Snowboarding
Strapping my front foot into my binding so that it is as tight as can be
Pushing up to the line to take the chair lift to the very top of the run
Looking down at the tree tops sprinkled with snow like in a painting
Strapping in and getting pumped up for my final run of the X-Games
Doing the first box switch and then hitting off the jump with an air
Doing a rail with a 360 indy out spinning as fast as a top
Hitting the biggest jump with a misty as high as a kite
Going up the bank with a 360 out with the crowd screaming for me
Unstrapping my bindings to wait for my scores as anxious as a child on Christmas morning
Getting the highest score and receiving the gold medal as happy as a child on their birthday
