I skied most of my life, but switched to snowboarding about 10 years ago. I love the feeling, the weight transfer technique comes much more naturally to me. I live in Montreal and we have 15+ hills within a 1h30 drive.
I was out at one of the local hills early last sunday morning with a group of friends with the temperature hovering around -30/-25 celsius. A bit on the nippy side ... but on the plus side, zero wait time at the chair lifts.
Here is a photo of my wife coming in for a landing over the Xmas holidays. We have a friendly rivalry about who is better, but you will notice I arrived at the bottom before her to snap this pic.
