Hi Talon, thanks. As I mentioned before, I haven’t been much of a skier, however I really enjoy watching you and your friends carve it up! It’s a shame, since we’ve lived in Boise, ID for the past 25 years and there’s a ski resort and lifts about 20 minutes from my house. The only times I’ve been up has been when the kids were in school and I joined them. I think I’ve found my new winter sport! I’m going to get outfitted and give it a shot next year.
Thanks Talon and Dave. I'm sure this is going to be a very helpful video for anyone new to skiboarding.
For any beginner skiers struggling with the transition to parallel skiing I can recommend spending a day on skiboards/snowblades. It will help you through the process - get back on your normal carving skis the next day and you'll see an immediate progression.
Dude I've been ski boarding for twenty years, glad to see others enjoying and understanding it, it has a worse image than snowboarding! It's way more fun than long skis!
Well done, gents. A very thorough explanation of the basics. I've never seen the technique for skating on skiboards so well explained (or at all). My youngest wants to learn, so I'll definitely be showing her this!
This is gonna be my new go to for everyone I take ski boarding for the first time! Thanks for taking time out of what looked like a GORGEOUS day to make this... and Dave doing the pizza was pretty hilarious! 😆
Thanks for a great video. My daughter will be going skiing for the 1st time ever in a few months time and I have bought her some skiboards, and this video does a great job of explaining the progression through techniques. We should have her carving in no time!
Thank you for all the vids about skiboards. You've inspired me to buy my first set Revolt boards. Cant wait to try them out this season!
Definitely some good info. Thanks for taking the time to make this video 🤙🏼
I skied and snowbaorded Vail and Beaver Creek for 26 years and never got tired of it. Keystone was just an awsome bonus on our lift pass in the last few years of living there.
Great tips for the beginners among us! Staggering your feet while carving is one of the main reasons we usually like boots with a lot of flex.
Great video, I've always been curious about those boards. Thanks for taking the time.
Thanks to this Vid I really progressed fast. I'm an advanced snowboarder for around 15 years, and transitioned to skiing and purchased Skiboards as my first skis having never been on skis before. Last season I had a gang of average Skiers tell me what I'm doing wrong I said these are not your standard Skis. Now I'm ripping hard because of the slide to carve explanation in this vid. Just Went over to standard all-mountain skis this November 2021 and shut all those average Skiers up. They have nothing to say this year.
I’m new to the sport and love the vids! Thanks for all the tips and advice!

Thank you so much! I love my Summit skiboards but I have been "slarving" for years. I had no idea how to carve properly on skiboards until watching this video. I can't wait to try this technique on the mountain.
Glad it helped!
Ripping up here in Alaska on snowblades, Hagan "off limits" skiboards and shorty Sir Francis Bacons, I ski stuff up here that some folks have a hard time believing. I like the challenge of the smaller sweet spot and really centering my weight and balance. I modified my Merrel Flash boot to accommodate the bail bindings for late spring/summer riding for minimal weight and fast laps, rip 'n snort!
For someone who’s never skiboarded. This was great man!
Thanks bruh 🤘🏼
Thank you sir for making this video very helpful and educational.
Just got a pair of the Stuff & Things Revolts, can't wait for next season
Buddy I love the video I can’t wait to try out those boards being a skier and a knuckle dragger for years it definitely looks like a fantastic sport to get them to watch the other videos and see if you answer the one question I had. I see you’re going through Michigan it’s too bad you didn’t stop by Alpena I hope you’re able to visit a lot of the sites up north like I said if you ever go through Alpena Michigan drop me a note you got a place to park the van right in town I have got a huge driveway ok 👌🏼🔥🤠🔥Camping Russ out
I just recently attempted snowboarding for the first time and so far it’s enjoyable. I really wanted to try ski boarding but when I went to purchase the equipment I can’t find the bindings anywhere. The boards are in stock but not the bindings unfortunately.
this was perfect thanks! Been skiing for a few seasons and just want something to play with while the wife/kiddo are with me.
This helps. I can slarve and now will work on the carve.
Perfekt 👍 👍. Hope i could try it on original RVL8 Boards next year. Not easy to get them to Germany 😓😓
Thanks Talon, Dave, Kirk and crew - - I'm starving for some slarving!! Good info even for a 72 yr old skiboarder since 1996!! Now for the snowboarders like Kenny Carter (post below), we need to hook em with Snowboard boots and bindings --#1 so they can do both on the same day in their snowboard boots #2 with the idea that skiboarders have their legs free and don't take time mess with bindings all day #3 most of us don't use poles and can move around better than snowboarders - - I believe we have a better target market with both expert and former snowboarders than most skiers. Non-release only for me. Lighter boots, the older I get. RVL8 -- i hand out more cards to snowboarders than skiers at Baldy and Mountain High in SoCal.
what is up with lines thru my comment??
