    This is an excellent presentation. Stable camera, clear instruction and a little humor. If you don't have anything better to add, then keep the negative comments to yourself...as that is probably the only person that will listen.

    these are very good tutorials! I mean, these are probably stuff I would learn from experience, but it's good to actually have someone to tell me these things. It makes me better at snowboarding a lot quicker. Thank you!

    You two are amazing, thanks for taking the time to make these videos. I'm currently learning how to snowboard and believe me it can be FRUSTRATING. Keep practicing what is shown to you by your teachers and by videos like this and it will click. It gets better! Don't give up, you can do it:)!

    I was having real problems to make the toe turn. After watching this video I practice your advises and everything work out just fine. The series of videos for snowboard beginners really help me out. For being the second time practicing this sport I felt much more confident. Thanx!

    I really like the teaching school you give to the listener. All comparisons to day-to-day activities, this is the way instructors should be teaching to ride. Though I ride for couple of sessions now I see the basic mistakes I make and why I couldn't get rid of them. Tomorrow I am taking my next ride, surely will apply your suggestions and try different things:) Many thanks for great vids. Good job Guys. Cheers

    VERY GOOD! I like the explanation of the mechanics of the turns I have taught people to ski and use similar descriptions of posture knee positions balance stance.If i would have learned on my own I would have been throwing arms etc! I just ordered my snowboard and boots, Flow merc 163 wide. im 5' 9" 255lbs. size 10 boot. Not the best board but should work. been watching your videos and will let you know how it goes. I'm looking forward to learning to shred on a board in 2013!.

    @TheLuxar333 11 лет назад

    A TIP THAT CAN HELP VERY MUCH:
    I've watched all the steps from 1 to 9 many times but practice it of course much different from theory and I'd like to give a tip that completely fixed my problem: I couldn't properly turn untill I made ENOUGH PRESSURE on THE FRONT KNEE (front leg). This is essence and secret of turning. Even too strong pressure.
    Good luck.

  • @thingermahjig
    @thingermahjig 12 лет назад

    ape arms? using your shoulders actually helps. it forces you to move your hips in the right direction. it's the same concept when buttering into pretzels, turning the shoulders in the correct direction will force the board and your hips around much faster. one way to control the arms and force your hips in the right direction, keep ur arms at your side like terminator and try to point in the direction u want to go. the only way to turn ur body to aim would be to twist ur hips in the right way :O

  • @andig4
    @andig4 11 лет назад

    Now i know why i kept falling when turning... ! was leaning back to much and 2 applied both toes/heels when turning at the same time... So you have to use your front toe/heel first and then back leg to finish off the turn (once your board points down the hill :P haha thanks guys.

    So crazy because surfing everything starts with your arms and shoulders and your lower body follows. Also you really lean on that backfoot to crank a sharp turn

    @soul06
    This isn't a really long way to learn. And breaking it down to the mechanics makes a lot easier to focus. If you don't fall down while walking, you don't really need to work on balance. Plus the common problems they go over here are REALLY common. Just watch the next time you are going up the lifts!

  • @HardwareAddiction
    @HardwareAddiction 9 лет назад

    I always catch an edge when I try to traverse from heel to toe. Toe-side feels weird, but stopping with this side seems kinda easy, however, if your bindings are not set up properly, you'll notice right away because the amount of pressure you'll have to use in order to stop will be immense. You learn shit load on the first vacation.. you are not having fun yet, but it's a phase you can't skip. Doesn't matter if you get a guide or not.
