hey guys. be extremely careful. It is a really cool thing. and it works. but so easy to get hurt. my arm got into a bit of loose snow and was held back a slight second. perfect angle for a dislocated shoulder. end of season. make sure the snow is flat and hard. still. great video!
I hurt my ankle doing this movement. If the snow is not flat, it's really easy to get the board starting to shake a lot and you get all the pressure on the ankles. That said, i was not putting a lot of weight on my arms, mostly foot and centrifugal force. Happened 2 weeks ago and still feel it in my ankles...
💯 I had a pretty bad shoulder dislocation when I hit a bit of hard snow and lost my toe side edge on a euro carve. Awesome fun trick, but now I Euro carve with my arm in. I think it looks pretty good, but more protected, (cause I really fucking sucked to lever my shoulder out of socket with your arm trapped overhead..)
If you did this toe side... Def don't try heel side.
Tysm for your tip
@@martykasa7864heelside euros aren’t for the faint of heart but they’re definitely possible and badass
i keep looking at your dog !
I really like that you don't try to show off inbetween clips with irrelevant content and tricks. Keep it up!
Pupper stole the start of this video!
Yes he did!
Your videos are exactly what I need. I have been trying to extend my regular carve to eurocarve but could not. I love how you can break it down, simply, so people can understand. You my man, are a great teacher! Thanks for your content and keep it coming!
Cheers Scott, I will definitely be back next year with loads of tutorials but unfortunately I'm on lockdown right now, with even splitboarding strictly forbidden!
@@malcolmmoore Our resorts are down on Mt Hood, Oregon but I am going to "Drift Board" up and get some freshies!
I second this. Are binding angles a factor? I ride +21 -9
Thank you. Very clear explanation between 2 types of carving. Definitely save me from from further pushing my hip to evolve my carving the wrong way.
The best video about learning carving.
You are the best!
It’s cool to see that pup loving it too
Those are really good quality explanations! Going through your videos and they are really consistent! Thanks for the great content.
Thanks Arnaldo!
Bro you're the best teacher ever. Also so humble, I appreciate that. Keep going, we are thankful!
Thanks, I appreciate it 🙏
You are my sunshine!!!
So much style and so much good lessons!!
My prof!!!!
Thanks
Thanks Marco, i assume this is you, I've just replied to your email!
Thanks, Malcolm. not quite there yet but now I have the info who knows!! I also enjoyed watching your dog doing his own version of the euro slide behind you!!!! NICE!!!!!!
😂😂😂 love the dog euro carve!
Very clear explanation, I will try this tomorrow. Thanks for this great content.
Nice, where are you able to snowboard? I'm on quarantine here in France and even split boarding is strictly forbidden!
@@malcolmmoore Sorry to hear that. I snowboarding in Japan Hakuba area. Today I might use too much power to rubbing on the snow by back hand, that cause my board over rotation to up hill. I review this video and find there is no heavy track leaving behind when you do that. I will keep improve it in tomorrow. ^_^
Nice explenation!! Those carvs lookes and feels amazing🤙🤙
Cheers! they are super fun!
great video! you are one of my favorite youtubers
Awesome, thanks man! I'll be back in December with loads more vids all winter!
@Malcolm Moore, thank you SO much for this video (in fact, for all of your videos!). I've always wanted to try a Eurocarve, but they seemed far too intimidating. Your break-down helps me feel hopeful that I can get this down this season!!
Thanks Anna! Hope it helped!
Never seen a tutorial on this move. Doesn’t seem as hard when you break it down. Maybe I’ll give it a go. Loving the dog-slide
😂 dog slide can't be taught!
Check out Ryan Knepton channel, he makes incredible turns, and he's God in carving^_^
@@user-ck3yj6bj7l he is the boss!
Awesome video again!!! Really like how it's explained step by step the process and the tips too. Seems not so complicated btw.
really love your contents！keep it up！
Thanks!
