5 Simple Tips For Your First Snowboard Turn

[@RufftaMan]

I've been snowboarding for 30 years or so, but recently my sister asked me if I could teach it to my nephew. So thanks for those beginner videos you've been putting out lately, they're pretty useful since I don't think about those simple first steps anymore, and this gives me a nice perspective where to start.

[@djevans614]

Pls don't teach your nephew these techniques, get him a professional teacher it will make life SOO MUCH BETTER for him.

I met some older dude in his 60s and he taught me in like 5mins was so wonderful learning ! its so fun !

[@wanderer5200]

Groovy. This video helped me understand snowboarding a little better.

[@gie9]

That’s the best tip for tackling turning for the first timer. Awesome!!! I will be giving it a go.

[@thespectralights2072]

As a first time snowboarder as of Friday, toe side was easy, but heel side I was constantly catching an edge and crashing. Next go round I will try to learn heel side.

[@kylef84]

I had a half day lesson and this video and I can connect turns. This video really helped put it together

[@TReZxDrEaMz]

Going snowboarding first time indoors this weekend. This might come in handy

[@paulleyenhorst5797]

I love your videos, I'm a beginner snowboarder and these videos really make me want to get on my board and learn something new. Thanks!

[@maryjoannevalencia227]

Id say this is the best explanation out of all the videos Ive seen finally!!! Easy to follow and very detailed. I hope I get to do it this season 😅

[@SnowboardProCamp]

Glad it was helpful!

[@jeffreyfua]

This tip helps a lot, I'll be having my 1st ski/ Board experience next month. Thank you!

[@TtBbb-d1j]

Your videos are so helpful, breaking down step by step, shoulders to the top of the mountain, of course , thanks for the video! ❄️🏂🏔️🏂❄️

[@Dutzow78]

Thank you! You explained very well. So excited to jump from skiing to snowboarding after your advice. Best regards from România ❤❤❤

[@reverplusgrand]

Fantastic tips. Going to apply some of these tomorrow. Day 3 and hoping to turn better :)

[@J9hunna]

going for my first time today thanks for you mr videos

So useful! I’m having my first snowboard ing lesson later today! New subscriber 💖

Nicely done Kevin! California dreaming..

[@huskylord123]

Thank you for this.

[@leonogren8692]

I love your vids and they help me a lot but when I wasn't watching your vids I hade an accident when I was doing my toes I was going a little too fast so I smacked my head in the ground. your vids helped me out a lot.

[@ryanferguson7509]

Dude, thanks for the tips man, super cool of you

[@SnowboardProCamp]

No worries!

[@Jinglemyberries]

Easier said than done

[@ThaiLitzki]

Not really, it's your mindset that limits you. Think less, feel more.

[@Kerlingit_VR]

@@ThaiLitzkiok!

[@Aceofspades2006]

@@ThaiLitzkitrue my sister is so scared to fall it took her longer to learn skiing then me, also on a bike. Which is weird since she is more into sports and I’m more of an artist.

[@SanchoGracie]

fear of falling is definitely my biggest hurdle. ​@@Aceofspades2006

[@Artameful]

​@Aceofspades2006 you're more in tune with how you feel ig as an artist, whereas sports people have to constantly evaluate what's going on in their game.

[@ComputerHead0001]

In this video? Thought was in another video. Thanks for the heads up.

[@iluvrocknrap]

This is exactly what I needed to tell a friend thanks!

[@chuck__van]

Turns are the best

[@jonramas841]

Thank you!

[@blitzblack16th54]

It’s weird for me because can easily do toes but struggle with heels Update: was trying to do some heel edging and broke my humerus on my left arm, catch y’all next semester

[@katrinadaniel2572]

100% for me, its bc I can't get up from the ground confidently. I fall every time.

[@meetwho]

I'm the same, and you kind of fear catching the heel edge which makes it worse, I would suggest try buying some ass pads to not be afraid to fall on your ass and boost your confidence a bit

[@bigtuna281]

same here mastered the toe slide but it's my 3rd time iam having trouble whit stopping whit my heel

[@ineedfriends6764]

I can do both but I am more comfortable on heels

[@jdjflypnoi0213]

I'm completely opposite. My strength are my heels and need to focus more on my toes. I feel like it's what I have missing to complete my turns

[@bebelei245]

So good man - thank you!!

[@arnodehaan6171]

thx, well explained

[@victorrodriguez5194]

Cameraman needs more Credit 🔥 🔥 🔥

[@ivanwong9189]

Good sharing

[@somohlala]

Tip number 3 is great, I thought I only had to point my board down the fall line to do a proper turn. I’m so scared of picking up speed

[@jordanspencer8362]

After a year of training, I went for my first snow season in the alps earlier this year; I was fairly good except from really struggling when at pace (trying to keep up with experienced friends) turning from toe to heal edge and linking turns smoothly(specifically the shift of weight). Found myself panicking and forcing my left leg forward to intimate a fast turn therefore forcing a shift in weight. Kept falling and losing confidence. Any advice for intermediates on this?

[@MadProfessor153]

I would certainly suggest to go at your own pace and not attempt to keep up with your experienced friends. This applies to sooo many things in life where there is an experience difference. As a motorcycle rider it can be dangerous trying to keep pace with others when moving out of your comfort zone. Keep having fun out there!

