HOW TO STRAP IN WITHOUT SITTING DOWN

[@gageinoc]

This is awesome! I’ve always pulled my edge towards my body, slicing into the snow. Never thought of just pushing the snow with my board!! Great tip Malcom!

[@davidsmith6669]

Me too man who knew!!

[@jgdovin1]

Same here! So glad I found this video early in snowboarding!

[@JohnMacVideos]

[@chuck__van]

Mind blowingly simple.. yet never thought of it either... nore seen it done. Be trying that for sure.

[@ToddM71]

So simple yet my caveman instincts always told me to dig my edge in

[@apass2803]

I’ve been watching your vids for 3 days your definitely one of the best when it comes to snowboard content

[@malcolmmoore]

Thanks Joe I appreciate it 🙏

[@powdertrax9742]

Been riding for 38 years now and we’ve always done the opposite way, instead of pushing we lift our boards ever so slightly and chop the heal edge into to hill creating that same groove/shelf to stand on. The best thing about doing it our way is that on your next run up your groove will still be there waiting for you to buckle in, a good practice is to do it off to the sides of the run

[@MarkAlgar1878]

I too do this, dig my heal in. Works for me.

[@hsidder]

Love the simplicity and that it works on any pitched slope. First year boarder here, thanks for the simple, yet brilliant tip!

[@malcolmmoore]

🙌😉

[@foadysfah]

All my friends strap in standing and I just couldn’t do it. They all told me “dig your heel in bro”, but the edge I was creating was not enough to keep the board steady. I’m definitely trying this tip next weekend, thank you Malcom!

[@shawngao]

This is actually the first thing I’ve ever learned in snowboarding classes. Kudos to my instructor!

[@malcolmmoore]

👌

[@elho001]

Was not explicitly taught it, but seeing the instructor do it himself, I knew I got to learn it ASAP and started trying until my balance was good enough for it to actually save time.

[@gregharper]

This is a great tip. The "oldest instructor on the mountain" (his words) showed me this early on. Being not as flexible as I used to be this simple technique is a game changer. I dig in with my heel edge and return to my groove on future runs. Beat trying to turn over and get up on my toe edge all day. That's just exhausting.

[@rikinmarfatia]

Actually haven't seen this method of doing it before, i'll give it a go! Normally I face back up the fall line and dig my heal edge in a bit so it doesn't slide.

[@GazCB]

Same here.

[@briviao]

indeed your way (which is also what I do) is much better. Works with (nearly) any slope and also on hard snow.

[@mikepearse5113]

The heel of the boot sits in the binding better especially if your high backs have a lot of forward lean.

[@elho001]

Instead of tediously pushing the snow away in several strokes, I use a hacking approach, in such soft snow as in the video, a single determined slamming the edge into the slope would be enough. On icy hard pack 3-5 good whacks will do it, where you would be scraping quite some time. While a true platform is nice for beginners, all it strictly takes is a tiny ridge that helps the edge enough to keep the board from starting to side slip. Once you got the balance straight, a pretty small ridge provides a surprisingly big improvement to the balancing. Also, you only showed heel edge, but it works front or heel, so however the slope ends up being inclined in relation to your orientation as you come off the lift, you can strap in straght away without wasting time to swivel the board around. And on steep terrain, it can also be useful, being easier to balance on the front side edge. It is another example proving my point that laziness is an excellent teacher in early progress. Being too lazy having to stand up all the time after sitting down, pushed learning this early just like trying to keep standing upright when stopping on a slope to wait for another raider or look where to go. Just like being too lazy to ever want to bootpack out of some flat section when avoidable, made me learn to loose as little speed as possible in them, and overcome any reluctance of going faster into them to begin with.

Don’t forget to adjust your forward lean screws makes a world of difference

[@cacfuture]

@@jimmybushkill5295 can you elaborate please ?

[@jimmybushkill5295]

@@cacfuture if u are talking about forward lean there are 2 screws on the back of your high backs or a lever if u are not using step ons there should be no gap between your high back and your calf this allows for more aggressive toe control in time you can angle them father forward this will push your knees forward and make for responsive heel and toe turning by shorting the movement of your legs.

[@patthesoundguy]

Yup here in Nova Scotia Canada there is no way I can push snow like that... I have to basically chop a notch with my heel edge. It's super fast to do. I never sit down to strap in. Also it can be a royal pain to get back up from the ground in hard boots so standing up to clip in is essential for me.

The dig in just looks cooler. I always dig with unnecessary aggression and I'm 99% sure it adds cool points. 😎 LOL

[@willsohrnberger2441]

Honestly, coming from someone who was doing 1.5mil+ vertical feet a season and 100+ days on snow, I ALWAYS sat when strapping in because I think strapping in while standing forces you to use more ab, thigh, calf, back, muscle energy. Sitting allows you to relax your muscles while strapping in saving precious energy on days you are trying to get 35, 40, or even 50k vertical feet.

