Ok so Im going snowboarding for the 1st time this Friday. Im scared! Im going with Jason and he hasnt been for 2 years so he should be pretty close to where i am. I wanna go on the chairlifts that day so i need some pointers on how to get off! i dont wanna fall (i know it will happen)
And what do i need gear wise? Im renting board and boots - though I want my own but no use in buying it before i try it! I already have a Helly Hanson Jacket and a pimp snow hat! ;-) Im going to buy Pants Goggles Gloves Anything else? -------------------- Cruisin down the street in my Infiniti...always lookin for my next trip to Sin City

I consider myself a pretty good skateboarder, and I figured that would really help me out when I learned how to snowboard.. but its completely different. In skateboarding you lean to move, but in snowboarding its more like your back foot is steering, so in all actuality snowboarding is most like surfing.