Great video. This also destroys gear....but is so much fun❤ I also love carving In style
Awesome. Will try on holiday in two weeks time!
Have fun!
i trained this all week and it was so fun, ty for the instruktion, realy made my trip that much more fun! :D
Great job!
I need to try this!
Give it a go!
The dog in the back just living its best life 😂
Haha yeah Indy loves the snow
Thanks!
Thankyou!
You’re a god! Great videos, thanks!
Thanks ☺️✌️
Thanks im gonna impres my friends with this
Haha enjoy!!
Hey Malcolm,
How often do you tune your board?
Now the bs, with the whole arm extended... That is savage 😉
Last season I broke my ankle euro carving. It was late in the season and the snow was slushy. Conditions are extremely important when euro carving.
Came for the lesson, stayed for the dog:) Really, great tutorial, can't wait to try it out.. I will surely fail and hate snowboarding after but it is what it is:)
Haha good luck!
Been waiting for this one! Going to try it next time i'm on snow!
So much fun!
Suitcase grab? Thanks for the vid. Very helpful
Thanks, I think it was a chicken salad though!
Dude got my elbow down today on purpose!!!! 1st time…it’s fun but I didn’t realize how much speed it scrubs …. 🤙
Nice resort too!
Where is it?
Exactly why I ride a alpine snowboard with hardboots
I get low in on my toeside but indy has it on point!🤙
😁🐕
What are your stance angles? Also would be interesting to see how positive angles on both bindings help to euro carve since a movement you described is opening up the shoulders.
I have +18 -12 as my angles. A more positive set up can help with these kind of carves but limits other areas of your riding. Watch some of the Korua 'yearning for turning' videos to see how they ride with positive angles.
@@malcolmmoore woot my angles exactly!
I do Eurocarve both ways. Your video lessons will certainly be very helpful for intermediates, but I encourage beginners to use the services of a trainer, because while the technique is quite easy, feeling the moment of edge change is quite troublesome. I admire you that you want to share your skills with snowboarding people, it will definitely contribute to improving the style of snowboarding on the slopes. Regards :)
Cool clip, thanks! Would you please talk about binding set up as well as the size of your board. I saw on other videos people recommended larger and stiffer boards?
I have a ride Warpig which is a volume shifted board so I only ride a 154 but it has a wider waist width. As long as you don't get a super soft board, even a medium one can carve well. Longer stiffer boards will carve well but so can a softer one, stiffer ones are less playful too. Mostly it will just come down to your technique, alot of people giving out advice aren't necessarily the best riders. Bindings, I have union contact pros, I have them at +18 -12 So it's slightly directional but I can still ride switch.
Malcolm Moore thank you so much. I watched videos of Ryan Knapton, he is a master of that technique, probably one of the best out there too. I appreciated your response, and I subscribed to your channel. I’m an advanced and experienced surfer so I really want to get into those carvings as it looks like bottom turning in a a powerful and perfect wave. Cheers mate!
I have a toe hang and heel hang of 21.55mm, can I still do this with that much hang?
Very Nice!!!! Could you please do a tutorial with the "EuroCarve" on the heel side ? .. I think it's much more difficult to do it on Heel edge...
They definitely are alot harder! I have a bad left shoulder therefore I can only do them switch, but I'll try and make that video soon!
@@malcolmmoore lol Me too,, had broken my shoulder in the Park T_T... BTW, can't wait to see that new Video => !!!!
Spectacular.... thanks. Mind if I ask your binding angles?
I'm starting to find it easier to "throw-point a knee", with double positive....but 33 years of duck stance is hard to undo. Lol
I pretty much exclusively ride +18-12 now ✌️
Hi Malcolm! Love your videos on eurocarves!!! Just curious what board do you ride to carve? I'm on a Lib Tech Orca and a Ride A-4 binding.
I've got a few boards in the go, amplid dada, nidecker thruster 162w, and nidecker escape 162XW are my main go to boards right now though. I either have now pilot bindings, or nidecker Supermatics on for when I'm teaching.
