Love the video I’ve been riding for 8 years and some of the statistics were surprising to me. One tip I would also add is don’t ride tired… if you are nearing the end of the day don’t go for “one last run” or if you do then take it easy. As you get tired you tend to fall more and this could cause you to get hurt.

So fucking true, yesterday when I was trying to head back to the lodge, I missed a turn and had to take the lift again, and I got so battered from the constant falls. Two good hits on my tailbone and head, and I was barely able to ride. I ended up just heel-riding, because I was too tired to carve without falling.

@judsonl8990 2 года назад

To your point about skiers causing more accidents - I was run over by a skier a couple weeks ago. I was working on carving - heelside, toeside over and over again (it was super obvious what I was going to do next) and the guy cam flying up from behind right after I started a toeside turn. I glanced up hill to make sure I wasn't in anyone's way, and he crashed directly into me. After checking to make sure he was ok, he said, "I may have had one too many Fireballs." I was pissed man! Drinking while riding/skiing is about the dumbest thing you can do on the mountain.

@GrimeB 7 месяцев назад

my first ever lesson was taught on a dry ski slope, the guy there taught us to fall and use your elbows to "catch" yourself, so when falling forward but both arms up with palms facing in like a "shield" and if you fall backwards pull your hands in a fist to your hips so you elbows protrude behind you, i did 2 full seasons, had many falls and this saved me countless times even with some huge slams on XL jumps. it also feels much more natural to put something out infront of you or behind you to "catch" the fall

@bukchoiii 3 года назад

crash pants and jackets are great, i've been riding for 15 years and wear them, it helps boost your confidence in park and makes me crash less. also completely agree, so many people are trying jumps at the park without knowing how to even carve first..

Thank you for mentioning the ''go big or go home'' quote, true to the core, dont do that guys, usually its go home, its not that you shouldnt commit to new tricks but do them step by step, every trick and skill needs training, if you choose to go big and end up going home remember that it will break you mentally for a long time. Stay safe and take your time.

@paulvoney9592 3 года назад

Very helpful video! Although I would say, that it's better to fall on your forearms than just keep the hands to yourself, instead of landing on your wrists. Because if you just keep your hands near your body, the body is going to take all the impact. If you land on your forearms, then you can absorb the impact more and you'll mostly just slide out of the crash. This has helped me a lot and hopefully will help others too. This is not meant disrespectfully to the video, it's just my preferred way of falling. Have a good day!

@ShredSchool1 3 года назад

Great advice! Thanks for sharing

@cazhamill2406 2 года назад

@@ShredSchool1 I was wondering if you or any of your friends have dealt with shoulder injuries? It doesn't happen every crash, but several times over the course of the season I will freeze/dislocate my left shoulder. I've always instinctually tried to land on my forearms but then I'm more liable for a dislocation. Surgery isn't an option, physical therapy helps, but it's still pretty tough to ride within my skill level anymore because the odds of messing my shoulder up. Love the vids, by the way~

@ESLinsider 2 года назад

Yeah forearm is better. Judo training is helpful for snowboarding too. Lots of rolling and learning how to break your fall. And as we say in judo and BJJ... an extended arm is a broken arm.

@FuZzOtagE 2 года назад

@@cazhamill2406 it sounds like you might want to start working out your shoulders more. The stronger your muscles are around the tendons and ligaments that hold them together, the less likely an injury will occur. Also make sure to work on flexibility. Do a lot of stretching after also yoga helps a lot. Just keep increasing your physical well-being and your diet along with your skill level. If we neglect anything, we are that much more likely to get injured. I hope I'm not saying things that you already know but if I did oh well. Just reminding myself as well.

One thing I'd like to add here for anybody reading this is to be really careful on early season conditions. Sometimes it just isn't worth it to go down a run that may have a bit of snow just because things can be so unexpected. Really spotting your runs spotting your Landing spotting everything that you're about to touch that board to is Paramount.

To prevent breaking your wrists, buy *good* gloves with built-in wrist protection. If they’re too expensive, buy good skateboard wrist protectors and wear them under larger size mitts. They’ve saved me from several broken wrists (where the protector actually cracked and I just sprained my wrist).

@user-zp6rn7qd6l 5 месяцев назад

There's a lot to be said about working on your awareness while sliding down a run after a fall... Learning to roll in such a way that the board is down hill then engaging that uphill edge and transferring the momentum to standing back up and riding away. Sliding out of control can lead to that dreaded sudden stop.

