I've been snowboarding since 1999, Skiing since 1985. I've spent the last 3 seasons on Dry Slopes due to being in Australia for 2 of the last 3 winters (musn't grumble).

Anyway no more excuses, now i've sort of recovered from slipping the C-Curve in my spine (tweaked it boarding then it popped good and proper), i'm off down the dry again in the next few weeks with a trip to the Alps scheduled for next winter. It's time to retire my current HAMMER SNOWBOARD to the dryslope graveyard so there is just long enough to persuade the missus that I DO need new board to go away on and a rental will certainly cut it!
