Mountainboard in Spirit

This photo symbolises what mountainboarding means to me at this moment in time. That even though I cannot physically train, my spirit is still out there finding ways to follow the path set by my heart. In these twilight zone times, many of us have been cut off from mountainboarding. It hit me hard as I only discovered surfing dirt last year and was ramping up for an awesome new year traveling around Europe, meeting others with the same crazed passion and pushing myself out of my comfort zone to achieve that indescribable thrill. The final blow came when the world's were cancelled. I am 48 this year, coming into this sport very late. I am well aware that I may not have many years left throwing myself down boarder cross tracks or launching myself precariously over kickers and ramps. Yet, despite the deprivation I am feeling physically, my love for mountainboarding is still alive in my heart. The forums and online fellowship have made it possible for me to train in a virtual sense. In this way, I feel that my spirit is still mountainboarding.
