Are you tired of staring at the boiling concrete wishing it was a powdery mountain trail? Have you recently tried to snowboard inside your apartment?
If so, you may have come down with a bad case of the snowboarding blues. Doctors recommend a healthy dose of fresh winter air once daily, but if your stuck in summer like half of the world right now than here’s a few ways to pass the time.
Skateboarding. What you can’t? I don’t care, go try. It is one of the next best things to snowboarding and much cheaper. Grab a board and go cruise on some concrete until the first flake falls.
Surfing. If available, take up surfing and get a sunburn doing something worthwhile. Boogie boarding doesn’t count, but your Mom said it’s OK.
Mountain Biking. If you can afford to break your bank on a decent mountain bike, than send donations to me so I can get one. You can even take your bike to most boarding mountains and try your luck at one of the summer trails, watch out for those kickers.
Motocross. Speed freaks will definitely find their fix in dirt biking or even quad racing. Hawk that old guitar or any other junk lying around and buy a big boys bike.
Video Games. Although there are no decent snowboarding games, killing some time in front of the TV has never been easier with todays console systems. Make sure to hit the gym come late august or you’ll be the one left behind on the trail.
Camping. Leave the Blackberry at home and grow a beard for a few days like nature intended. Grab some buddies and some booze and head into the woods for a week long stink fest with nothing to do. Killing time has never felt so dirty.

I have seen a little bit of it, if it is anything like Skate® then it will be amazing. We plan to add a movie/game review section eventually so look for it in the future.