@@malcolmmoore Thank you for your response Malcolm! I just started to learn a little bit eurocarve myself and your video is definitely a great help! : ) Awesome content created by an awesome rider : )
First called the InFamous "Vitelli turn" !!!
So funny, the dog behind him. He seems so happy..
He is 🐕
what kind of slope is ideal for learning this on, a mellow blue run?
Exactly, if you take more speed it can work on greens, and when you get good at them there's nothing stopping you doing them on reds and blacks, but the best place to learn is a nice wide mellow blue!
Ryan Knapton - the king
Hey Malcolm, been working on this and trying to get low but the board keeps skidding out on me when I try to lean into the slope. Are these achievable on mellow terrain or do you always need a bit of speed to hold the edge? I think I may need to work on my toe side carves a bit and figure out how to really dig in and increase the lean angle. Any pointers would be appreciated. Thanks.
you need a wider board. Your boots toe are hitting the snow early
I'm still early in my snowbboarding journey, but from what I understand this could be either of two main things: 1) your boots are simply overhanging too much at deep leans, and you need a wider board, more positive binding angles, or to lean into your heels more (Malcom covers this in this video), or 2) you're trying to lean too deep too early in your turn, where your current velocity isn't quite in the direction of your board (and your acceleration isn't fully perpendicular to your board's sidecut apex, technically). If you wait to lean deep until you're fully travelling along the edge of the board, then there's no reason to judder until your edge loses its hold due to terrain or something. Not having enough speed along the *correct* vector would probably only make you lay yourself down onto the slope - not judder the board.
Or maybe I'm totally off base . Who knows?
Your front hand grabbing the heel side between your legs is a "Grossman" grab, I believe named for the late Jeff Grosso. It's sometimes misnamed as a "Chicken Salad" or "Roast Beef" grab but those are both backhand grabs.
Another vid I saw referred to that grab between the legs as a "chicken salad"
Yeah that's the grab!
In skateboarding it’s called a roast beef. Different type of meat lol
@@converse48 that’s when you grab with your back hand. It’s called a chicken salad in skating as well when you use your front hand
Love the video, great tips!...the grab between the legs is called "chicken salad" ;)
Haha correct!!!
Carving track has some toe drag, time to step it up to a wider board :)
Yep, unless I start getting a custom built board this one will have to do, The Ride Warpig is actually pretty wide though!
@@malcolmmoore you would have a blast on one of the ultra wide customs. The downside is once you get used to them you won't want to ride anything else.
@@mikeoclimberMTB Yeah I bet, it's crazy how limited you are to even find a board with a waist width of over 26.5. At least recently there's been a trend for wider boards with things like the Warpig, the K2 enjoyer series etc. But some boards that are considered wide are only 26cm across the waist!
What's the name of this song?? I love your music! Also how much forward lean do you usually use on your bindings?
Sorry for the delay in response! The song is called scouting by eveningland. I have my forward lean set to their middle setting on the bindings. If you use your ankles effectively you don't need to rely completely on forward lean!
@@malcolmmoore Hi Malcom, could you explain what you mean by using your ankle in this context? Love your videos.
@@stefanofiorani1408 thanks, so alot of people rely on using forward lean on their bindings so that when you lean your calf muscle against them you get immediate lift in your toe edge. However if you flex your foot, imagine pulling the top of your foot in towards your shin, you can achieve the same effect. This makes it less of an off or on button, but something which you can control exactly how much edge lift you are getting. Some people even ride without high backs at all and just rely on effectively using their feet and ankles. Switchback, and NOW bindings have the option to remove the highback, and it is something pro rider Haldor Helgason often does.
@@malcolmmoore goddam, thanks a lot and have a nice day!
Super awesome curve there.
Whats your US footsize (or in cm) and the waist width of your snowboard?
I'm on the Ride Warpig 154. Waist width is 27cm I think. US 11.5 boots!
@@malcolmmoore
Thanks for the reply!
