Snowboarding
Deep Snowboarding Thoughts
If you’re a frequent visitor to this site, you probably noticed a couple of cosmetic changes – namely the highly inspirational Jake Burton quote at the top. The quote made me think: what other quotes, funny or otherwise, are floating around the Internet? The answer: too many to count, but I’ll share a few of the favourites I found:
“Snowboarding combines outdoor fun with knocking down trees with your face.” (Not sure who said this one.)
“There are no friends on a powder day.” (A well-known saying.)
“Skiers like to glide down the slopes in a series of graceful arcs; snowboarders like to attack the mountain, slashing, spinning, tumbling, going backward, blasting through snowdrifts, leaping off cliffs, getting their noses pierced in midair, etc.” – Dave Barry
“I know a lot of people that used to ski, but I don’t know anyone who used to snowboard.” (Apparently from an ad?)
And probably my favourite:
“Snowboarding is an activity that is very popular with people who do not feel that regular skiing is lethal enough.” – Dave Barry, again.
