I can barely move
This saturday I went to Naeba in Niigata-ken for my second snowboarding trip of the season and I had a horrible day.
Through a combination of sleep deprivation, bad physical condition and poor equipment, I could barely make a turn 3 hours in the session. That and I went there with two of my friends who dragged me offtrail in a really nice slope of deep deep powder. That was great but it literraly finished me...
Net result of the day:
- I could barely move out of my futon to my sofa the next day...
- ... and when I got to my sofa, I could barely sit on it. I fell on a little mound of ice in the middle of the powder run, right in my tailbone. I have a huge bruise the shape of New Zealand right in the crack of my ass.
- My sunglasses somehow fell out of my jacket's inside pocket, probably in that same powder run. I had just bought them 2 weeks before, they were prescription lenses and cost me a fortune, I'm really pissed about it.
I think I'm going to pass on the weekly ski trips for a while...

It sounds as if the w00kie is already upset.
That really sucks about your glasses.
I’m glad I had a chance to ride with you though, it was a fun day. Found some more crazy runs the next time you feel like going out of bounds. Just let me know.
