I picked up my new Snowboard today!
It was the final and biggest piece of the snowboarding kit to be added to my collection. I wondered into the local snow shop last weekend, apparently on the right day. I managed to pick up the board & bindings for less than half the price I've seen them for up to now.
For those who know their snowboard gear, the bindings are the "Flow" brand. (Flow Bindings.) The basic difference from the conventional design is that the boot lock in happens from the back of the boot rather than the top. Apparently saves time at the top of the hill. TBA.
I'm pretty sure I have everything now. If I've missed anything, it won't be anything too significant. The photo is annotated to show all the different components. Some of them, like the boots, pants & wrist guards, I already had from back home, but most of the big ticket stuff I have accumulated over the last few months.
I'm good to go!
So, where's the ski lifts?
The lift discount cards and passes go on sale in the next couple of weeks and the lifts open November 8.
