Things you should know:

• Air Conditioning does not waste more gas.
• If there was a small inexpensive device that could improve fuel economy, the automakers would be all over it
• Windows down or windows up make no difference to fuel economy
• There is no ideal day to purchase your gas (although prices tend to be higher on weekends)

I went with my brother’s friends to Lake Tahoe on Friday, they gave me a couple of good pointers and tips to tear up the mountain. I’ve gone once before, but myexperiences were limited to falling down the mountain several times. Since then, I’ve learned a couple of things.

• Go to the bathroom before hand. You don’t want to have to go while up there.
• Keep your weight forward, always. Otherwise, you’ll fall. Also, it’s hard to steer with your weight in the back.
• Keep your knees bent.
• Don’t go faster than what you’re used to.
• Keep on the edges of the board.
• Keep hydrated.
• Boreal has 10$ fridays (you can use the lift all day on fridays for only 10$).
• Wear sunscreen and chapstick, the sun reflects off the ice and you can get burned.
• Don’t wear too much, it can get really hot when the sun is out.
• If you are going fast enough, you cut across bumps like a knife.
