Snowboarding is great, except for tight trees and ice and flats. If you can stick with it thru the 1st 3 days of being on your ass or your face 99% of the time, on the 4th day you'll be able to ride decently. It's just a matter of finding and feeling out the proper balance. Board size and binding angle are very important. I tell everyone take a lesson once. Take it the 1st time if you can't find someone to guide you and you have no idea how to do the lifts. Otherwise, take the the 3rd or 4th day. Believe me, you can get into bad habits without even realizing it and by the time you do, they're a real bitch to break. That way, you won't go to the bunny hill, you'll go to the greens, where an instructor can correct your technique and tell you what you're doing wrong. After that, you'll be cruising most anything no prob within a week.

Anyways, 4 days.... Dude took me about 4 hrs to figure it out, buy the end of the day I was boarding down Blue's and getting most the way down before I bailed. The only thing I dont like about Boards, is having both legs strapped down, that is something a little hard to get use to.. Only my right leg ached (and still aches)... I'm going up Saturday...
