It's just a short ski that kids can do tricks on. The longest is about 50 centimeters. Air will be caught, and powder will be had when the South Tahoe Snowboard Series reconvenes for the season. The program, under the umbrella of the United States of America Snowboard Association, is run locally by Donna and Alan Vano, both professional extreme athletes and competitors in the series.

Stretching your way to the slopes The snowsport season has arrived and it is always a good idea to set some goals. Typically, our goals reference a mid-season date.

Warm-up stretching exercises A good rule of thumb would be to start these excersices now and try to perform them twice a day, every other day.
