As I was cleaning up and putting away all my snowboard gear for the season, I reflected on what a great season 2007-2008 was. Two trips to Whistler, got to go to all the ski areas in Washington at least once, and on at least 5 occasions, I got to ride for absolutely free. The snow was great, but what really made it special was all the people I ended up meeting.
This friend started a group entitled "Hump Sessions Crew" and about 25 (yes, 25!!!) of us went up every Wednesday after work until night boarding at Snoqualmie ended in mid-March.
It reminds me of when you're little, and you're hanging out with your friends after school. Except we get a little more freedom from the parents and we get to go snowboarding instead.
It also reminds me of how Reaction Snowboards started out almost 10 YEARS AGO!!! In 1999, my friends and I just started out as "Team Reaction"... so being part of another group of passionate snowboarders all season was awesome. Especially since the past 2 years, my enthusiasm had waned when I had trouble finding people to go ride with.
So, thanks Hump Sessions, Alan Vu, Tera, and everyone else for making this season unforgettable.
