mattbell Some friends and I are doing a last-minute roadtrip to Sugar Bowl Friday and Saturday this week. It's all snowy and waiting for us!
Our car is full but others are welcome to join up with us at the resort.
If you're local to the bay area and want to go sometime (or want to learn), let me know. I want to build up a snow posse. :-)
If you're wondering why snowboarding is so fascinating to me, read this.
On a separate note, I think the "lowering the cost of failure" approach I used to learning snowboarding, in which I wore lots of padding so that I would be less afraid to fall and would suffer less pain upon falling, is applicable to other parts of life as well. Yesterday I bought some upper body armor that covers my back, shoulders, chest, and elbows. This should further lower the cost of failure and ensure that I get to spend more time playing on the mountain and less time sore and miserable.
