Went to France and Italy to do it, lots of snow there XD


EDIT- And I have been water skiing, thats much easier.
Wow...I thought I was the only skiboarder left! I bought mine about 7 years ago and it was kind of popular. Now I'll go and I'm lucky if I see one more person besides myself with a pair. It was really bad when I went to Vermont a couple of years ago. People were looking at me weird and I saw no one else the entire weekend that was skiboarding. I like it mainly because it was really easy to pick-up and improve on. I can ski most slopes with my skiboards. Every once and a while I will jump in the park and look out of place (my age, everyone else is 15 or younger and on a snowboard) but I can't say I'm good at jumps or rails (I'm not too bad at the rails).

I tried snowboarding once but my night was cut short when a friend I was with broke her wrist. She actually didn't want to stop....we had to talk her into going to the doctors. Even then, she didn't go until the next day.
I want to give it a try again.

I have also water skied before but I have to admit that I tend to have great begineers luck.

I also do a little surfing in the summer @ the Outer Banks of NC.

The next thing I want to try is kitesurfing. If you don't know what this is, check it out. I once saw a guy in the Outer Banks kitesurfing a day before a Hurricane was ready to slam the area. He was awesome!
