Hello everyone! So as I promised here comes one of my update kinda posts. Today I want to talk about my new snowboard gear. Let's say that this winter I spent a lot of money however I can't be complaining. Was so worth it. :)
I was in a serious need for a proper winter jacket considering for like past three or four years i've been using my brother's one and he was getting really pissed off about it, so it really was time to invest into my new one. And as many people know I'm kind of obsessed with Burton. So after long consideration and hunt I said yes to this blue (oh how unexpected Susan) jacket from Burton and along with it I ordered also this blue (again) beanie. Let's say that it was love on the first sight and i don't plan to finish our relationship any soon. :)
Second, even more exciting purchase was actually present for my 18th Birthday from my parents, however I got it already at the beginning of February. After 8 years of riding my old snowboard it was time for a change and trust me, I spent endless hours looking for the best board. From the very beginning I knew that I wanted to have a Burton board, considering it was my dream for many years now. I had really crucial time picking up the right one, considering now I'm specifying for Freestyle riding and I'm really tall girl and there's not that many tall boards for women. Pity. Finally I ended up getting a men's board which i was really scared about because it's not the same as the women's one. But then I took it to the slope and oh boy, my mind was blown away. It's so perfect, like seriously I'm over the moon. However I have to admit, it's quite hard to do the tunings in the air but I guess that only needs practice.
And along with my new board aka. my new boyfriend, it was necessary to buy also new bindings because the Burton boards use The Channel which is a bit different way of bindings. Too difficult to explain. This situation came really handy considering my old bindings were well... in really really bad conditions. :) And I think I picked good, once again. :)
Okay so it was really interesting winter. Hopefully this whole upgrade will help me reach my goals and I'll keep on getting better in the freestyle snowboarding and i wish soon, I'll get on the big jumps and perform some sick tricks. :) Best of luck to you all.
Susan.
