Shaun White is in a class of his own sweeping the winter X-Games and Olympics for years on end in first place. There are different varieties of snowboarders from the cautious riders, the intermediate boarders, the all out flyers, and the professionals.

But a heavy snowfall came and blanketed the ground as we looked out the windows in the morning. Worse yet, the storm was expected to last for four or five days, informed by the radio weather report.

In 1969 Dimitrije Milovich started making snowboards, he was the first to actually create a snowboard. In 1972 Milovach started his new company called Winterstick, he produced many snowboards and got articles in Newsweek, playboy, and powder which gave him a name for his new gear. This got Milovach’s name out there from being in the press and TV. He only stayed in business until 1980, but is still recognized till today for what he’s done for snowboarding today. In the late 1970's and early 1980's, Vermont was home to the first established snowboard competition in the world the National Races at Suicide Six in Pomfrey, VT.

We still had time for fun such as sleigh rides down the road in front of our house, skiing in one of the fields that had a steep slope (these skis were hand made by Dads cousin Augie (August Johnson) or Ice skating on one of the three fishing pons we had. Our skates were the kind that clamped onto your shoes. No fancy shoe skates like you have now. As we skated the clamps would loosen and you would have to stop and tighten them. There was also a strap that went around your ankle that kept them from falling completely off.
Running head: Adolescence Observation Paper Adolescence Observation – My Little Brother Devon October 1, 2008 Danielle Cooper For this paper, I chose to observe my little brother Devon, who is fourteen years old and just started high school last week.
