Riding rails 10 meters away from the sea while there is +13 degrees outside is not what happens every day. But it did happen this saturday in Rijeka on the Gillette Carnival snowboard session. I can't find words to explain how much fun I had riding in these conditions and I am sure that everybody participating would say the same about this awesome day. The session was really long, like two qualification runs, each 45 minutes and than the finals also 45 minutes. So it was really like hiking a rail on the local resort, having fun, chatting with friends and not that much like riding a contest.
