so I jus spent the weekend in Tahoe. The mission WAS snowboarding...and I've come to the conclusion that I am absolutely, w/o a doubt no pro at the sport. However, when did get going I experienced one of the most exhilarating times of my life! I would suggest that you give it a chance also! I must have fallen aleast 20 times!!! By the time I left I came to the conclusion that you've got the fall sometimes before things can get better and without a struggle there can be no success or Victory..This applies to almost everything we engage in. So with that said...Last year you might've fallen hundreds of times, but with this being a new..its time to evaluate the mistakes, strap your feet into the board and revel in the success of your accomplishments!
