“The motion of snowboarding is like
skateboarding or surfing. It's using some
force of nature. I don't know how to de
scribe it. It's phenomenal. It’s you ver
sus nature.”
Muckleroy lists the appeal of doing
something different as the reason for the
love of the sports she teaches.
"[It’s] a need for the non-traditional.
Think of the traditional sports. They've
become such fine-tuned athletes that par
ticipate in them. I mean, if you can’t run
a 40 [yard dash] in 10 seconds, what do
you do?” she said.
Hamilton said that the difference be
tween traditional and outdoor sports has
drawn her out of doors.
“[Outdoor sports] are more con
ducive to enjoying the intrinsic value
of it. They’re a little more individualis
tic than indoor sports. They’re more
laid back.”
Heath said the appeal of the experi
ence prompted him to try skydiving at
first.
“1 guess it was always something I
wanted to try,” he said. "I can't explain
the thing that made me want to do it so
bad the first time. It was an experience
that I thought would be incredible and I
w anted to see if I w as right. And then of
course I was and once w asn’t enough.”
“Imagine kinda
what yon always
thought flying
would feel like.
[SkydivingI is the
closest you're ever
gonna get on earth.’
