Has anyone ever snowboarded?

I snowboarded in South africa when it got cold one year and snowed.

However it was more like ice and i couldnt even turn the snowboard it just slid.

It is my dream to travel to the real snow and maybe do some real snowboarding.

Yup. I suck at it now.

I used to before getting sick. Wasn’t very good but I enjoyed it.

I’m a skier too. I never tried snowboarding though. My old friend was a snowboarder even though it took him an hour to go down a little hill after years of practice. Just something about skiing that thrills me. I just hate the stupid kids who shine lasers in your eyes from the lifts.

I dated a snowboard instructor for a little while.

Oddly, did not help my snowboard game at all, I’m still terrible at it and would rather ski.

I used to snowboard every weekend as a teen in the winter, my mom used to take us. Lift tickets were very expensive. I got quite decent at it after a few months and could even go off small jumps. I was in the ski and snowboard club in middle school, we went to Afton Alps every tuesday and thursday. This was my snowboard, its still in the basement but too small for me now.

Minnesota somewhere. Mom used to take us to wild mountain. Everyone here recognizes these names. Another one with a weird name was trollhaugen, went there with my boy scout troop once.
