Snowboarding & Skiing
I learned to ski in winter of 2006. I have been skiing every winter since. In the 2009/2010 season I skied about 140 hours, as well as learning to snowboard. In the summer of 2010 I bought a new snowboard, but despite this I mainly skied and haven't improved much.
Mountain Biking
In 2009 I started mountain biking, I'm very lucky to live within riding distance of the peak district. I have a Orange Air-O Kona Kahuna Deluxe. I went to the Fort William mountain bike world cup in June 2010, it was an amazing event.. So in 2011 I was back, such an amazing atmosphere, I'd recommend it to any mountain bikers, if nothing else to awe at how fast the world class guys and girls are.
Photography
I was getting into photography in May 2010, by that I mean taking photographs not snapshots. I was starting to understand composure and exposure. By January 2011 my photography skills were much better having started a photography course 4 months earlier.
