Skating Happy Valley‚ OR From giant‚ steep‚ and scenic hills to going fast down any steep slope within the valley. The sensations from going fast down a hill with only you and your board is an indescribable feeling. To some it may seem as little as a hobby or something to do to pass the time.

The second reason is that I enjoy to go outside in the winter‚ but I don’t like to breath in all the smog. I have reason to believe that pollution is one of the top reasons for the health problems in Salt Lake Valley. The