I was wondering the same thing 😆
I have been Ski harding's nice 96 or 97. Switched from skis (straight before parabolic skis). Easier on the knees. Wachusett had a half pipe when I started, boarders didn't mind me in the pipe. Still have my first pair...wife uses them. I use 2011 Snow Jam 90 with non release metal bindings. Looking to getting a new pair
very good tips.... great video ... thank you very much
Awesome video dude! Skiing wasn’t for me when I was young so I’ve always snowboarded, but maybe I’ll give skiboards a try next season.
Do it!
Awesome video! Can you make a tutorial on how to start doing tricks/jumps/rails?
It's a really good video. Thank you so much!!!⛷
Good stuff guys!
Great video for all the new people. Good job guys! I'll put this should go on the skiboard connection page.
Thanks for the info dude!
Very nice video 👍
Hi Talon. Just had a quick question for u. I played hockey my entire life and skied successfully a few times. Do you think I would pick up Ski Boarding reasonable well and quickly? I am going to rewatch all of your vids on the sport - looks like such a blast. Thx from Ontario, Canada. Safe travels - love the content. Thx Talon.
Thanks guys! 🤟🏻
Well done!
Solid Instruction.
so i grew up aggressive rollerblading. skatepark and street skating. i feel like these short skiboards would be the closest thing to that. and i feel like all the carving and stopping would carry over
hello mate, thanks for all info. 2 days ago i start skating with that skiboard equipment. I was use to slide on rollerskate it feels pretty same. Here is my problem, even my 2-3-4 turn i didnt even fell on my first date. But i choose more angled area to skate. Wow, the nightmare appears, it goes faster quickly and i couldn't stop. Too much fail and tired as hell.
Any recommendations to slide slowly on high angles ?
I love mine skiboards, no plans to go back to long skis.
Im very interested in this. As a dude with very flexible knees (easily twists and/or bends sideways, which is bad), this looks like it would put a LOT less torque on my knees. I’ve quit skiing because of it. Is my guess correct, about the twist/torque in the knees?
If your chasing the snow , head up across the mighty Mack to mount Bohemia .. Not to shabby !!🔥
I am a beginner. Can these skiboards be easier for me to advance to the intermediate?
Thanks for your kind video.
For beginners, what size skiboard length would you recommend? 99cm? 106cm? etc etc
Yo, Talon!
Do you have a link for that "jacket" or hoodie you're wearing? Been looking for some new gear and that hoodie looks dope!
Any place in Utah where I can rent skiboards to try before I buy?
🙋♀️ question, I’m an occasional skier that goes skiing once a year a couple times each winter season. I’ve been skiing since I was young and my skills are pretty good (I can go on any slope straight down without falling lol). I’ve skateboarded also for a number of years. I’m wondering whether skiboards would be right me. Would I able to ski normally and also maybe have a bit of fun as well, or would a different of ski be better for me
If you can ski, you can skiboard 👍🏻
Danke! super!
I loved Keystone when I was skiing and hated it when I wanted ride my board there at Night. Do they allow snowboards now?
They sure do
Just saw you and the rig on 23 n headed into Ann Arbor ! Good channel bro ham , Huron River real nice right now on yaks !! Hit me up I have plenty of boats 👍🏻
Hi Talon, hit Dak up! This is one of those once in a lifetime things that your situation offers up! Take advantage of it!!
What's easier to learn first? Sking, ski boarding or snowboarding?
Snowblades or skiboards is definitely the easiest.
I took my 70 year old mother skiing this week and she managed to ride snowblades. Salomon 99cm model. I had buy ski poles to help her with balance. But ski poles are not needed once you get the feeling of the ride.
It was her very first time on moderate level lift. I think skiboards are even easier because of more width.
I’m wondering if it’s easier for those who know how to rollerblading.
i wish i had skiboards when i was skiing looks like way more fun than the traditional ski`s
Feels weird when Dave is talking all serious.... hahaha
Are these one size fits all or is there a correct way to size these based off height, weight?
Where can you buy ski boards in store? I've only ever seen them sold online.
Are ski boards easier, or harder than skiing?
I love to ski, but hate the ski boots- so I'm considering getting a soft boot, and they seem easier than regular skis because you don't have the length.
