Ötscher by Snowboard!

Today, Sepp, Lisa, Stephen, Ulrick, and I went to Ötscher again. This time I rented a snowboard instead of using some of the fams ski's. I didn't do to well on the skis last time. But on the snowboard I had a blast. I skied once before about ten years ago, but I've only been snowboarding each winter since then.

[I'm ready to prove I can snowboard; they don't believe me based on my skiing performance.]

Today there was lots of thick dry powder. And because falling in powder isn't the least bit painful, I tried a few more crazy tricks and ran a few more runs than I normally would have done. Sep reminded me of the Austrian rule of one shot of schnapps per crash. Needless to say, mittagesessen was lots of fun.

Wanna comment?
