Great weekend.  I love the people that I got to spend a snowboarding trip (first of many) with.

Every season I run a check on my gear to make sure they’re in top shape.

Beanie - need a new one

Goggles -  good condition will last for many seasons

Handkerchief - a dime a dozen, always does the job

Jacket -  Jacket is falling apart, it might be time for a new one, but I can squeeze a few more seasons out of this one.

Pants -  Pants are kaput.  Need new ones before next session.

Gloves -  Falling apart as well.  If I can afford it, I need to spring for new gloves/mitts

Boots -  Still going strong, but definitely showing age

Bindings - these were top of the line when I bought them.  They will last for awhile

Board -  Great as ever, needs to be waxed.

Can’t wait to see everyone again on New Year’s.
