You can have the look of a professional snowboarder without paying the typical price for gear at the sports equipment stores.

The jacket style features two side zippered pockets, 2 front pockets and a draw string hoodie attached. Priced at $34.99 in store and on the web site: target.com.
Shaun White Snowboarding World Stage (Nintendo Wii)
I tried snowboarding last year at Big Bear and I lasted about of 30 minutes. This far more manageable and there is no travel time involved. The game works with or without the Wii Balance Board and makes you feel like youre really snowboarding! The game has a great soundtrack! It is fun for groups and parties! This is for die-hard snowboarding fans as well as the occasional Wii-kend player. Either way youll work up a sweat with this game. The bonus DVD includes never-before-seen footage of Shaun shredding his halfpipe in Silverton, Colorado that was conceived and built by Red Bull exclusively for training. Priced at $49.99 in Target stores and at target.com.