@coolg963 2 года назад

I would say I'm pretty good compared to the average, done back country, double blacks, etc. I still try to avoid going to the hill without wristguards, even thought I've gotten used to mostly sliding out most of the time.

My only real snowboarding injury was in the terrain park. I was trying to ride down the side of one of the big jumps (kinda like dropping into a quarter pipe) but someone had built a small makeshift jump right where I was planning on jumping in so I caught my edge and fell about 9 feet straight onto my face. Didn’t break anything or get a concussion but I had bruising and scabs on my face for a month.

@pavelberezovskiy 6 месяцев назад

I only tried snowboarding for the first time only a year ago and crash pants worked amazing for me. I usually get hurt quite a bit around the coccyx area when I fall on my back, but with crash pants I was falling again and again without getting any pain in that area whatsoever. It made me more confident, since I wasn't as afraid to fall, so I've managed to learn faster. They are obviously a bit uncomfortable, but it's not that bad and you get used to it quite quickly.

as someone who got cut off by a skier who wasnt looking and did like 5 barrel rolls and may or may not have had a minor concussion, i can agree that skiers cause alot of problems (and before you say its probably my fault) i wasnt doing anything excessive, no speeding or extremely wide carving, the skier bascailly went full on over my board and caused me to well, tumble and tumble and tumble, however because of this i did learn to maybe over excessively check so, a ray of sunshine in a very snow covered body

My biggest wake up call was applying skateboard bailing techniques to snowboarding. On my first day I crashed at high speed and instinctively tried to roll out of the tumble as I would on a skateboard. My board dug into the snow and my body weight rotated and torqued my knees really bad.

@samuelknight5512 5 месяцев назад

@Gramercy_Stiffs 5 месяцев назад

@@samuelknight5512 Do practice crashes. I had to train out the roll instinct. Now when I bail I just try and get as flat as possible on the snow so that the force is distributed evenly and I slide to a stop. If you watch MOTO GP riders crash they sort of tuck in their arms to their sides but lay flat and wait for the slide to stop. I'm not sure if this is correct but it's what is safest for me.

@amychen2188 Год назад

I relate to falling on my wrists a lot. It can be really hard to not instinctually fall on your wrist, especially when it all feels so fast, one way that I kind of trained myself to not fall on my hands is doing "t- rex arms." You lift your forarms in front of your chest and it looks like you are doing t-rex arms. When you fall you'll fall on your forearm. It does look kind of silly but it really helped me with a safer falling technique. I"m not sure how safe it is to have the impact hit your shoulders but at least my wrist don't feel like they're gonna fall off.

@thecombatcactus4254 Год назад

My tip which you touched on, GET YOUR LEGS/TAIL/NOSE UNDER YOU, absorb, then push off and kind of throw the rest of your body in a more lateral direction. This applies to if your off axis or not, the act of getting your tail, nose, or your legs under you at all can take the BRUNT of the downward force, then take the rest of it with your body.

Rule #2 was literally a life saver for me. I caught an edge on a cat track (that was going across the run) that I didn't see in low visibility going 30-40 mph. Felt myself flip and then can't remember anything after that because I was knocked unconscious for about a minute. I broke my back, and sustained a concussion, so I don't remember much, but I remember the ski patrol saying to me "yeah if you weren't wearing a helmet you would be dead now." So please everyone wear a helmet.

This last weekend I was at Hood with my boys. Last run did a backside 180 off a side hit (new board, but had been getting used to it all day) and caught the front edge on the landing. The snow was softer in that area and I pulled hands in and rolled, but got super unlucky and my hand got pressed into my side at the ribs/peck level and I wound up popping a rib out from the impact and pulled my peck muscle. It hurt to take deep breaths until I popped my rib back in and now my peck is like 60% healed from the pain I had. I say this to say, I was tired by last run and had no business doing any tricks because my body felt "lazy". Just adding and agreeing to those who added the listen to your body as an important one too.

I was told not to use wrist guards because that causes the energy to compress into your elbow instead. Elbow injury takes longer to heal. I don’t have a lot of natural padding, so I used the crash pants wile learning. Slim profile and I didn’t even notice I’m wearing them, my tailbone is thankful. If you plan to try to sit instead of crash I would recommend a pair. Tailbone on ice isn’t fun.

