Keenan, that's a shame. I stumbled upon some alpine clinics on Mount Hood and was hoping that alpine snowboarding was common around here. I guess it's a rare phenomenon anywhere.
Brian, thanks. I filled out my profile and messaging is turned on. Little info about me: I'm from Europe, studying in Hillsboro, Oregon. Back home I've got a F2 Silberpfeil with F2 titanium bindings and DeeLux shoes. Mondo size would be around 29.5 to 30. I'm 6'1" and weigh around 185 lbs. As for riding style, if there's any gear I could rent or borrow, I'd be extremely happy. All is better than a soft board.
It's nice to see there's a few enthousiasts around! Thanks for the help.
Stefan
