Yo, the very first tip isnt even true because some people prefer their nose and tail edges duller for butters and so its not as reactive on the snow. Idk dawg i dont think thats a begginer thing i do that too and i do it to keep them dull.

Stomp Pad. This is a huge game changer, most problems for getting off the lift derives from not being able to keep your unstrapped foot on the board, the stomp pad solves that problem.

The tip about not bombing down the hill and start ollies and carving is huge. I was one of the people that just bombed down the hill and I wasn’t progressing at all so I slowed down and started getting more playful with the board. Huge part of progressing in the beginning stages.

One thing that I really just learned was that I shouldn’t be resting my snowboard on my boot that helped a lot. Thanks man.

Heck yeah!

The suspense for the heli trip video is KILLING ME! Thanks for the tip on he high back, it will keep my new boots nice!

I actually think heading to slightly steeper, SOFTER snow when beginning may be a good tactic. The greens and blues can be packed and hard and the flatter the slope, the more vague/subtle being on an edge is. Not to mention there's more traffic and possibility of running into someone. My first two trips out I stayed on the bunny hill and greens and fell super hard super often (which obviously is normal). My third time out was with a buddy of mine who's been on the mountain his whole life and he took me straight to the top and I had an infinitely better time. Fell just as much but it didn't hurt so damn bad and was way more fun and less stressful..

Seriously - more trafficked slopes are usually WAY harder when you fall. The snow is likely more compacted and the fall can be worse due to less downward momentum (as long as you're going the same speed)

1:40 This is so true and this needs to be expressed more. Just because you can nail that black run, doesn’t mean the other less difficult runs are off limits to you. Most of the time you will also find people like yourself on the less difficult runs just trying to practice something. Don’t feel embarrassed. This is the same for the terrain park, if it takes you three times down the terrain park to actually start hitting tricks, then so be it. You are just being cautious of your surroundings and remember that everyone you see doing jumps or doing black runs started just like you!

I’ve been riding for a few years and I’ve always rested my board on my boots and there are definitely marks on it. thanks for the tip

Just got my Pearl wax last week! Thanks for the heads up, probably the best wax I’ve used. Love the temp variants they have. It sucks being somewhere like alaska where day one could be 30 degrees and day two be 5 degrees but you have the wrong temp wax on the board. Definitely going to be using it from now on!

Just wanted to say thanks @Johnathan Buckhouse. Your carving video brought my snowboarding to an entire new level. Absolutely love your videos and people benefit from them.

This is a genuinely great video, super useful tips. My tip would be in relation to progression, it can be very frustrating when you're trying to get better and its not happening as fast as you might like, but make sure that you're still having fun at the end of the day, otherwise its not really worth it!

Bro i agree so much i just rent boots because my feet still grow but when i started i always put my foot under my board but over the years i got conferrable with my one foot also my advice is try new things but don´t rush. my mistake was spending way to much time on the bunny hill when i was ready for the next step up.

All of your content is fantastic!!

I didn't think I would learn anything from this being an intermediate rider, nope I learned!!!!

Great videos! Keep them coming

Amazing videos dude, appreciate you 🤙

Thanks for the tips this really helped

Good tips there 👍 Best instructor tip ever : always wear padded shorts & knee pads! Saves much pain and as a bonus its much warmer sitting or kneeling in the snow. Dianese armoured shorts are my preference. Back protector too if you're spending a lot of time in the park. And a lid obviously. 👨‍🚀

Obviously different strokes for different folks, but imo I would suggest taking the first day to solely get comfortable on the board and on your edges (chill on the bunny hill). I tried greens without ever being in a board before and I was just extremely frustrated the entire time and it made me almost quit. That being said, once you are comfortable and can stop on your edges, get out of the bunny hill ASAP because it’s going to be easier to learn on the actual runs!

When I was learning how to ski, I would take the easy way down followed by a run that was just above my ability or just at the top of it. Then I'd follow up with the easy run, and then a moderately challenging run. That formerly moderately challenging run would then be pretty easy. Then repeat the process. I've taken people from first timers to riding any groomed run on the mountain, (Starfire at Keystone) in 3 days or less. Skiers and snowboarders. Not sliding turns and being able to stop anywhere are keys to progression.