I know already to keep my hands in towards my chest and distribute falls, but man one slip of the mind and it can be ER for you and no more fun for the trip.

As for park jumps, I cant really speak on the severity of this - definitely cant go into the terrain park on the clock 😂 but maybe I will one day on my day off and discover that its a lot worse... hence why Im practicing lots of side hits first.

No wrist injure at all - directly blew out my shoulder including the labrum. Why ? Tried out new board of friend - directly on the rail instead of getting used to it first... Error of "progressively work your way up"... You mentioned helmet, did i just miss Backprotector ? A must have imho. Let's shred the Season together!

I wear very low profile knee pads doesn't affect my riding. It gives me more confidence to huck around more

If you catch your downhill edge. Tuck into a rolie polie and you'll simply roll back onto your board without any injury and you'll be able to keep your momentum

The stat that 72% of fatalities are from skiers can be explained by a simple fact: Around 70% of people on the mountains are skiers. This means that neither sport is inherently more or less risky than the other.

So if you catch your toe edge how to you soften the blow if you dont put out your hands??

@lucasbaird08 5 месяцев назад

speed never killed anyone, coming to an abrupt stop on the other hand, thats what catches people offguard.

Ive almost been smoked or cut of by skis more times than I can count on my fingers and toes now that i think of it.

You should also mention back protectors. Most important item after the helmet. As a snowboarder you will be sitting on the slope from time to time. The chance of somebody hitting you is quite high unfortunately.

I wrecked trying 3s off a big jump and landed on my back because I caught my edge on the lip but I came back and landed it.

This was a VERYSMART Video to watch as a Beggining Snowboarder even after being a Skateboarer for over 50 on and off...

@scaryperryx1050 Год назад

That''s 50 years on and off... I started Skateboarding in 1974. Stopped in December of 1979. then came back to it after an Alva Store Anniversary Party in 2006. Only if I could snowboard everyday like you guys get too. Thank you for the Video...

do you have any tips for BS180 jumps to get less edge catches. I literally caught all.. worst were BS edges.. FS were also not so funny.. but compared to BS edges way less horrible . I moved to smaller jumps.. that helped already a lot.. but still about some percentage fail and some fail horrible.. want to have horrible crashes down to zero. Is there a safe way to get it fast into muscle memory.. living room training strapped in on carpet I have zero problems.. but as soon I am on snow and speed, the success rate is dropping.

@ShredSchool1 3 года назад

ouch! It's never fun catching a backside edge. We have a full breakdown of your weight placement for BS 180's in Shred School www.edshreds.com Watch the downhill edge, protect it with your life, and if you come up short on the spin, scrub it around on your toes, rather than leaning on your heel where you can catch an edge. I would practice on the slope (no jump) just landing halfway and finishing it on your toeside edge so you train yourself not to catch.

@winterzahn 3 года назад

@@ShredSchool1 thx for the tip. I started on slope with safe toe edge landings, slightly underrotated, , transferred it to jumps.. and then I got ambitions to land perfectly flat, body axis straight perpendicular to transition/landing.. this way I got my worst heelside catch of life when underrotating... almost blew me out. I will return to safe toe edge landings and improve from there.. thx

When I go to the snowboard/ski resort there were very few snowboarders, so I think that's why there are more injeries and things with skiers.

@kyhlekable8088 2 года назад

Good point

@handeddegk197 4 месяца назад

Best way to fall if you can is to go for your shoulder and let the momentum carry you to your back kinda like martial arts. You can use your elbows in front of you as a edge at first. Also you can try on a mattress, and now you are a Roly poly master. Also saved me on bad crash on bike, landed on my back unscathed

I learned the hard way during my first season with over 25 falls.

@sj10.06 2 года назад

I watched this video a few weeks ago and yesterday went snowboarding with my dad and was explaining to him how not to land on your hands but instead your back or shoulders. I ended up spraining my wrist. 😮‍💨😐😩💀

@Naan-Bread8136 2 года назад

ok good thing i watched this vid cuz soon im going snowboarding for the first time and I am going to drumming lessons so good thing i know not to use my wrists

@WookieeCookiee 2 года назад

I think your statistics on ski v snowboarding accidents are a little misleading. Sure, the percentage of skiers causing accidents is higher, but that's because there's 3/4 times more skiers on the mountain than snowboarders (even more in certain regions). When you account for that, the accident rates are pretty much equal.