Do you find more struggle when you try eurocarve in steeper hill ?
@@user-vn9js9yn1j Q1 yes I'm sure! EU 46 I Think...
Q2. Burton Imperial, burton boots have a good 'reduced footprint' meaning they are smaller than another boot of the same size.
Q3 for normal riding yes your board is on more of an edge on steeper slopes but for Eurocarving it is the same as your board is pretty much at maximum edge angle regardless of whether you do it on a green or a black slope!
@@malcolmmoore really appreciated for the reply man.
Yeah, I found out that burton generally makes boots smaller than other brands, dont they?
I fit perfectly with US13 in thirty two, while it hurts as hell with US 13 in Burtons.
Just one last question, what binding angles do you use? Thanks in advance.
@@user-vn9js9yn1j I've been on burton boots for about 5 years now so not sure too much about how they compare size wise to other boots to be honest, I just know they work for me! Stance angle I have +18 -12. This allows me to still ride switch when I need to give but gives me a strong position when riding regular!
The Grab is called Chicken Salad (it really is) and it's really not a good idea to slide with your open Hand over the snow like you showed it. It's very easy to get stuck in a pile of snow and hurt your fingers.... Making a fist is much safer.
Besides that a very good breakdown of the technique and good explanation 👍🏼
got it
Good one! Heelside next?
I suck at heelsode ones haha, my left shoulder is actually so weak that it dislocates if I try them, so I can only them switch, and not very well!
The Eurocarve evolution is cool, it can be done both ways. Your video lessons will certainly be of great help to intermediates, however, I encourage beginners to use the services of a trainer, because while the technique is quite easy, it is quite difficult to know when to change the edge of the board. I admire you that you want to share your skills with snowboarders, it will definitely help to improve your riding style and make skiers jealous :). Regards :)
and what about heelside ?
We used to call that between the leg rail grab “roast beef” but that was skateboarding
DOOOOOOOOOGG
🐕🐕🐕🐕
Wts your binding setting when doing carving?
I have +18 and - 12. It's slightly opened up to help with carving but not so much that I can't ride switch!
If you decrease the radius of your carve as you turn to increase your momentum you’ll be able to lean in just as close to the snow without needing to put your arm on the snow toe side
Came for the doggo. Was not disappointed.
Good vidéo but can you do a vidéo how to carve backside
Sure ting!
The grab between the legs is called "chicken salad" TJ from board archive mentioned it in his advanced carves video
I can totaly see myself doing this 20 years from now if I start right now clocking 5 hours daily of snowboarding
Look up the hill before you do this!
Yep, thats my safety suggestion at the end of the video!
The dog is doing what you told him to. EUROCARVING behind you.
lol yes!
That grab is called a roast beef
view is great
but i can't see the difference between extream carving and this carving
This is Eurocarving, I've seen Ryan Knapton refer to this as extreme carving, so yes, they are the same thing!
0:28 for puppy slides 🥰
🐕🤗
Also have your dog with you to cheer you on :)
The best support!
So we going to ignore the dog sliding in the beginning lmao this is why I love dogs
😂👌
Was that grab a stalfish?
Hey James, a stalefish would be back hand on the heel edge, but outside the legs and not through them, still not sure what it's called!
@@malcolmmoore I believe it's 'chicken salad'? Really great videos.
@@wheaty64 yes, that's a chicken salad!
@@wheaty64 I think you are correct! Cheers
the names of these moves lol
Helpful and goshdarn handsome
🥰
I'm not sure if someone's mentioned it, but I think the grab between your legs on the heel-side is called a chicken salad grab 😂
There is more and more video's on Vitelli Turn/Eurocarve Turn. I have been watching all yours about carving, but you miss some details who can help for heel side turn. I'm ok with the work of the upper body (improve turn video if i'm right). On carving video you touch the right thing about pushing on legs and it's what's to be done in order to completely lay down on the snow. On the exit, I always have more a feeling of pulling my legs in order to help my board of releasing the pressure i put in my turn and be ready for the next turn. This link to early 2000's might show you another details ruclips.net/video/63GZN-aKSOU/видео.html ok it's hardboot riders. Here is one of 2020 from swiss/german and austrian's ruclips.net/video/1S2gxO0QhQY/видео.html but less extrem.
