SNOWBOARDING.
It's the freedom of expression. Everyone has a different stance, a different style, a different technique, a different line, a different run, a different experience. When you see a crew run a set in sequence and although all may look similar, there are unique variances in each person's steeze that makes each individual person a star in their own right. Freeride. Freestyle. Back country. Street. Park. Pipe. The boundaries are constantly being pushed and broken. We are all the same. Snowboarders. But were are all unique. We ride rocker or cambered decks. We ride powder boards or short jib sticks. We wear flashy baggy kits or tight emo pants. The opportunity for individualism and self expression is limited only by the imagination of the individual.

Homemade

A few days ago, I had a friend ask me about the backyard setup we have in the backyard and where we got the box. Homemade! And making the box was easy . . . getting the top sheet a little tougher, but very worth it.

Originally, there was an article in Transworld and unfortunately I haven't been able to find it but just doing a quick search on youtube and ehow there are tons of references to "How to build a snowboard box".

Here is another good one incase you need more speed for the entry: http://snowboarding.transworld.net/how-to/how-to-build-a-drop-in-ramp/

That being said, you don't have to build a crazy box to have fun. One of my favorite things is that little black garbage lid that I spin on. Sometimes you gotta be creative and think outside the box. Wuaaa wuaaa
