About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Inbetween adventures, searching for that purpose

ABOUT ME

I'm a self-selected draftee transplant from the far-horizon, flat-earth, geo-centric region of the plains/woodlands boundary of the heat stricken and moist state of Tejas. After being awarded my diploma from the university, I started to travel and settled with the snow and elk. I'm working as a snowboard instructor and driver and enjoying the valley one day at a time.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Watching a full moon rise in the mountains right at sunset. Fantastic image of color and sight.

Torsional Flexion

Instead of using tilting or pivoting moves on your snowboard, twisting the board along the longitudinal axis creates a shape change in the edge. This allows you to carve tight turns and use your energy in a more efficient manner when riding your snowboard.
