I used to snowboard 30 days a year. Now it's down to eight.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I've reached my goal with snowboarding.
I've been snowboarding my whole life. My wife's really good, and I just try to keep up with her.
If you eat the same cereal every day it's gonna get old. And if I had thought about snowboarding every day, I would have quit a long time ago.
I went through a period at boarding school when my coaches wanted me to switch to snowboarding because they thought I was no good at skiing. I was too skinny. I had terrible technique. They were saying I should be a snowboarder, and luckily, I resisted.
Snowboarding is an activity that is very popular with people who do not feel that regular skiing is lethal enough.
I played rugby most of my life and then I switched to snowboarding, which provided me a lot of inspiration.
I know my family and I would always go up to the mountains just for fun. We always skied. Then, all of a sudden, my brother started snow boarding. Older brother thing, I had to do what he was doing. So I started snow boarding.
When I was running across the country, I was doing 40 or 50 miles a day in sleeting snow with zero visibility for five or six days in a row. Ten to 12 hours of running in that is monotony beyond belief.
I haven't skied or snowboarded or anything like that.
I tried snowboarding, and that scared the hell out of me.
