I just went down my first black run. I took another lesson, I was a little out of my depth but I am still alive. We practiced:

ollies
180 type things
carving
went in a sort of natural halfpipe
blackruns
healtoeing on flat bits

The hardest and most scary part was the flat bits. It is very difficult to ride a snowboard on flat runs. I stacked it and hurt my butt. My butt hurts alot right now. I cant do flat bits, but I can do steep bits good.

Apart from boarding, havent been doing much. Except we went to the pub after work last night and they were promoting the premeire of the Ali G show. There was a gold limo parked out front and then in the pub there were two guys dressed in orange velour tracksuits with lots of chains and sunglasses on. One was djing and the other rapping. They rapped about Claire:

and over there, with a beautiful stare
sits a blonde, drinking red wine
lookin so fine

Then they gave us ali G chains and ali G gogle cleaning cloth.
