Once you get on the snow, pop some music on & just let everything go. ride, get away from it all. live for the moment and enjoy having the freedom.

Yep A-Basin here in Colorado is open till June 8th tentatively…so still got the season here on weekends. I’m hoping to ride in August at Hood as well, just waiting to plan the trip.

I’ll set the record straight on El and I. We dated for two years; we broke up two years ago. We live in separate towns, have separate lives and do not speak to each other online or in real life. The negative behavior by him and others is exactly what I’m talking about in this post, it gets old and I’ve dealt with it for so long. I’ve had the amount of days of riding a year, used against me as well so I empathize completely. I know it’s not about that. Unfortunately people still believe we are together or good friends, that is not the case. Like any ex in your life, you try to move on and get away from them. It’s harder with snowboard.com, since I do actively get involved in forum stuff. I do not take in his opinions or treat him like the king of snowboarding. He does read this blog unfortunately.

I’m just trying to move on with my life and that includes not having him in it.

Very well said. The only thing I dont agree on is how you can say this stuff about snowboarders who bash others, yet you constantly support a forum poster (elsnowboarder) when he CONSTANTLY bashes other snowboarders for what they like to ride, and how they ride it. He also uses the amount of days he gets to ride against someone who doesnt get to ride as much. It doesnt make sense to me. Please take this into account and stop treating him like he is the king of snowboarding. You should let him read this blog because he has apparently forgot what snowboarding is all about.

It includes a loved one’s three favourite words: Winter storm warning. Here’s to being a part of something much bigger than the structure defined by society (i.e. work, social expectations, etc.) and having a hell of a time doing it. I’m already looking forward to winter and to riding with you again.
