This was Kendrick’s second time snowboarding ever, so he thought it best to wear a helmet (a good idea for everyone, regardless of skill level…and yeah, I should probably take my own advice).
I quizzed the charming young man who helped me with my rental equipment, and learned that a) Burton equipment pretty much sucks, b) that said, the Burton Lip-Stick (wonder who they’re marketing to?) is a revelation, and c) Never Summer boards are awesome.
