Well guys. I'm at my one year anniversary. I also conveniently placed it as my 1500 post. I will now discuss my time being as a skier and a NS'er. enjoy!
I started off as a little scout in the skiing world. My parents started me as young as 4 years old. At that age I was still to young to understand the greatness of the sport. So i quickly lost interest. My parents then forced me to go skiing again at the local mountain at the age of 7. I instantly fell in love with having those slippery wooden planks on my feet. I began begging my parents to take me to bigger and better places. So at the age of 8 instead of traveling to Europe or my home country of Japan we planned to ski trips. One to Seven Springs and the other to Whistler Blackcomb. Then when I reached middle school I instantly joined my schools ski club. had a blast going 6 times a year. Onto high school with the ski club also in mind. I am currently a junior at my school and am disappointed to say that my school has canceled ski club this year. Super sad about that but its whatevs. Get to drive soon. Anyway, i purchased my own pair of twin tip planks last year with the help of my friend, Michael Langen (yeastyboy11) with my own bank. Ever since getting into Freeskiing my life could not be better. I had so much fun last year thinking outside of the box and doing stuff that traditional skiers would think is stupid. My local hill opens in a few days and I'm uber pumped to get back on the slopes. It's been killing me sitting in front of my computer watching the great happenings of the Freeski world from last year. I hope to make a lot more friends than I did last year and have a load more fun too. That's gonna be hard because i had way too much fun last year with it.
My time on NS. I'd have to say at the beginning I acted like the typical noob constantly bickering about Tom Wallisch. Then around the middle stint I really found a love for the site. This site has a really strange addiction. I knew what I was doing and could fit in with the people here. I'd say those times are sadly over though. With the growing population of the sport many new kids are coming in here ruining and causing so much hate in the forums. And now every time you post a thread some new kid makes a smart ass response that is completely unnecessary. It did not use to be that way. No matter how ridiculous the question or post was something positive was always said by someone. And I'd like to thank those people that still continue doing that.
So I now close my one year anniversary statement. Thank you NS, thank you skiing, and thank the lord above for giving us all the chance to do something we all love... Skiing. Peace.