[@malcolmmoore]

I think the energy expended in sitting down and then standing up again is more, but whatever works for you, this is just a tip as I know alot of people struggle to stand up on their board, and often even have to roll over onto their toes afterwards to stand back up. So for those people this is definitely less work!

[@willsohrnberger2441]

@@malcolmmoore True. Maybe because i'm 5'5'' and hopping up has never been a struggle. I've definitely taught some 6'' huskier guys to snowboard and they can't stand up from their butt and have to roll onto toes and use knees to get up, so I can see how for a taller person strapping in while standing might save energy but I, personally, feel like there is zero energy expelled when standing up from sitting to put your board on and maybe thats just a short person perspective, never really thought about it like that. But 100%, for me personally, having done both 1000's of times, standing while strapping in over the course of a whole 8 hour day of riding is way way way more energy consuming not even comparable lol.

[@DanChippendaleMusic]

I find give the slope a good wack with your heel edge a few times on a steep slope means you dig in to packed stuff and it doesn't move 👍🏻

[@mrpozhiloy6595]

wow take me to another level, going to Olympics next time with this feature, thanks

[@joepetch308]

Great tutorials! Took me a while to get this locked. Not too sure if you have a vid already but riding a flat board is a good one. I found rinding drag lifts helped a lot. Keep them coming mate!

[@elho001]

Amen for the drag lifts. It kinda is a shame that they are so rare or even often completely absent these days. Sure, their throughput sucks, but you are forced to learn that one footed riding like no where else. One thing to like about France, they still have the super old ones, with the magazine of metal bars at the bottom instead of the self retracting rope. The ones that instead of gently accelerating, instead propel you into the air making you do a big one footed jump, from standstill to going at the pace of the lift, the second the operator pulls the lever that makes your bar clamp onto the rope. Some are quite tame, featuring a telescopic bar with a gentle spring taking up most of the force, but there's still those that give you solid air time and push you to the edge of your abilities. 😉 Also, the opportunity to skip the waiting line on a T-bar by joining someone riding alone at some point after the start, e.g. where the slope crosses the lift... 😈 That involves another skill to learn - unstrapping while riding a T-bar. Finally, drag lifts have been a good opportunity to train those tail presses, too.

[@byunism]

I've always dug up slope with my heels but gonna try this tomorrow! Rocking the Burton step ons so not sure I can even get clicked in sitting down. Never tried 😁

[@malcolmmoore]

[@skypiratez]

That’s nice but I’m assuming it works on slopes up to moderate angle. Once you get into the moderate angles and more you have to push a lot to get a stable ledge. In this case I’m doing the pulling trick, digging a stable trench towards me.

[@drawer6815]

Get step-ins. The Burton ones are amazing.

[@eckstein3558]

I will try this next week! Could you do a video about stances and Binding set up in the future? I'm especially interested in the effects of a wider compared to a narrower stance.

[@elho001]

Try it. There may be theoretical effects (and I am a big fan of understanding the theory) like e.g. duck stance making switch riding easier (and pure symmetric duck obviously makes both directions the same), but ultimately it must work for you. If you do not feel like wasting valuable time on the mountain, do it in some indoor slope - about the only thing those are useful for. When it comes to stance width, I typically go with the re fence of the board (being what it is meant to feel like), if specified, the theory IIRC says wider gives more stability and narrower better spins, but to be honest, just going one slot in or out to me makes little difference, whereas changing angles does immediately feel weird. 🤷‍♂️

[@malcolmmoore]

Yeah literally dropping a gear video tonight with all my stance angles!

[@princessodchimar8511]

Can you please do a video on how to get off the chairlift for beginners?

[@nickwoodward819]

your best bet is to practice by climbing a foot or two up a slope and snowboarding down without your back foot in. you can almost ignore the chair itself - just stand up and the chair will push you down the slope. at the most you need a tiny push, but really most people over do it

[@elho001]

Youth today... 😉 We never had to learn that , because before making it to one of the rare chair lifts, we had to make it up the common drag lifts. Once you learned that in many frustrating attempts, riding off a chair lift was a piece of cake. 😆 But yeah, improve your one footed riding, go to the flattest flat part of the bunny hill or similar flat section where you barely pick up speed and train it. Also try and find both flats that are slightly slanted to the left or right side (or try and go diagonally on a level one, if its empty enough) to practice going into the direction you want, instead of where the slope wants. Lift exits tend to be far from optimal in that regard d at times. 😉 Also, most people tend to stand up way too early, making things harder than they need to be. Typically the snow is quite close to the chair where it starts, to accommodate kids and small people, but everyone else will have his knees up higher than the hips, almost squatting, requiring much more effort, and thus force pushed into the board, that may move it in unintended ways. instead just wait as your knee sinks down as the chair moves on, move a bit forward on the chair, so that you not only are able to bring that back foot in position between the bindings, but also let the front upper leg sink down, almost automatically ending up in and upright standing position as you finally slip off the chair. There is no reason to panic, there's plenty of time for this and worst case they will slow down or stop the chair anyway. And while, as an advanced rider, pushing yourself off of the chair to get ahead of the skiiers that may have been with your on the chair and otherwise would eventually cut your path is a good tactic that also avoids some skier falling in front of you, just staying on the chair a bit longer, letting them ski off first, is likewise effective and leaves you with the whole width of the outrun to your disposal, allow for more error in steering to the direction you want to go.

