I used to snowboard twice a week when I was 13-15. I used one set of equipment my whole life and now it's wrecked. I had fairly shitty stuff, a liquid board, and some lamar boots I really liked. thinking of getting back into it. Anyone have an opinion on burton boards? I plan on buying cheap binding because I always figured they had nothing to do with technical aptitude.

I didn't get to go last year, so I'd like to go a few times this year to make up for it. Also, my son is pretty keen on learning.

I wish you were serious, I would totally go snowboarding with you, Strat (and stay at your sweet penthouse, and meet all your sexy friends).

My bindings broke on me over the weekend - not a fun time when you're heading down one of the steepest parts of the mountain.

You live in Vail? You ever bang a bartender named Allie there? Friend of mine. Cool chick, if she likes you.
