I snowboard, but haven't had a chance to the past couple seasons. Stupid work.

Gonna try to get up to canyons at park city sometime this season, though

You should come ski/board the Rockies up here in Canada! I am blessed I have 5hills all within like 4 hours of my house, and the 2 best are like 2 hours away I haven't been out much these last few years, I wonder how the FRS is forgetting me to the hill haha!

Can't effing wait for the season to get started again, we were cheated last month by the poor weather patterns. I try to hit whistler once a year, but I'm up at my local mountains every weekend in December through March. Let it begin!

Snowboard and skier, so I don't judge

Boarder here and I drive my FR-S up to the mountains in the winter too.
Really nice to own a board that fits within the space constraints of our interior.

I would think that people who like the FR-S as a drivers car would be satisfied with snowboarding. On the other hand both the FR-S and snowboards are tail happy

@OP. Last year I bought Dynastar C78 Pro R20 (most stupid long name ever I know)

I never had Dynastar before, I'm a long time Atomic and Rossi fan. But the price was right, and I was looking for a fast cruiser because I'm not racing now, and my knees are shot.

I can provide more details if you are interested, and some other possible options I looked at!

No joke though, i'm still blown away by how many mountains frown upon or actually say no to snowboarding. Surprising but still real.

Anyway, i keep the frs away from the snow, that's what the 4wd Rav4 with AT's is for. I just blow right pass all the people on their knees putting on chains in the cold and smh.
