Go Snowboarding!

When your a surfer living in Santa Cruz during the winter, it can almost be a drag to leave such good waves. But since I really cant surf all that well, I have no problem heading to the mountains for a few days to shred the snow. Right before christmas, my friends family was nice enough to invite me to their cabin located directly on the property of Dodge Ridge Ski resort, which is near Yosemite. I wouldn't usually recommend going there over tahoe, but we were lucky enough to have had it dumped snow the previous two days before we arrived. The cool thing about having a place to stay near the snow is that you can make it your own playground even after the lifts close.

We made something of a jump in the backyard of the cabin.
Im not sure if this photo was just taken at the beginning of the jump, or that I have the style of a nasa projectile launch unit...

This was kyle's second time ever snowboarding. He looks to be leaning forward a bit much...




He got to know the snow quite well.









Snowboarding is an active way to experience nature as well as a great way to have fun with friends. Shred on!
