Smiling despite bruised buttocks
I’ve just uploaded a few pictures from my trip to Mt Buller last weekend. This was my second time up to the snow and I decided to try snowboarding instead. I must’ve fallen over 50 times versus only twice or thrice the last time I tried skiing but I’d still snowboard over skiiing anyday – at my novice level anyway.
Just a few tips for any of you first timers to the snow:
- Drink plenty of water – before, during and after; do not underestimate how dehydrated you will get
- Do not skimp on the anti-UV goggles
- If you try snowboarding, make sure you get wristguards; there will be plenty of falling on your wrists (a big no-no I’m told)
