About Me...

My name is Sam Watson, and i live to snowboard.  Me and my friends ride at our local mountain, Greek Peak.  Its really lame, same runs, crappy park, but nonetheless, its kick ass.  We all love goin up there anytime we can, and just tearing up the park.  Ripping up backcountry is a once a winter thrill, not what i focus on.  My passion is freestyle/urban snowbaording.  I compete in about 5 rail jams, a freestyle contest or two, and a couple jam sessions every year.  Go for broke I say, cause if u dont have style or push yourself to your limits, you'll get nowhere.  If you scare yourself riding away from the tripple-kink rail, then you just starting to ride hard enough.  I skate on my free time.  I started because i figured it would help with snowboarding, and it has alot.  Now all i focus on is skating and snowboarding.  I ride every day, one or at least the other, sometimes both.  So riding 365 days a year, it turns into my life...

Q&A - Personal

What inspires you to compete?

How fun it is, and for me, the stress sometimes makes u try tricks u'd never think of, so its a good way to progress.

Do you train? What does your schedule look like?

I train alot. I have my own spot to ride at my house, with jumps, rails, a QP, and a tree jib. In the off season I skateboard and wakebaord, always trying to progress, because those three sports intertwine alot. I started lifting weights to get alot mor upper body strength, along wioth core exercises. Its pretty much year round training.

Music?

Whatever i'm in the mood for, but always up-beat.

What do you want to be when you grow up?

Deffinatly a professional snowboarder, filming with pheel good inc. or mack dawg productions.

What has been your most embarrassing moment?

Trying to learn Backside Rodeo 540's. I kept under-rotating the flip and sliding out on my face, lots of girls watching too...