[@johnpauljones9693]

I don't mess with any straps, I just step in, but still need to chisel a spot on the hill, have not tried the plow forward method.

[@matthes4skate]

My problem is not sliding but that the straps of the binding are in the way of placing my foot. If i put them over before they slap back in the way on the instant. Any tips or its just the bindings? 2nd season with my burton missions

[@krohner5190]

Lift the anklestrap all the way up so that the highback holds it open. I have the cartels though which where the anklestrap bends out for easy entry

[@elho001]

Its not the bindings (Burton Genesis here). Put the boot down into the binding not by simly panting it down as if you wanted to stomp on the ground, but tip first as if you were slipping your feet into a shoe. ie. get with the tip of the boot under or at least next to the strap that is not cooperating to push it out of the way (so typically to the front side) instead of approaching it from the top, which would only push it down where you do not want it to be. Also, the big disadvantage of putting them out of the way using your hands before you strap in, that you have to bow down to do that, which you can avoid 90% of the time, once you get used to fumbling your foot into the binding either way. 😀 A good way to improve that skill and another improvement for the lazy rider is to also do the reverse and try and sort and "stow away" the straps and finally fold down the highback with your foot while standing in the lift line, or better yet, while you glide one footed through the empty lift line, saving you the effort to bow down to do it with your hand and as well as shaving of a few more seconds to spend riding instead, in the second case. 😀

I've been riding for 18th days. I can now ride all blue and few easier black diamond comfortably. I can finally ride switch, and do some easy ollie and front side 180 on green slope. I just can't stand up strap in to save my life. I duno why it is so hard. I try and try watching so many tutorial. What is happening to me is the straps are always in the way. Even if I move the strap aside, and managed to strap in standing up, the end of my heel aren't fully hugged with the binding's heel cup. There is always a tiny tiny gap. If I strap in sitting there will have no gap. My forward lean is quite high maybe. But I really like more forward lean on the binding :(

[@4282richard]

I used to have the same issue myself, I would be literally banging my foot in by leaving my top stap a little loose and then banging my heel edge down while I was sat on my arse. One solution is that you bindings are too small or as you said you have too much forward lean. My problem was too much forward lean. Good luck getting it sorted.

[@elho001]

If you get the boot in place sitting, it can not be the forward lean preventing it. And you sure can get the foot in standing. I do not know off the top of my head what the maximum forward lean on my Burton Genenis is, but I am at F-5 and F-4, which is not too shabby, and e.g. if I strap in (standing, of course) balancing on the front side, I can still easily go lower so that the boot comes more forward than the forward lean. What you have to do, is not immediately tighten the main strap all the way, but before doing that, take your weight off of the back foot, almost trying to lif the heel a bit and tighten the front strap some more, which (with any modern over the tip of the boot design) will push the boot back into the heel easily (as you took your weight off of it). Just do not overdo - if the tip of your boot is crumpling, it was too much. 😉 Now that the boot is pushed into the heelcup and can not move forward out of it, you can put your weight on it again and tighten the main strap.

[@RadialHead]

I've always strapped in standing up thanks to my instructor (cheers Renelle!). But I recently got some Clew step-in bindings & after testing them out with five hours of laps in a dome, I can't see me ever going back to straps.

[@elho001]

Maybe after the first time trying to o step in deep powder or with lots of ice built up? 😉 Dunno how good these step-ins of today are, but I do know, that even with straps, after strapping in in powder, as soon as you are in a better position, you want to re -strap in with the couple of centimeters of snow between boot and binding removed that inevitably make it there... 😜

[@RadialHead]

@@elho001 the Clews have normal straps so not an issue.

[@elho001]

@@RadialHead Oh, I see. First time I stumble over these. The thing is that you can ignore the step in part and use it purely using the straps, like e.g. on a powder day. Now that is an interesting concept. Those big release handles scare me a bit, for some irrational reason I imagine e.g. a twig in tight trees catching it and ejecting you off your board, or something. 😉 More rationally, as a pants over highback rider, I wonder how accessible that release handle is, when its under your pants. 🤔 Does it require some good force to pull, or rather easy, so workable through a layer of hardshell?
