Well here it is, a paragraph expressing my feelings about
snowboarding. Snowboarding gives you an epic feeling of intensity and clarity. It’s
just nothing but an experience you have to live through to truly understand,
sometimes when you're riding down in the deep powder, you hear nothing but the
silent smooth ride of your board through the bright white blanket of pillowy
fluff. It feels like you're flying through the air with no worry for the world
below or ahead of you. You want to just fly away but the board won't let you,
you have to come to your senses at some point or you might run into a tree. A
tree is a harsh reminder of reality along with pain, pain from hitting a dense
pine tree with enough force to knock over a large person. So while just letting
go is fun and exhilarating, pay attention from time to time or you might just
die.

The Health Benefits of Snowboarding
Well in a Health Article I found, there is lots of
information describing the many health benefits of Snowboarding. Like all the
muscles it improves like the ankles, calves, quads, and your core muscle groups
like your arms and shoulders. Snowboarding also makes you more flexible from
all the bending you have to do to balance yourself at high speeds, and the more
flexible your joints are, the less likely you are to break any bones in other
things you do. Though there is possibility of head injury, all you have to do
is just wear a helmet and you'll be safe from most injuries, and if you really
want to be safe then you could just stay home, because there’s danger in almost
everything you do. All this just proves my point in why snowboarding is such a
great activity to exercise in your daily life, it properly lists and explains
much more benefits of snowboarding and how it can improve your life like how it
can increase your concentration by having to look for paths of ice or the way
the moves for a path to go down, concentration is used in everything you do and
this is just more that can add more to your life. While it misses a few things
like how great it is for recreation and relaxation when you are feeling down or
how it is good for the environment as it brings in money, plus it can burn more
than 500 calories an hour. I personally love all the benefits snowboarding
brings you, but I didn't know that worked out your core muscles, it’s a lot
better for you than you would think. So
If you’re having trouble losing weight and being consistent, than
consider going snowboarding more often, you can lose weight and have fun at the
same time.

Interdisciplinary
While working with Legos last semester for my prrevious post and resewarching them, i found that legos are made fro the same matertial they the underlying part as a snowboard. So essentially i can totally make a snowboard out of melted down legos and ride it.

Humor Post
Lets say it plainly, who in their right mind would possibly heavily strap themselves to a chunk of metal and plastic and jump down a steep hill? The answer is..... pretty much everyone. No person stops to think this is ABSOLUTELY CRAZY!

Interview
Well today I got the chance to interview Zach Bluhm, and he told me a story about his experience, this is what he had to say :
"I have some crazy stories of my snowboarding experiences. I was just cruising, shredding the gnar gnar. It was the last run i was gonna do that day. I was catching some speed and i was going pretty fast hitting jumps and what not. I lost control and crashed pretty hard and I felt my bone in my arm break. It was pretty scary. So there I was riding down holding my broken arm scared out of my mind. I finally found my dad and we rode down the rest of the slope and we got to a hospital. It was hella scary but i'm over it now."
