In this video I'm teaching my friend Chris how to snowboard for the very first time. I'm going to take him through all the beginner snowboard steps and help him progress safely. We're practicing in the beginner learning area on Blackcomb mountain in Whistler, which I think is the best place for teaching new snowboarders. If you have any questions about learning to snowboard it would be great to hear them in the comments. Thanks for watching!

this is so funny because when I learn how to snowboard I was 15 and all my friends have been snowboarding for 10 years and they took me out to the top of the hill and they said okay let's go !!!!!!.......hhahahahaha

Oh man, this brought back some memories. It's cool to see someone else learning. It also reminded me of how hard it was to learn the basics. Awesome job getting off the lift the first time without falling! Even after all these years, getting off the lift is still the hardest thing to me.

Thanks for this. I tried skiing a few years ago but I'm tall and I had skinny legs so it was hard to turn. Enjoyed it but never felt confident enough to get off the bunny slope (didn't want to run into anybody or a tree). Since then I've been working out a lot more and moved to Denver this year and want to try snowboarding this winter. Thanks Chris for putting yourself out there.

@lax2jfk Год назад

Love your videos, I have been a skier for over 30 years. Heading to Vail in January and decided this would be the year I would take up Snowboarding. I live in NYC and starting watching your videos, went to Big Snow in New Jersey and worked on the basics that you taught Chris, day 2 I took a private lesson at Big Snow which was amazing, and by day 3 I was killing it and hooked. I will never Ski again, I love Snowboarding and wished I would have taken it up years ago. So excited for Vail in a few weeks. Your videos have been way more helpful than others on here. Appreciate all you are doing...

Picked boarding back up in mid 30s after 12 year break. Found I like much larger boards than I used to. All the new hybrid cambers and rockers are so much nicer than the straight camber sticks we had back in the day.

@mishapmaster 3 года назад

Awesome coaching Kevin! I have one tip! For me it feels better to drag my heel in the snow when I'm trying to stop while one footing. Easier to push harder that way I think, still Chris did great 👍🏻 can't wait for your next video to see his progression!

@TheRuning11 2 года назад

My first time going snowboarding was last Saturday the 27th of November and the first place my friend took me was to the lift for the intermediate slopes. To say the least, I was not ready for those. I can't blame him for there were no beginners slopes open at the time at Hunter Mountain, but I did get off the lift successfullyish, because I fell after I glided away from the area. From there I was just standing up snowboarding a bit and on the floor. I couldn't finish the whole slope, I got there about halfway there. I was drained and tired, but I can't wait for next week. I leased my equipment and if I end up improving and still like it this season, I'll buy my equipment at the end of this one. I was also sore afterwards and the next day.

@ThaoLe-xv1di 2 года назад

Done two sessions already. The heel slide and eventual falling leaf is critical. Toe side will fall into place once you get the heel. Helps to point and look in the desired location.
