Lake Tahoe

Lake Tahoe, pretty cool huh? I was in California and in Nevada at the same time. I went to Lake Tahoe last winter vacation and it isn’t the first time I have gone either. Obviously I went to go snowboarding like usual. I have been snowboarding since a long time ago so I am pretty good at it. I can go on double black diamond trails and love to go to trick parks where there are pipes, and rails. I haven’t done a rail but I have gone off jumps and can pop some tricks. My favorite trick to impress people going on ski lifts and having to wait the stressful boring time all the way up the mountain is the 360 tail grab. Even though it might seem complicated it is really not, I got it on a couple of tries. So anyways, I was hitting the park all the time with a nice 140 board and some nice Flow bindings. It was really cold and there was a huge snow storm which cause more than 15 feet of snow to fall. But, my foot was hurting so much I could barely resist since I did not tie my boots tight enough. My foot was bending when I would turn and would hurt a lot when I would have to “skate” with my board on a flat to get to another lift. This was because the mountain (I was at Heavenly) was more than 10,000 feet in elevation, so if you would want to get to the top, you would have to take multiple ski lifts. So, I had an awesome time enjoying my snowboarding practice and looking and laying down on the nice, fluffy, white, powdery, fresh, snow that had just fallen and popping tricks of ramps to impress people by seeing a kid like me doing big tricks. I had the time of my life and I recommend you to go to Heavenly too!

That’s pretty cool that you made 360 tail grab. I also went to Heavenly California Lodge to ski but I wasn’t so good since it was my first time. What other tricks can you do?