All of those answers can be found I’m at the links in the description 👍🏻
Hey Talon, just watched your history of Skiboards video too and I am having a hard time finding anywhere to get Skiboards that aren't sold out. I'm in the denver area, any tips on where/when to look?
For new boards you will have to wait until next season releases. They all sell out fast so I would recommend pre-ordering around october when they release.
@@TalonSei Awesome thanks, I will keep my eye out then and hopefully get a pair!
Okay, I know this is an old video but I haven't been able to get the answer anywhere else so I have to ask. Why are skiboard/blade bindings different from just a regular ski binding?
IE why can't I just buy a pair of children skis with standard bindings and use those as ski blades?
Thanks in advance! :p
Nice !
I was gonna get a set this year but im a big dude with big legs and skiboots are the toughest thing to find I know you guys aren’t personally fans of the softbboot bindings but do you know anyone that is and what their thoughts are on it
APEX or DAHU have you covered mate and being a bid dude, go for slightly stiffer, particularly with APEX and you will be fine with the softboot or snowboard setup...but definitely get release bindings.
If one is good on regular downhill skis would this be kinda similar?
Yes
I don't know if you will still answer, but I am brand new to seeing ski boards and I was wondering if you use just normal ski boots?
Yes normal ski boots work best.
@@TalonSei thanks
I've been snowboarding for 15 years, I am 28. How hard would it be to transition to skiboards?
Not hard at all
Talon - I was inspired by your many videos and just bought my first skiboards. When carving are you able to weight your skiboards more evenly than longer skis where most will say to heavily weight the downhill ski?
With regular skis, one wants to move from ski to ski while directing pressure to the outside ski (that would be the downhill ski at the end of the turn). I find that this same technique also works well with my skiboards. Tilting uphill puts your weight on the uphill ski at the end of the turn. In skiing, one wants to have one's weight on the downhill ski at the end of the turn. This is accomplished by forming an angle with your body. Think that your shoulders want to be level with the slope. We call that angulation. This creates a higher edge angle between the skis and the snow which facilitate better carving.
Hi
Which boot should I get hard boot or soft one thank you
Hard. A regular ski boot works best.
@@TalonSei where to buy it
is it easier for someone who already knows how to ski or is it a completely different feel?
If you can ski, you'll have a blast on skiboard, v
But you dont need to know how to ski to start
You can slide with skiboards EXACTLY as you would do with skis. I try to get the same feeling with both. I use the skiboards to tune my bump skiing technique and then translate the motion to skis. The skiboards help me to maintain a more balanced stance (i.e., not being in the back seat), and rotate my legs to rotate my skis without much rotation of my upper body. Most of skiing is within your head. The skiboards allow me to dive into my turns with more confidence.
What were you using for a microphone?
I used my main camera setup for this. Links in the description.
Hey talon, this video isn’t showing up on your recent uploads for you channel. I never got a notification about it.
This video was never published. I might make it public next week so you will see it again then 👍🏻
Where do I get the boots? Thanx!
Any ski boots will work with the bindings shown in this video.
Remember, if you don't listen to these tips, you're gonna have a bad time...
I was taught the Christmas tree or wedge turn. Same concept.
this is the exact same board and binding I use lol.
Hi ! I have heard from people around me that skiboard are riskier than skis because they don't allow your foot to get out of the device properly if you fall. Is it true or total bullcrap ?
With no release bindings yet, but you can get risers and mount traditional release bindings if you want.
@@TalonSei Do you always use those kind of device on that video? If yes, why ?
@@TalonSei The skiboards that I bought from Summit have release bindings that are mounted directly on the boards, not on risers.
That’s not in good practice by summit.
@@TalonSei What do you see as the problem with having the bindings mounted directly to the skiboards?
Almost like skiing. Easier for really short person coz the traditional ski is super heavy
🔥🔥👍👍🔥🔥
How to fall?
Fascinating and no alcohol was used in this production. Only food like pizza and French fries
Where i can buy skiboard
At the links in the description
@@TalonSei thanks
5:47 too soon
All these techniques remind me a lot of ice skating, which I’ve been doing all my life.
I like this tutorial but the noice of the snow make my damn skin crawl
Re name: How to carve on a vertical ice rink hahaha
It's pretty easy to skate on full length skis if your technique doesn't suck. But getting that technique is probably easier said than done for most people. As a former cross country skier who was great at skate skiing, seeing most people try to skate on skis is cringy AF.
"french fries" in every american video or movie there is alwasy at least one french/france sentence :D this is funny because french people don't like americans :D but ok....
What a joke
What are your thoughts on the k2 fattys
