I'm so excited - hopefully going on Saturday in Wisconsin. It's not a huge place but it's something. I've really not been snowboarding in a proper place since 2000, the last time I was in Breckenridge, where we rode every January during college. Only been to some really small places in Wisconsin so my girlfriend could try and learn how to do it.
But just found out about a bus service to a couple "mountains" in Wisconsin, and it's like a whole new door was opened for me. I'm pumped - they do trips usually every Saturday - 3 hour bus ride there and back, drinks on the bus, and lift ticket for $89.
The main thing I'm excited about is, this place has a decent park, and I've never really had the time to work on those skills before. College trips were with more skiers and we were just all over Breck. Took my board in for a tune-up last night - I bought it in 98 and it's still in great shape, but I'm totally considering buying a new one after talking to a guy in the shop. Boards are so much lighter and better now. Got a new jacket coming in the mail tomorrow as well!
