    Poetry in motion. People who wonder what's so special about snowboarding need to watch this.

    Worked great on about 6"-8" of average snow starts to struggle a bit past 8". ruclips.net/user/postUgkxoHYZbq5g9fkcAtinlTqstNlje-UQkCHN Very light weight and the chute spin control works well. For the low price you get a ton of value. My only complaint is managing the cord as it does take a fair bit of effort to watch and pull the cord out of the way. I found myself having to whip the cord out of the way a lot when I needed to make one way passes to mange the blow direction. It's less of an issue when you can work both directions. A battery powered version would be a lot easier to handle but that is also double the price and requires battery care. I chose the corded version so I didn't have to worry about batteries but I do now see how much work the cord is. I let my neighbor borrow it and it outperformed his smaller gas blower, he was totally sold. Very pleased with the power and operations.My only suggestion is to spend a bit more on a cordless version if you have budget for it. The cord is a bit more of a headache than I thought it would be. Very pleased with the Snow Joe brand and quality.

    "i just want to ride - any tips?" Yup, every run just try playing around with a couple butters. You'll figure you what flows good and what doesn't. Start em all off at slow speeds and then slowly do em while going faster and faster. Good luck!

    Howzit Ryan! Wanted to thank you for your videos. They really are a motivational kick! Also, just wanted to let you know that your channel has inspired a number of my mates to look into a deeper and in essence much more fun approach to snowboarding - from buttering on flat to carving and mastering switch. I'm a snowboarding instructor and with the help of your videos love to show those "wise guys" who think there nothing more to learn that in fact there is tons more to master! THANKS!

    • @RyanKnapton
      @RyanKnapton  9 лет назад +7

      somewhat... it's just a different weight distribution between super flexy and super stiff. flexier can make learning em easier I guess though cuz you can do them at lower speeds and it doesn't take as much force.. but at higher speeds, stiffer can actually feel better.

    I have the same board (2011 custom X) but never have quite done it justice like you sir. 7/10 board stiffness, 10/10 boarding. Best way i can describe that board is like using a Wustof knife through butter. That board carves so well, sticks to snow like spiderman to walls.
