Snowboarding

Isabela pulled me with her right arm then holding my hand to the storybook station. When we arrived at the station she sat down on a blue pillow and she patted the spot next to her and told me “Sit down over here.” I sat down and she said “close your eyes.” I did what I was told to do and after a minute Isabela told me “Ok you can open them now” I opened my eyes and in my lap I saw a book called “The Biggest Snowman” She then pointed at the book and looked at me and said “Can you read me this…

When I first read, “Up in the Air, and Down, With a Twist” I was instantly brought back to the ten days that I spent in Springhill, Colorado where freestyle skiing was the norm. The lodge where I stayed was one of the lesser popular resort for skiing because my mother refused to let myself or my father ski in fear of injury. On the contrast, I felt immersed in the winter culture, and this article brings back those fond memories of my vacation. The author, Henry Fountain is able to catch the…

I’m here to tell you about Drew Burton. When many of us see Drew Burton, we think he’s just your average basketball player who probably owns numerous t-shirts that varying from “ball is life” to having air jordan logos on them and may or may not have a finsta dedicated to him doing trickshots with a basketball.

Snowboarding I looked up at the huge hill with my snow pants, coat, gloves, boots and hat. My new orange and yellow digital Camo snowboard was in my hand.As I stared in stun at the hill, I thought it might be quicker to fly to Mt. Everest and climb that then climb this hill. We were in my grandparents backyard that was probably big enough to make a football field. I felt butterflies flying around in my stomach as if they were in prison trying to escape.I heard footsteps behind me. “Get up…

So I decided I am going to change my topic to “Should the last three “strictly ski” resorts continue to be allowed to ban snowboarding”. So on that note, I am going to take the opposition to the claim that they should be allowed to ban snowboarding. Today, snowboarding can be enjoyed around the country, with a multiple of resorts nationwide which allow free rein for skiers and snowboarders alike. Although, unfortunately, there remain three resorts in this country who continue to discriminate…

I've always loved snowboarding through sickness and through health. It’s a stress reliever that helps me cope with my problems. When I was thirteen I had colorful green and white snowboard with abstract designs, when I stood tall it would come up to my chin. I grew attached to it because I've been through so much with the board. You could tell it was starting to wear down due to cracks in the base that looked like large canyons and every year I would take it with me to Vail to use it. Many…

taste of hot sunshine everyday. But if this dream ever comes true, I might just vacation in the snow. Every now and then cold can be good. The one thing that would possess me to subject myself to the bitter air is the rejuvenating activity of snowboarding. Despite the thin, cold mountain atmosphere, the slopes teach me something that is not as easily learned at the beach. The sound of wind replaces the noise of stress and all the ruckus of reality; up there I can find a peace not even the…

The darkness of snowboarding My alarm sounds as I jump out of bed filled with such enthusiasm. The darkness of the winter morning also made me fearful of what I was about to get myself into. Despite the fear,This was probably the only time I have ever been excited to get out of bed. There was a good reason for it: I am going snowboarding for the first time today. My mom and I are making a trip over to Shawnee Ski resort today. I have been waiting for this day all year, however, I wasn’t only…
