Well... I am a couple of boarding lessons bound. And I believe I'm making progress... I think. neutral

First day was great for the basics, but when it came to breaking down the hill, I looked like a cat dragging it's claws down the centre of the curtains. No falls, but just pure shitty luck when it comes to effective stops. sweatdrop

Today... Ah man I'm style laughing as I type this... I had my OFFICIAL, 100 % Quality Guaranteed WIPEOUT! My board's centre was attracting too much snow so breaking was near impossible. I fell backwards, and my a** feels like it got beaten in by a baseball bat. I was too busy laughing to feel any remote pain, but I heard a couple of people chuckle at the base of the hill. Ah well... At least I didn't break anything... Much to my friends' dismay. stare

Ah well, I go back to lessons next Tuesday. Hopefully I can learn to stop without using my hands or my backside... rolleyes
