Tamworth Snowdome
Today was my first time on a real snowboard and it was amazing! i did a 2 hour lesson which taught me how to use my toe and heel edge to go down a slope. I found the toe edge was easier to control than the heel edge! Today was my first time in the Tamworth snowdome aswell its pretty wicked quite alot of shiznit to do which is cool!

Chill Factore
So me n my girlfriend Nikki who has been snowboarding before in France (she is actually pretty good) went to the new snow venue thing in Manchester the CHILL FACTORe. I was basically soiling myself because today was a recreational session and i can only just about go down a slope on my toe and heel edge. I started halfway up the slope but there was just no speed from there so i decided to go to the top!! to get to the top we had to use those poma lifts which was interesting!! managed to master that though! once i went down the slope for the first time my nerves went n i just wanted to keep going. Its soo good.
This session was actually a real help because i could go over everything that i was taught on tuesday and try some other stuff which was cool!!
28 days till france!
