which one of these do you think burns more calories? I think this particular survey was talking about regular "freestyle" snowboarding. I would think hard boot snowboarding burns more calories, unless you are doing tricks in the park? Anyway, I was surprised by the results.

I don't know if it being their last weekend would make it any more crowded, unless there is something going on like a pond skimming or bikini contest. ABasin will still have good snow unless something radical happens in the next 2 weeks.

Yep! Come on down anytime! I'd love to see you down here. :)

Hmmmm will have to check them out as there's a snowmobile shop across the street!

This is a good idea, not sure why we haven't thought of it. Do they make them for small faced people?

You can also talk to Alex and Steph, as they are about an hour away. I also think Amy lives near there, send me an email if you still need help.

Here's a link to PureBoarding's next event http://www.pureboarding.com/fileadmin/user_upload/pdf/Ausschreibungen/2013-14/Announcement-Kaunertal-05-2014-E.pdf And you've still got time for this one too http://www.carving-masters.de/cmstartup/cm/index.php which is a HUGE event!

HA HA who are the old school softbooters at 3:59?

She's a ripper!

Very good advice! Try and be able to articulate what exactly you like about your board, and what you think you wouldn't like. It helps them to understand what you are looking for. They know which questions to ask, but it helps if you can give them info as well. :)

Bomber has some too http://bomberonline.3dcartstores.com/Power-Plate-System-_p_181.html.

They had a few at the Burton museum!

The problem is, they go out in ski boots, try it without instruction (which is usually the case), and HATE the sport because the boots don't flex the way they need to. They get frustrated (understandably) and think it's too hard so they leave the experience thinking THIS SUCKS. In a perfect world, we'd require everyone that rents/demos to also go out with an experienced person. However, that's just not feasible or logistically applicable. If we're trying to encourage people into the sport, we need to coax them into something that doesn't scare them away. The other aspect is if ski boots are the absolute only possibility, is it better than them not being able to try it at all? That also doesn't get people into the sport So there's a no win situation here.

WOW Awesome video by Courtney! And I must admit, she ripped for her first time that day!

WOW amazing drawings!

If you tried on the demo boots, you are probably going to be one size smaller unless you specifically talked with one of us to fit you. The demo boots are not a good indicator of size. Read the sizing rules here https://bomberonline.3dcartstores.com/assets/images/PDFs/Sizing_boots.pdf. For you guys/girls looking to rent/buy hard boot gear in the US, the only ones I know of (outside of Berkshire East) is us here at Bomber or at one of our events. :)

Nice pics Jack! Too bad about your disk :(

SO COOL!!!!! Good luck Amy, both in Sochi and in LA!
