Why do you do it?
Because it makes me smile thinking about it now and I'm smiling. The freedom of the sport, the places it can take you, the knowledge you gain, so many different people you meet and the whole lifestyle.
Emma Rogers | Gap Who/what inspired you to start?
I had been skiing since I was 5yrs old and remember one family holiday seeing someone on a snowboard and thought that looks different I want to give that a go. So with my hard boots, one piece and sunnies I was ready for my lesson, an hour later and I was ready to get back on my ski's. 10yrs later I decided to give it a second chance and have never looked back.

Emma on guitarrrr What was your favourite trip and why?
There's been lots of fun little trips, but the one that stands out would be the one to Saint Lary about 4yrs ago with Kathy and Gilly. The longest drive, stopped by the police, nearly loosing Kathy, stuck on a lift for 30min's, the worst weather possible, having to wear leopard print Lycra boxer shorts to a spar for photos (don't asked) but all that aside I have never laughed so much.

To try and do it as much as possible and hope it still keeps me smiling.
