Well I'm home. :(

Hmm,

It seems that my infamous blog has managed to earn itself a poor reputation already and all I can say is it's really not my fault!

For some reason the computer that I had access to in the Moontains was rather rubbish and would not let me see my blog let alone post on it. The one time I did manage to post was a fluke and I think that Blogger got so upset with me for managing to pervade it's defense system, that it promptly barred me from using Google, all weather reporting websites as well as shoving my face in the ground whenever I tried to log back into Blogger!

Bastard website.

Well regardless I'm back in the UK now and our discerning website has finally allowed me to log back in (perhaps it can tell that I have managed to have a decent wash).

So on with the blogging.

3 weeks is up and I can finally place myself in the Snowboarder bracket (are there letters to be placed after my name for that?). I pretty much managed to complete all of my personal objectives but failed to complete two of my set objectives of pulling a 180 over a kicker and pulling a 360 on piste.


However I did manage to get some decent jumps over kickers and was starting to manage 180's on piste at some sort of speed.

You will unfortunately have to wait for evidence of this as I've got to get the vids off of Justin and upload and all sorts of stuff etc...

As for photos well again you may have to wait a bit. Rubbish I know but I'm not feeling too well and I'm still unpacking.

Will keep you posted.

P.S. BLOODY BLOGGER!

OMG Finally!

Righto,

Seems like I've finally managed to log into Blogger.

Not really sure what's going on with this website but I can't even view my own blog so I'm writing this hoping that it's going to post up correctly.

I've been out here for a week and met a load of cool people. Special mention must go to Liz and Emily who were also guests of Justin (the guy I'm staying with), who made the first week a real breeze. Ere!

So the first week has been pretty sweet. Getting myself up to speed and trying to work on technique etc... It's seems the two most important factors in snowboarding are confidence and staying relaxed and springy. Everything else just falls into place as you fall down the mountain.

We haven't had too much snow until yesterday and it's all of a sudden gone into overdrive. We've had two dumps in the past two nights with more tonight and even more forecast for Wednesday. I'm just praying the temp stays low enough that it doesn't turn into rain (snow's evil brother).

Well I'll try and get soe more info up here now that I seem to have managed to connect.

Cheers.

Blog Business

Well I've sorted out this blog thing so much that I can at least get some bloody text on a screen.

Not exactly the multimedia experience that I was hoping for, but it shall suffice for the moment.

Basically I'm pissing off for three weeks to spend some time in the snow and I wanted to have a site that I could show off all the awesome or painful things that I will be getting up to whilst in the Alps.

So here it is.

Short for the moment but I'll get some more stuff up here ASAP.

Cheers.
