Fashionable Snowboarding with BRM
Snowboarding, though developed in the U.S. in the late 60's and early 70', didn't become an Olympic sport until 1998. Extremely beneficial to one's health, snowboarding tones all of the muscles in the body and provides a great cardiovascular workout.
Always on top of the latest in fashion and technology, owners Ward and Maureen have stocked the shop with this season's hippest gear.
For women, the one-piece suit is back. These modern suits are nothing like the versions we are familiar with from the 1980s. The Roxy suit carried by Urban is made of a snazzy iridescent fabric complete with a faux fur-trimmed hood and a wide, low slung belt. Though Urban is carrying a limited number of these this year, the word on the street is that this style will be wildly popular by next year.
Check out some of this winter's trendiest men's and women's snowboarding gear in the Trend section of this month's Buffalo Rising Magazine. Our feature on great winter sports is chock full of photos and interesting articles.

To keep the gallery in good financial health, it is necessary to increase the price of a regular adult admission ticket from $10 up to $12. The new price will go into effect on January 1st 2009.
The director of the gallery, Louis Grachos, has said that due to higher costs in all areas of the gall …
French satire from the 1600's feels like falling asleep in high school english class. But classic French satire with a rock and roll band? That sounds better. We can thank Andy Liegl for this bold modernity on December 26th when his production of Such Foolish Affected Ladies opens at the Alt Theatre. The original play calls for violinists but this role has been liberally opened up to local band The Nepenthe. "I wanted an indie rock sound, something that my generation can click wit …
It’s funny how history seems to repeat itself. Florence Foster Jenkins was in the elite member of society, but terribly eccentric and utterly convinced that she was a great coloratura soprano – despite the fact that she couldn’t carry a tune for even a few notes. She even managed to hold a sold out concert, even though she couldn’t sing! Sound familiar? Remember William Hung?
Jenkins’ story happened over 50 years ago. She would hold annual recitals in the Ritz Carlton h …
What could be more perfect to spread the news about local artists at the Buffalo Indie Market than a literary magazine that features works from local artists? NOMAD is a new magazine set to debut in January 2009 that will feature writers, poets, photographers, artists, and designers from the area. Erica Eichelkraut, a freelance photographer, created NOMAD and is bringing it to the public. Since Eichelkraut is a part of the Buffalo Indie Market, it wasn’t long before a collaborat …

The girl is beautiful but the snowboarding outfit-not so much. I am sure its all the rage but i hope it's just a passing fad. Although I doubt all ever see any with this lack of snow.
