I decided today while chatting with a friend on IM that I'm going to try and go snowboarding 50 times this season. I arrived at this conclusion by figuring I've got about five months left before the snow is all gone X eight weekend days in a month, plus miscellaneous holidays and random days off. A lofty goal I know, and one I may not meet due to injury and/or death, but I will try come rain, snow, sleet or ice.
This weekend was days four and five of my new goal and they were excellent days. Even though there was no new snow, what snow there was had been chewed up enough and warmed up by a weather inversion that it created the effect of fresh powder. I spent both days working on launching from jumps (aka 'kickers') and the associated landings, which I'm getting pretty good at.
