There are more than only one dream to dream of

I have the desperate need to surf...just one single wave would be enough to get the stress out of my head...since that is quite impossible until next year (earliest would be spring o.O) I found a different way to board in some way =)
First, I will take kite surfing classes in vaccations (autumn). That'll be two days, but all day long and at the end you do a test and if you pass you get a licence. You can only kite-surf if you have that license in Germany. Yeah, that's Germany. It kinda makes sense though. Is it like that in other countries?
Second, I'm taking skateboarding classes in november. I wanted to do that much earlier (like 2 years ago) but was never able to because there were to few people. Seems like that problem is eliminated as other board-interested people have been found ;-)
Actually, I was never that interested in kite surfing, but when a friend asked me to take the classes I was just like "Whatever, you never know"...and last but not least, it's a sport that incudes a board and water, haha!
And skateboarding, well, I kinda have a certain "history" in that sport, let's just say I wanna improve my skills - a lot.
So I'm totally looking forward to these courses and I hope that I will soon get together enough money to buy a surfboard so the only problem will jsut just be to travel around to spots. But that shouldn't be a big problem, living in Europe. France is near! It is just about the money, like always! =)

PS.:In GoldenRide Magazine (I already told you about that) there's an article about the Les Ettes snowboard-teamriders Anne-Flore Marxer, Jenny Jones and Lisa Filzmoser. They went to a surfcamp in Biarritz, France and they really had fun. So, to all the snowboarders out there, try it out! Same goes to you, surfers.

GoldenRide Magazine

I am really happy to say that i finally found the (almost) perfect magazine for me.
It's called "GoldenRide - all girls boarding magazine" and includes surf, skate, snowboard and the style being connected to it. Apart from snowboard, I more or less practice these sports (as "much" as I can/cannot), but snowboarding is about to follow, that's just a matter of time ;-)
I really like the way of dressing that is mostly connected with these sports, and brands like Roxy, Rip Curl, Vans, O'Neill, Volcom, Etnies, Element etc are like paradise for me - an expensive one.
That is actually the reason for why I still haven't bought all of their clothes.
But back to the magazine: This month's issue was mainly about snowboarding, as the temperatures are decreasing rapidly. First, I was kind of disappointed about that (snowboard-thing), but then I decided to just keep on reading everything because, who knows, next year I might already be looking out for everything that has to do with snowboarding and just can't let go of it - just like surfing.
I don't know why, but any kinds of board sports totally fascinate me.
The issue also covers articles about a big skate event in Prague and one in Basel, and about Joy Monahan, a longboard surfer who made it to the top without the support of sponsors - which I thought was rather impossible.
The part I liked most about this issue is the parts showing the clothes. Unfortunately I don't have the money to afford them...

Here are my favorites:


Vans Slip-Ons. I really like the colours on the black background. In the magazine, they put them together with brown clothes which I think looks very good.



"Jameson" by Etnies. Love them. It's a shame that in my town almost nobody sells Etnies shoes, and when they're sold, it's boys shoes.


Vans again ("No Skool 2 Mid"). I actually saw them in a store in the centre, but I just don't have the money to buy any pair of shoes right now.





"Data" by DC. It's a snow jacket. As a snowboarder, I guess this one would be part of my "snow-jacket-faves-list"

The things you see here are mainly shoes, because I just couldn't find the hoodies, jackets a.s.o. in the internet to show it to you. Maybe I'll connect the scanner to my computer some day to make this happen...I'm kinda tired of typing in clothes name into Google =)
