Like what?? :lol:

My god i still have 6 and a bit weeks to go, this is killing me. But i get a snow fix mid Feb as im going Riga for a stag weekend and its snowing :)

Agreed Tony, I don't tend to fall over that much anymore as I have reached a level where I am capable of control in most situations. The next step for me is the park which I have started in and believe me I now fall a lot. But managed to get little 360's on lockdown, I'm to scared to go any bigger.

I think as we get older our sense of fear greatly increases, which is why kids whizz by because they simply don't have that fear yet.
Its not a bad thing, it keeps us safe, especially as we age and our bodies do not heal as quick. I suppose what we need to do is trust our own ability and have faith in that to keep us from harm.

Its because we know how much falling over will hurt, kids don't. Plus they bounce better then we do :lol:

Ally if your not falling over your not pushing yourself hard enough. Everyone falls over and those that claim they don't are not pushing there limits to progress. Plus its all part of the fun.

I was at the local indoor ski slope and went over a box, came off the end slipped and slid down the slope, under some red netting which separated the slope from the kid's ice slide. Past the line of kids and luckily I stopped before I got to the slide otherwise I would of gone all the way down. Unclipped the board smiled at all the laughing kids and crawled back under the net.

Its all fun and games.

I would have more chance of throwing one after a few bottles of the red stuff

I will be purchasing it for the PS3. Then I can at least get some sort of snow fix during the summer months. Plus I can also tell people I am able to throw double corks (Just not specifying it's with a PS3 controller instead of a 154 strapped to my feet)

Agreed with Ian above.

I had an April holiday a few years ago in Seer Che and it was the last weekend of the season. It was awesome, you went all day and only saw about 10 people. Plus it snowed for three days ?. Only problem was you had to download or ski to the bottom on dirt.