I liked the hard boot video cheers for that. I've been thinking alot about carving this summer and when I'm allowed back on the snow want to make more videos on it. I think the key is to get retraction turns, or what they call push and pull technique, to get the feeling you describe. Anyway, hopefully I'll explain it better when I get to making the video! It's something I've sometimes confused with down unweighted turns in the past, but I think maybe with the help of a clipboard I'll be able to explain the key differences now!
Exactly. This pushing against your heels/keeping the board properly angled is the part that most tutorials miss. Malcom nailed it with showing all you need to get Euros done.
You can rip your jackets arms up pretty quick eurocarving, Ryan Knapton adds vinyl to his sleeves that reduces the friction and speeds up the carve while protecting the jacket.|

Surprised i did not see you in Jan while i was in ADH, great resort, shame its losing most of the chalet and hotel accommodation at the peak of the town though...
Great carves, as mentioned be sure to look up hill before you do them though, you are blind to people coming down the hill while in the carve.
yep, I've definitely gone through a few jackets, but they usually last a season!
Hows that pig holding up? Would u recommend
I love it apart from that the topsheet delaminates super easy. Its pretty annoying. Take a look at the k2 party platter or amplid dada. Pretty similar boards but both a little bit on the softer side.
@@malcolmmoore awesome, thanks, ignore my comment asking same question from yesterday
The dogs eurocarve needs a bit of work 😂
Haha I'll tell him 😂😂
Can eurocarving only be done on steeper slopes I feel like greens and blues might not be steep enough? 🤔
Can do them on anything it just needs enough speed!
only frontside?
For this video yes
Great video! I’m impressed, your dog - not so much 😂
😂😉
What binding angles do you run?
+18 -12
@@malcolmmoore thanks dude 👍
which jacket is this?
It's an old burton one, about 3 years old now 👍
@@malcolmmoore Thank you. I guess you don't remember the name?
No sorry, I don't actually have it anymore sorry!
@@malcolmmoore its the Burton Cloudlifter in Golden Oak Distressed color if someone else is interested
The grab between the legs is a roast beef
I think that's with the back hand though, somebody said chicken salad! 🤷♂️
there's no one notice that black dog? it's so funny !
That's Indy!! My dog 😍😍
Grab under the legs. Back hand through the legs is Roast Beef . Front hand through the legs is Chicken Salad
think this one is actually called the knapton carve
Lol
And wider board is quite a bit more helpful as well..
True, or smaller feet 😂
@@malcolmmoore 41.5 here (8.5 for usa), for me ~26cm waist has been quite troublesome to get that low, I'm booting out quite early on.
This season I took Knapton twin (Thnx Ryan Knapton and Donek snowboards) with 30.5cm waist, if that does not help then I'm doing something really wrong.
warpig gang
🐽🐽
Chicken salad grab is front hand between legs
PUPPY
Why the name "eurocarve" ?
I think it was when hard boot snowboarding was big it was a bunch of Europeans doing these kind of carves first!
@@malcolmmoore The way you are riding is more like extremecarving and the technique is called push pull.
It looks as if you have a private mountain.
Yeah it's a big resort so always easy to find some space!
I’ll have to give it a try :) I mainly go to Verbier in Switzerland and Champoluc in Italy.
@@simonchurch. I love verbier, some incredible off piste terrain, never been champoluc though!
This video should be named "how to ruin your jacket".
Haha yep I've gone through a few 😂
That grab, through your legs on the heel edge with your front hand is a 'chicken salad' btw
Nice one cheers! 🐓🥗
Yeah I’m a try this, and bust my ass lol. I already know
Haha hope it helped 😄
Roastbeef ;)
