Can you remember when

You have probably heard stories, rumors, legends, and alot of stuff across the bar but the truth is snowboarding was an outlaws sport. In the beginning we weren't allowed to ride the lifts, or the slopes and had to hike off to find places to ride. Snowboarding culture has always had the chance to tap into the goods and left skiing to our parents and such. As time has passed, have we become those same people?. As an example, I love Snurfing, I had a disgruntled shuttle driver yelling me off the hill, an event organizer telling me the mountain was "concerned",  and the cutting yell of "its not allowed" and the latest story of "Johnny Law" cracking down on an lone "Snurfer".
Its all music to my ears, if they don't want to allow it, then it will happen.
Snurfing is to much fun, learn about it, try it and share it with your family and friends, it just might make your live a little bit better. JG

It's april 17th and I am still ready to go ride, winter is still going.

I can't complain, its been a great season, I managed to go to Sierra at Tahoe, Heavenly, Homewood, Squaw, Big White, Breckenridge, A basin not to mention all the stuff in between. I love the snowboarding, it is one of the best things I do. But the I love the "Snurfing", it fills all those empty spots in between. Sometimes the runs are short and unexpect places, sometimes magical with perfect snow and pitch. Between the two sports I balance my time on the snow and it makes me happy to be a part of both cultures. If you have never read my blog, well, about time, I build snowsurfboards "AKA Grellboards", the best accessory you could have at any time. Good for snow and works great to keep the kids busy doing something. I want to thank all my good friend for their support and looking forward to next season and for anyone in the southern hemisphere, we are ready to build and send boards.
