Snowboarding as a lens on everyday life

Nick Appl uses the contrasts of snowboarding—its unpredictability and rough patches alongside its high points—as a framework for considering everyday discoveries, emotions, values, and lessons. The book gathers 100 reflections around the connection between riding and ideas about happiness, making the sport more than a subject in itself: it becomes a way to think about how people meet life’s changing conditions.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Snowboarders interested in reflecting on what riding can teach beyond the sport.
  • People curious about short reflections linking an outdoor activity with everyday life.
  • Those exploring different perspectives on happiness and personal values.

Book overview

What can snowboarding teach us about life? A lot, actually. Life can be unpredictable, bumpy and harsh. Same goes for snowboarding, but it also has the potential for experiencing the highest of highs. In this small but elegantly stated volume, author and rider Nick Appl explores snowboarding as an analogy for all the discoveries, emotions, values and lessons that everyday life can offer. As anyone who rides a snowboard - or yearns to learn - can attest, the act is perfectly suited to teach us about what happiness means and how to find more of it.
