Went boarding. The pics were OK...not great. I had some awesome air but my friend took the pics WAY too soon and they looked like poo

Anyway, here they are! (Pic 3 is the best)

And I know this one looks bad but it was just taken too soon. I have no idea what the hell I was doing there but I didn't fall once from jumps so I know I landed it. Pretty funny though :)

Video of a semi-ok jump. The one before it was way better but we didn't film it. I was trying to do a stalefish but I didn't hold it very long (though if you pause it, I do grab). Oh I so wish my other one came out, doh!

It's 600K:

that's why san diego is perfect. Perfect weather and if you need snow, 2.5 hours from driveway to parking lot!

Nice! I rode a rail for the first time on Friday, wasn't that hard actually! That park sucked though, you need some bigger kickers!

yeah, that was on the family park side.
The guys I went with stayed there most of the time rather than hit the big stuff but I got a few good ones in over there, just no pics.

Rails are fun. Try going 50-50 to a boardslide or 180 out.

You are good, the last time (also the first time) that I went snow boarding I couldnt stay on for more then 10 seconds (almost breaking my ankles at times), it's not as easy as it looks, if you have'nt snowboarded before then dont say anything how easy or hard it is.

See, that's the problem right there. No one in the world thinks boarding is easy after just 1 time. But if you push yourself and have other's to guide you, you can get good enough after just one season.

It's actually easier to stay up the faster you go, a common misconception of many new boarders (this is true for skating as well). After you get over the first learner's hump, is really gets much easier (and much more fun).
