So I know that most of these trip reports have photos, but I am new to all of this so please be patient.
Since this was my first time snowboarding my wife and I took leasons and quickly appreciated how difficult snowboarding is over skiing. I got in 3 more runs down the cub run before I took a spill and really bruised my backside that did me in for the day. Even at this point of being bruised and feeling beat up we both stated we enjoyed boarding better than skiing.
Satuday we wanted to improve over current skills so we took another private leason and I saw drastic results thanks to the leason and the soft conditions thanks to the drizzle then hours of snowfall. i actually was able to link together a few turns and control my direction. My wife was able to do both a heelside and toeside stop just not consistently.
We had a great time and resulting from this great trip are really considering hitting the beech summit if we can find a way to work it out.
I hate i never saw any of the other boardmembers but I am sure us being on the newbie slopes didn't give us the exposure.

Glad to hear that the ski school helped you guys out. I taught up there for 7 years and this is my first season away. If I hadn't moved to ATL I quite possibly could have been your teacher. Keep it up, snowboarding is better than skiing! hahaha
