Fave read of the month: Snowboarder Mag’s girly feature
Finally. Snowboarder Magazine’s “We Should Be Sluts,” an interview with Marie-France Roy and Annie Boulanger, is the profile on female snowboarders I’ve been waiting for.
The two friends talk like a lot of girls I know: about liking pink, being scared and thinking boys were “so hot” when they first got into snowboarding and not wanting to slow boys down – almost like the over-the-stall conversations I’ve had in the tiny Whiskey Creek bathroom early season nights in Mammoth – but better, because Marie and Annie are better snowboarders, ride in Whistler, and are better snowboarders – I know, I already said that. It was worth repeating.
“We Should Be Sluts” is in the January 2010 Superpark issue.

Dana, I love the way you write. You hit the nail on the head with style. I am a weekend warrior at Mammoth and a journalist as well. Thanks for the inspiration!
With all the doggone snow we have had recently I am stuck inside , fortunately there is the internet, thanks for giving me something to do.
