...or, things to consider when snowboard steep slopes covered with slush, or, why I really really really like helmets! I'm dropping down a steep slope on my old Buirton all-mountain board; the snow is slush and running really slow...I come to the steepest part and throw all my weight downhill to try speed thing along. Board hangs in the slush and thanks to the miracle of gravity, I continue on. So while I was lying there yesterday contemplating whether I'd actually broken anything in my spectacular snowboard endo (answer...no, but this morning I felt like little gnomes with 2X4s had paid me a visit), I realized that there were two important lessons to be learned that apply directly to gunny things:
1) It's a Bad Thing for your mind to make bets your body can't cover.
2) Never overplay your hardware.
Thank god for advil.
