Moving On With Snowboarding

We're officially saying goodbye to the summer now, what with the clocks going back. Here I am sat looking out the window and seeing a dull, rainy and dark 4 o'clock in the afternoon.

This isn't all bad. For sure, I'll be missing the sun and light evenings, but this darkness does mean that the snowy season is finally getting here :)

Having been on Twitter now for a few months now I thought I'd follow the whitelines snowboard mag. They've not long put up an article saying Terje Haakonsen might be pushing to have slopstyle added to the 2014 winter Olympics.

I can't believe how snowboarding has changed over the years. When I was a lad, snowboarding being in the Olympics encompassed everything that snowboarding was not about. Couple that with it being managed and controlled by the FIS - outright offensive.

Oh how things change...
