| guess u can call yourself a snowboarder if it makes u feel better and the fact you enjoy it and do actually participate in doing it (even if its is only for 2 weeks a year). besides there are plenty of different types of snowboarders. guess your part-timer if anything. |

(I see i'm not the only one that's home, skint and bored on a Friday night!!)
It depends....
Do you mean you only go away for 2 weeks a year? Or you only ride for 2 weeks a year - full stop!
For the other rest of the year do you ride dry slopes? Indoor snow slopes? Anything like that?
I've been snowboarding for 18months - almost completely on Dendix!!!  I've been to Cas twice and Tamworth once... Am I a real snowboarder? 
I don't think I care to be honest... 
At least you're not a skier!  |

what's a real snowboarder? someone who rides once every decade? someone like me who rides every ramp night without fail? an international pro?
if you can strap in and have fun then your a snowboarder  |

my defintion of a snowboarder=skint 360 days of the year, swears alot while riding, gets banned for a year, has two cracks in nose and tail of their board, endless rail damage including missing edges, has a stance wider than a suple gymnast and will be a cripple by time they are 21  |
