Field of activity: “Lawyer. Currently on maternity leave. “
Why did you choose snowboard: “I always looked at snowboarders with admiration and bated breath! Then I met my husband, a snowboarder, and my fate was decided. My husband gave me a board, took me to a mountain in Khvalynsk, showed me how to go down with a fir-tree, and left to practice the skill. I somehow intuitively learned to go down the mountain. 4 years have passed since then. And last year I sadly admitted that I hadn’t made any progress in this sport. And finally I began to learn to ride, and not slide down the mountain by the will of fate. So I can’t talk about myself as a great snowboarder claiming the title, but I am writing this so that if someone stumbles like me for so long, then start skating, and not just taking pictures with a board in a beautiful burgundy suit ! “
Advice for beginner snowboarders: “Find like-minded people – it’s more fun together! Practice your technique, and as soon as you start to succeed, you yourself will not be able to give up this sport. “
