I picked up the October issue of Transworld Snowboarding this week, and the issue is chock full of write-ups and photos about one-footers. For those not in the know (like me until I picked up this issue), a 'one-footer' is when a rider does a trick, like fly off a lip, with one foot out of their binding. It was an awakening of sorts, and I felt like I've missed out on the Next Big Thing; kind of like the time I realized everyone was wearing bandanas while snowboarding.

Is this something I want to try? Not really. Astute readers of this blog know that tricks and backcountry, er, aren't really my forte. Furthermore, I'm pretty sure most of the folks like yourself who stop by aren't necessarily obsessed with pro riders and tricks.  Personally,  when I wanna get my trick fix I head over to Gavin's place.
