Three Days of Learning to Snowboard
Whatever you have you heard about learning to snowboard, no doubt all of it is true.There are as many different experiences of learning to snowboard as there are people who have tried it. It is different for everyone.
Generally, it is not a walk in the park or a piece of cake. Generally, it is not as terrifying as you might imagine. Is it challenging, even difficult? Yes. Frustrating? It can be. Will your patience and perseverance be tested? Maybe. Will you go beyond what you thought you could acheive and have fun doing it? Most likely. Will you achieve less than what you expected to and be humbled and gracious? Possibly.
All of these things and many others might come up for as you are learning to snowboard. Many of these things will be happening at the same time. Learning to snowboard is generally not "sitting on a beach sipping a cocktail" type of fun, not laugh out loud knee-slapping fun, but it can be like that. I think of it as exhilirating, edge-of-your-seat, unpretentious, open-minded, authentic fun.
To Mike, Lindsey, Whitney, Jessi and My. Major props! You were inspirational in the past 3 days. Thanks for riding with me!

Dan,
My sincerest thanks to you for a fantastic three days of snowboarding. It was a wonderful first-time experience, and I’m sure it will prove to be the first of many. Thank you for your patience and encouragement.
Jessi and I tackled several blues on day 4 and had a great time after some rest from your punishment!
I very much appreciate your advice and will remember it each time I’m on a board.
Thanks again,
Whitney