[@stellabella2827]

@@MadProfessor153 I totally agree with this. It can be dangerous or just plain frustrating if you're trying to keep up with faster snowboarders. I would say to just enjoy it and take some time to focus on You and practice in a mellow area, get better and get your confidence up and just enjoy it By Yourself if you have to. Injuries and frustration just kind of ruin the experience. Don't give up on getting better and just have fun!

[@alkitriattv]

I tried for the first time this year. It was tempting to go with my partner who is experienced but after feeling discouraged seeing how fast and good he is, I asked him to actually give me space, leave me alone and let me figure things out on my own at my own pace. I instantly started learning faster. I agree with the previous advise, do things at your own pace first. Agree in your mind with the fact that it's going to take time to learn to be better. That approach really helped me and I am still at the Very beginning.

[@VinhNguyen-ul8yg]

Very good video!!!!

[@eugeniatorizdiazcontreras5885]

Excelente 👌!

[@austinanderson653]

Wish we had better mountains with longer runs near me to practice more spend more time waiting to get on lift and going up mountain than going down it and practicing

[@ejalitagtag]

Dang! I like this video. Maybe you can teach me and my kids?

[@glazedgooch4546]

Going snowboarding for the first time soon I think I'm just gonna send it going slow ain't my thing.

[@Kerlingit_VR]

Just like that😂 0:45

[@claysoggyfries]

I guess I'm crazy for prefering turning on my toes lol. I skateboard and it's only easier turning backside (toeside) on ramps. But when snowboarding, turning on my heels feels unnatural compared to turning on my toes

[@SnowboardProCamp]

Oh wow! That’s unusual but good that toes are easier for you!

[@emmarijsman04]

Quesion from a biggener: do you always turn with your preferred feet forward or should I practice both?

[@siiimone]

As a beginner, I would first practice 1 foot forward and when you get more advanced, try both

[@behroozamirinejad3959]

Thanks, I just have a question , in which turn I should reach the hand toward please?

[@adamdanby795]

What is the mountain he is on?

[@jeffdeluca1153]

I'm right handed but I feel natural with my left foot in front (not that I've tried this yet) IDK

[@nene8120]

What if it’s harder for me to do heel side 😢

[@SnowboardProCamp]

Will do a heel side specific video!

[@vows637]

if i have been on a snowboard like 1 or 2 times a long time ago is it hard to have balance on the snowboard? and u enjoy ur videos they are very help im just sitting here eating my food and learning

[@emilyh2362]

What size snowboard for 5’2” 125 lb beginner women’s 138 or 142

[@kennycornella474]

I’m still a beginner snowboarder I’m having a hard time turning into the first turn

[@karamdadouh8732]

Me too i just started i also having a hard time turning but the most hard thing for me is the toes is atoning the snowboard and getting the right angel with out falling.

[@Raiders1234]

Once it happens, it's that oh shit moment. I couldn't turn to my toes for like the first 5 times I went. Then it just clicked one day.

[@karamdadouh8732]

When im on my toes and did the s turn how do i turn around so quickly and do another s turn right away?

[@brequelcorman731]

Does my board clip the snow because im not digging it in enough?

[@Bad_Riders]

Is the puffer jacket the new staple spring/early season riding jacket?

[@chuck__van]

I think it would l look good on you

[@Bad_Riders]

@@chuck__van pure dad vibes… i dig it 🤣

[@JoseCuervo-x7o]

Need to mention more knee bending when turning, don't lock out your knees unless you want them to break

i mean there’s really nothing to be afraid of. if you fall i’d doesn’t hurt it’s literally snow

That's not entirely true, you can easily break a bone falling in snow.

Think it's too late to start snowboarding at 32?

[@philipramirez5406]

I don't think so. I saw someone's grandma in the lesson with me. Just don't go too crazy and make sure you fall safely! Fresh, soft snow is the best to learn on

[@adinalindbloom6365]

41 and third time on the board today… totally fun!! Just need to get the turns down.

[@chevygirlZ71]

I started at 32 and now I'm 35

[@matte_canton]

I think you should do more snowboard Vlogs instead of hint videos if you can, it’s just an opinion, I’m not saying you should stop doing this type of videos but it would be cool if there were more vlogs 😊

[@SnowboardProCamp]

More vlogs on the way!

[@matte_canton]

@@SnowboardProCamp Great!!! Love it

[@vMissVixenv12]

I ate shit 😂

[@therussianroulette_]

This is a very bad explanation, you are in fact not explaining anything. Especially the way you explain how to lean in your weight by reaching for a snow - complete disaster. Most newcomers will just move their shoulders and hands without moving their pelvis - which is the most crucial part for the weight distribution, to distribute the weight with pelvis. Not a word about how you have to steer with your eyes, how to work your heels, toes and shins while turning. Very sloppy work which is setting up beginners to fail.

[@katdogz]

You dont expain 75 % of your movement. This is unhelpful

[@matthewsmart936]

You never once described what to do with your legs. (Knees, ankles or feet) shoulders are not the primary turning force of something attached to your feet. Don't teach people if you don't know yourself.

[@SnowboardProCamp]
