is only my second board :P

Feels like I've just broken my ribs snowboarding at chill factor e in manchester.  Owe.....

GOT MY NEW BOARD!

My new (and first) snowboard came today ^_^  Got me a rome agent 156 with burton tria d bindings and 32 lashed boots.  I could have got a board more suited to progressing like the rome solution but at £273 for the agent in the sale it seemed silly not to spend the extra.  Same with the bindings.  Cant go wrong for £126 and they should have loads of resell potential.  Got the 32 lashed because they were cheap on ebay and there nice and forgiving for my first trip on a mountain (less than a month to go!).  Picture coming soon.  The flash made my eyes glow like i was the spawn of satan and i was pulling a spazzy face :P

...Shouldn't have played guitar hero before going to bed.... :(

Went rock climbing at awesome walls in liverpool tonight.  Blitzed all but 2 of the top rope walls.  Gonna try do a lead climbing session next month.  We were meant to be going at least once a week, not sure what happened to that :P  Best not mention I've not been the gym for over a month :P

Snowboarding lesson again tomorrow, gonna nail them toe edge turns again ^_^

Went to liverpool today to try on snowboard boots.  Only i ended up talking about boots, bindings and boards and forgot to try on the boots :(  You cant really go back in after you've walked out the shop.  Have to go back next weekend.

Another week another snowboarding lesson.  Negatives; I fell on my left arse cheek and it fucking kills!!  Positives; I can now turn on my toe edge and link turns ^_^  I rock the party!

Went to Runcorn ski centre yesterday for another snowboarding lesson.  The instructor bumped us up to the next course cos we kick ass!! Ok maybe not kick ass but definitely getting into it.  My  Brother Alex started in the beginers course to.  Cant wait to go back to the indoor snow dome in February!

...Bit sore today tho :P
