After figuring out whether to fix the bindings regular or goofy, there was nothing to stop him. Getting a feeling for the right balance is the first step to a successful snowboarding career. Secret hint for anyone who wants to have a go – do not wear too many thermals on a warm day! Our friend lost an estimated 3 litres of sweat this day…

I was really impressed by Aaron’s performance. He said he did water skiing before. Good on ya mate!

I don’t know how often he fell over that day, but he always got up again. Good spirit, and that’s how you learn it.

Champion performance! Have fun practising on Mount Ruapehu as soon as the season starts!
