Snowboarding was not quite

However, I couldn’t expect

Mount Hood Meadows rents
snowboards, hut I don’t hlame
them They didn't forte me
onto one, rather, it was my am
bitious friend. Drew
I'm sure that somewhere on
Mount Hood is a plat e or a per
son who offers some sort of
etl ti tall on a I a p proa t h ! o
snowboarding in exchange fur
financial compensation But
Drew didn't think this was im

Drew clapped me on the
!>.i( k. assuming ! was attempt
ing humor, ami convinced me
to try it out
Before I could sav "broken
ms k, we were at the top of the
express lift looking down the
slope someone had named "Ki
ev ator Shaft
The image produced by such
a name needs no clarification
It speaks for itself 100 vertical
yards of mogul-infeslod snow
An expert's dream A begin
ner's nightmare
I suggested that perhaps the
Buttercup slopes were more rny
speed Drew hit me with the
usual pansy-wimp names and
sat on the snow to but kle his
txiolx to the snowboard
I did the same, deciding to
replace rny despair witfi tire
spirit of adventure Securing
my straps and filled with vigor.
I flipped myself off my knees
and stood on the board then
promptly fell over
Drew laughed while standing
on his hoard to prove Ins supe
rior ability Then he, too,
quickly fell over Unfortunate
ly, he had been resting very
near Elevator Shaft, and ins fall
icxik him over the edge He was
quite adept at reaching the bot
tom. never breaking from Ins
excessive tumble
Unstrapping mv hoard and
descending tile slope on my
two stable feet, 1 found Drew at
tin' bottom, nursing a swollen
wrist and emitting a green
cloud of profanity
Drew hiked back up the
slope, rode the lilt down and
traded his snowboard for skis
I have skied for many years,
but snowboarding was some
thing entirely different Balance
and courage play key roles, .inti
1 didn't have much of either
Controlling the board re
quires twisting your upper tor
so urui kicking your feet If
done turret tly, the board will
either slide straight, or turn and
glide on iis rail
The feeling produced is like
none other — defying gravity
and slipping across the snow
with a surfer's agility.
This, of course, is the ideal
situation My attempts were hot
exactly ideal.
The hoard had a tendency to
go where it wished, which
proved frustrating Mv memory
of the day fails into sections of
motion, separated by violent
collisions with the packed
snow
I found success in the midst
of these i rashes A certain
sense of "What the hell am I
doing?" visited my brain as it
repeatedly connected with the
snow Somehow, and some
where in it all. came a whole
lot of fun

Romano arrived at the stun* with slicked

When asked by Knapp how tile display should

any way you want me "
Romano is the calendar's centerfold,
