Fakie on the first day?

Day 1 training. We met the instructor last night and everyone thought we would be cruising around. However, after the first run we were asked to ride fakie (backwards). I mean a whole friggin' run! My snowboard was not set up correctly at all for this riding. On that single run I managed to land on my right ass cheek 5 times. Jane offered some "bruise cream" but she didn't like the idea of her applying it. I'm currently really sore due to the falls. Legs are in good shape. Still getting adjusted to the altitude.



Oh yeah. We have manuals and study material! I guess this is a course after all.
