Day 39 - carpets

Magic Carpet and Super Carpet. Two great places for beginners to practice on. I had two kids in class, level one. Level one means we spent the entire day on the carpets. 6inches of the fresh stuff fell overnight and it puked snow all day. The conditions were soft packed powder. It's hard to learn how to snowboard in these conditions cause the snow is so soft and sticky. It's hard to keep your board moving. But at the same time, it's great to learn in these conditions because when you fall, it doesn't hurt. My kids weren't quite picking up on the whole snowboarding thing today so they didn't move up a level at all. I hope to get some higher level kids tomorrow as I'd like to enjoy some of the 52 inches of snow we've received in the last week before the rain comes and turns it all to ice.
