 Posted: 18:06 - 03 Oct 2009 Post subject: Snowboarding |
 |
|
I havnt had a board on me since 2007, and prior to that i'd had one on pretty constantly both as a job and for fun since i was 13.
so now im thinking enough is enough, and i've asked to get my snowboarding instructors job back. got my technical assesment on the 12th, and im going to be shit.
anyway, who else does this sort of shit? i've got to dig out all my old stuff and will basically have to teach myself again.
post your vehicles!

No decent pics of my board but a few of local range which is the Cairngorm's which is literally a 30 min drive away.  ____________________ in the famous word of jimmy pop "would you F*ck me for blow"

Not anymore.
Don't think I have any pics of my board on this computer unfortunately.
Had a Rome Anthem, with Drake bindings.
Vans boots.
Was awesome for free ride, lacking in flex for the freestyle stuff(which I wasn't great at anyway, it's all about the big powder, and big jumps rather than the snow park)......
I miss it occasionally. ____________________ My Flickr |

my Millennium 3 board was £180 with bindings, but that was cheap shit to trash on the dry slope.
cheap boots will probably be about £50.
something decent will set you back a bit though. i paid £130 for my burton custom bindings (the green ones) and about £250 for the board theyre on, and about £120 for vans boa boots. i got instructors discount at the shop i bought all this from though, so no idea what it would cost RRP. plus got mates rates for being mates with the owner. doesnt seem too cheap now, but go back to 2006-7 when i bought the stuff and it was brand new stock.
thats new prices. 2nd hand is pretty cheap for your own gear.
as far as learning goes, once you can get a carve on, you dont really need lessons, its all self teaching from there. ____________________ Blue_SV650S wrote: it was a sh1te wheelie, but it proves that he can get it up in 3rd and can do angles.

I remember when I was riding I paid £180 for Vans Fargo Boa boots, although this was back in 2003/4 ish. |
yeah, just edited it for reasons of cheapness.
my boots are vans boa encore, not fargo. ____________________ Blue_SV650S wrote: it was a sh1te wheelie, but it proves that he can get it up in 3rd and can do angles. In summery, mattsprattuk is a gobby little sh1tebag, dopehead tw4t, but sadly for all of us, he probably isn't THAT full of sh1te!!

pretty sure that board of yours used to be chris daltons.
edit: doesnt look like plymouth on second thoughts, although it might have changed. ____________________ Blue_SV650S wrote: it was a sh1te wheelie, but it proves that he can get it up in 3rd and can do angles.

Nah I work up in Llandudno, I was just curious as to wether it was JNLL you worked at. No idea who had the board before the guy in work (Chris Farrell) had it but I know it's old and has seen a fair few owners! ____________________ Now: '00 Kawasaki ZRX1100R - Past: '84 Yamaha DT125, '89 Kawasaki KLR600, '97 Yamaha XJ600N
