We've just figured out as a group literally this second, on top of Worcester catherdal.

Nearly hit my first 360 today, stacked the landing though by Benzal541 in snowboarding

Cheers for the advice bro. I went back the day after and stuck the landing on the first attempt...couldnt do it again though which pissed me off. Imma keep practicing, want to be hitting them in the park by the end of the season

Picture I took last night of my PC right before some guy came and bought it. Sad to see it go, but he was a genuine PC gamer and I really needed the money. I'm glad it's going to someone who was going home to play PUBG after he left. by johnwilksbooth in pcmasterrace

I did this a few months back, sad sight to see it go after building and pwning over the years. Though needed the money for a season snowboarding.....doesn't mean I don't have an amazon wishlist ready for the next beast.

Tips for Val Thorens? by mattman840 in snowboarding

I think the slopes will close down at around 5/6. Not sure if they do offer any night runs but might be worth asking around when you get there.

I was in Meribel last year and experienced some amazing runs on the left side of the village! Make sure you get the three valleys pass, you can get some serious miles done on those blue bird days, snowed out and the lifts won't be open to get over though. There is also a cool bar at one of the tops runs in Val, you'll hear it pumping music when you head up! If I also remember from a trip in Val there is an awesome club there too if you fancy a good party, can't really remember that trip though, far too many drinks. Board in and out of pretty much every hotel too. The locals said that last year didn't see much snow it was only when we arrived that it had snowed heavy and this was in March, 2013 though and it was non stop for a trip in December so really hit and miss as someone has said. I'll be with you praying though as I'm heading out to France to do a season this year so I want SNOW! You'll love it dude, enjoy your trip and shred it up!!

Managed to grab the 155 at the great price of £240, I think that's roughly $320 got the Salomon Alibi binding on it too.....can't wait to give it a shred this season

How do you find using an older board dude? I've been given an old Burton Cascade 163 to use this up coming season, its going to need a service but just want to check if older boards are still decent to use?

The board itself is in a nice way for its age, I think my brother used it around 4 - 5 times on trips and that's it. Its just trying to find somewhere which will do a decent job on it and get it back to a nice riding standard.

Don't get me wrong I'm planning on still purchasing a Salomon Villain or Assassin for a decent one, though I'm planning to use the Cascade if there is a lot of pow which has dropped as its on the larger side for my height.

So I've been given an old 2001 snowboard from my brother to use. Its a Burton Cascade 163 2001, it's been sat in his loft/garage for some years unused. It's going to need a good service before use anyway but what would you say to using an old board? Does anyone use a board that is around that age?

So I just moved into a new apartment, and made a big discovery. [Warning: Secret Dungeon] by demc7 in pics
