whats that material on your elbows, also what gloves do you use

hey man looking at the mods you do on the highback, ever think of finding someone to 3D print you something to save you weight?

i wanna try snowboarding so bad. something tells me i won't be like this dude lol :)

Sick vid

The bindingless revert carve... O.O

Some sort of step in, is a must for midwest 3 & 500 vertical ft. "Resorts" Since you're in the lift line every 2 minutes ... I wish that was an exaggeration. But, also... If you want performance all good stuff has been discontinued.

50 year old dude who grew up surfing, moved inland in 2005, and never stopped long board downhill riding since 1995 and is riding through my first winter in eastern Washington on the mountain. I don't have a lot to give towards progression because I'm banged the f up (hip replacement, fused vertebrae in my neck), but I can still progress with my rail work. Much love from Spokane. And thanks for the inspiration ❤️

Frack yeah!

I know this is an old video but it was my first time boarding at my local mountain this season and I only lasted 2 hours. While I just took it easy and focused on drills, the last two runs I charged it and it felt amazing. I don't feel too bad leaving early as I have a season pass. Feels good to leave the slopes with some energy to spare

If you saw these Frankensteins on the mountain there’s no way you’re not thinking that guy is a psychopath leaving foot deep trenches

Are these "down unweighted turns"? Malcolm Moore has vids about these but you are a master

Aside from how hilarious he looks while doing this... I find it bizarre that snowboarders don't have poles at all times. I might actually start doing this, unironically. Getting stuck a single time on flat ground on a snowboard was enough for me to never want to experience that shit ever again. Walking in deep snow, with hot snow gear on, for over a mile is absolutely fucking horrendous. Yeah you can always keep your board waxed, yeah you can plan your route better, but getting stuck on a flat is still a possibility and god damn does it fucking suck.

Hi Ryan, Jim here from Scotland, I'm interested but am pozi-pozi, can you say who will be involved for us? Here is a video that will make you laugh, its my day 1 on a home made board in 1991. kzbin.info/www/bejne/eIakqJium6mCfa8si=ytxdGLRhi2i7TOY5

Ryan, I'm 100% going to do this! I might need to pick up a wider board (26cm is the widest I have) but I ride duck, am a level 2 instructor in Europe, love to carve, and I'm going to get some riding footage together for you this week!

I love to join it.

Could we submit a clip for some tips even though there is little chance we could go to the summer camp?

Different continent, end of July, might be Australia or South America? Hopefully you get some footage when it happens!

This is what I needed to see lmao

Ive been Boarding for 20 years, Im now 50, Ive picked up a few bad habits a long the way. You have inspired me over the last few years to stop being sloppy and do it RIGHT

Can’t wait for me details?!

Looking forward to hear more details!!! In the Jul. and Aug. I'm thinking only Aus and Nz has opening resort isn't it.

Looking forward to getting some travel in and making some turns outside of CO for a change 🤙

So ..reviews step in bindings but doesn't review step in feature

you the best, really good skills. Your carving inspires me to get my self to this level of carving

thats a dream for me , if i could i would try but old mother of 86 comes first but one day master ryan

❤❤it’s just unbelievable!!!!! I would like to participate, how do we get more infos?

How awesome, Ryan! (this is Zintars who was at your OG summer camp around 7 years ago BTW) Probably wouldn't work for me this year but curious to hear where you're holding it and otherwise once you can share more details. Mainly think it is great you're doing this and can't want to see the videos you all make!

Saw the same t-shirt dressed some Chinese snowboard guys... That's the feature about ?

How much would this cost

that's awesome. wish i was in a position to take advantage of this but maybe if its around next year... 👍🏽👍🏽

Nice!!!!

I think he has the same problem as me on heelside carves (I'm also +/+): he shifts his hips towards the nose leaving him with an uneven edge pressure/weight distribution between front and back foot (too much weight in the front). In my case, my front quad and butt cheek muscle is burning, while the back leg and its butt cheek muscle is unloaded. How to correct this? Even if I really try hard and conscious to shift my hip towards the tail and shift my weight onto the back foot, it just doesn't work, Imy whole body position and hip feels stuck and the longer into the turn the worse it gets (more weight on front foot and body position even more stuck and blocked). This might work on slopes like this i.e. mellow, wide turns, little speed, however if going faster, steeper slopes, tighter turns, more edge angle and butt closer to the snow then it will likely start to chatter and lose the edge due to this uneven edge pressure. Interestingly enough, on toeside (whether in a carved turn or just riding straight doesn't matter as long as the board is on its toeside edge) I have no problem shifting my hip around and back, there's all the freedom of movement, nothing is blocking/no feeling stuck, and I am also able to consciously shift my weight gradually from front (when initiating the turn) to back (when ending the turn) during the turn.

we need more of this, so smooth!!

Ahhh, half pipes !

Stylin' nice carving.. like turkey on the mountain

Nice!

A triple strap binding might not be a bad idea to be perfectly honest. Would prevent boots from folding in on themself.

This is a 20/10 explanation. Man, what an amazing teacher. <3 whiteboard!

Hey man, mods require function first. I use a speed strap on the forward boot. The head walls around Madison WI.are short-300 ,400 feet vertical,or it would be two. Being 70+ Im fairly done doing 3/4 k vertical . Cheers,Walker

I just found this video that brings up overdoing forward lean - Judder kzbin.info/www/bejne/fGSslJKinJl-bKM

Ryan, when you are holding a turn in a carve do you want more weight over your back foot rather than just staying centered?

Just had my first week in the Dolomites with the supermatics, WOW! I love them.

P.S. velcro tape keeps them from "walking out".Again,Cheers

Ran across your Video discussing shin guards. Two bucks at St Vinnies-Damn! Really improved my 32 Degrees.Many Thanks,Cheers Walker

How's riding in Japan?

Do you have a video of how to size for your first carver /hammerhead snowboard? I wanna get a full on carver setup. But honestly sometimes I feel like I carve best on my park camber twin board . Any tips I see a donek 164 on sale but my normal board is 154

What is the stiffness of your boots?

Love your videos...What size boot are you? I'm a US size 14 (Burton Photon) and Nidecker shows the Supermatic XL from 11.0 - 13.0, wasn't sure if the binding is big enough for my boot size.

Burton sponsor this man!

great! :)