Going to the not worrying about judgement part. I can promise yall, the people snowboarding with you do not care if you fall or fail. Some people will literally sit and watch until you hit a certain trick or veterans will literally come up to you and explain how to do it or give tips. Us snowboarders and some skiiers ive met are all insanely nice people.

one thing i can say about this vidoe is, for my first time i just went stright to the top, i was on a green though. but i learned really fast. I just went for my second time and im hitting blues now. but in the middle of that day i did hit the baby lift a few time to practice my toe slide

i just use easy wax that you "spray" then buff out and it works just as well, if not better! plus I'm a student and its super affordable

3 of my cousins are Olympic skiers...downhill, free style and moguls...my biggest tip from pro skiers...Stay on the bunny hill until stopping becomes natural...the thing with stopping, same with snowboards, the action of stopping is how you learn to carve...

Tip 7 needs a to be a little more clarified. As an instructor, I have had several people come out with the wrong size board, bindings that are not properly adjusted, and bindings that are not great for people just starting out. Proper size is important and the gear does matter. Bindings that only wrap your foot but not your toes can cause your toes to want to lift up instead of being locked down like the top of your foot. It is important that your heel and toes never lift up from the board because those points are what allow you to have a solid connection with your edges. Spending more money on better equipment will help improve your riding because you get what you pay for. All things for your snowboard are for performance. Buy a shitty set of bindings, have a shitty connection with your board and ultimately a shitty time.

True!

i agree about the ruddering issue! Controversially though I think its not that much of a problem/issue. I noticed when I;m teaching friends its best they master being able to make it down the mountain as quickly as possible then finesse and refine, then they master how to do it perfectly. So Im always happy if they are able to rudder their way down because we can work on edge control later

Personally even tho I go to the top of the mountain everytime I snowboard. A good tip is to warm up on the easier trails. Especially if you live in a place like Cali where snowboarding is once a year thing

When i went snowboarding i was going on a little jump under the chair lift and i fell just before the jump and they all went uhhh in way that made it feel they said uhh you will get it next time and then went yay when i was able to get enough speed to do the jump and did perfect it made my day so much better.

Hey Johnathan, I have a burton Custom Flying V 162W and my weight is 125 and height is 5'8. Am I okay to ride this board or should i get a smaller one like 150/154/157

Big tip froM me: If your core strength and leg muscles are not the strongest and have no condition hit the gym or start to workout these areas if you are going to snowboard for more than just a few hours. Muscles get tired and your knees have to catch impacts.

While I understand point 7 (gear) I don't fully agree with it.... It's true that you won't become X-games level snowboard just because you bought new gear but new gear can help you advance your skills and help you feel more comfortable on snow...

To prevent you from turning your torso the opposite way from the board my advice is to point your “ forward” arm towards the direction you like to go. This helps with learning to carve easier.

Don’t bomb runs. Practice carving. 5. Don’t go into the terrain park too soon. Focus on basic skills then hit tricks. 6. Don’t worry about what others think about your skill level or falling. 7.

The thing is that I don’t have that little high back loop that comes off the binding so I can’t hook my boot on my high back on the lift. They’re off brand they’re called symbolic bindings.

My first time ever snowboarding I went to the lift that took you to the very top of the mountain I didn’t know where I was going because my brother told me it was the easiest even tho I saw the map myself and saw that the easiest one was the other ski lifts I trusted him so I went ahead by myself because he had to stay back with his girlfriend so I get on barely being able to get on the ski lift lmao so I’m on this ski lift and about 10 minutes go by and I start freaking out because every time I see a hill i think it’s the last one eventually I make it to the very top of the mountain and I eat shit falling off the ski lift and just sit there contemplating wtf to do because it looks to steep and it was too narrow for my first go, mind you I’ve never been snowboarding and I haven’t even practiced on the board and I then I try calling my brother to tell them not to come up because I don’t even know how I’m gonna make it down eventually I grow some balls and go for it I’ve skateboarded before but I ate shit going down the first steep hill because I was scared then I picked it up pretty quickly all those years of power sliding paid off. when I was snowboarding on my way down I saw a snowmobile I thought it was for my them because I knew they wouldn’t come down if they’d gone up but my brother and his girl couldn’t get on because the employees wouldn’t let them on she couldn’t figure out how to put on the skis.
