Getting ready for the lift
Getting warmed up for a fun filled snowboarding day.
I just love the snow quality at Mt. Naeba in Niigata prefecture.
I've also definitely got the hang of my new board. I can ride her with ease and as they say, 'gamay na'.
Also had a few accidents today, just one collision with another lady rider. It was inevitable, we were both caught at each other's path one second too late. I didn't want to hurt her so I turned my board as far away from her.
The penalty? I stumbled over, rotated my injured ankle, I actually grimaced with pain and my goggles and bonnet flew up in the air.
I take all these as part of the sport, so I'm fine and ready to ride again!
