Trying to do 360s on jumps/ side hits but I figured I better start with Ollies and 180s first. So this is a footage of some of my better attempts.
Not sure if I’m having proper technique as I feel like I’m not getting off the ground enough?
How much of this is attributable to my setup? Currently 67kg riding Ride moderator 155cm. Would using a lighter board such as capital DOA be easier?
TIA!
So I'm getting back into snowboarding and I think I'm going to get a new board. I'm riding a K2 slay blade from ~2012 and I think a newer board could be more fun. I don't hit the park, don't ride switch, mostly hitting groomers at my small ski area (feels weird calling that little thing a resort), will head to bigger places 2-3 times a season, enjoy getting some speed, and I really would like to get better at carving. I'm 5'10", 160lbs without gear, size 10 boot, ride medium/lg bindings (rome katana fase).
When looking for boards I came across the Korua Apollo and then the pencil. Seems like the pencil could be a good fit potentially and I really like the ideas behind the unique Apollo but admittedly I'm not that skilled of a rider.
Would love any thoughts or recommendations.
I found a mystery snowboard in my garage and know absolutely nothing about snowboarding. Anyone know anything about this board?
Noob here. I’m seeing a very good deal on a Burton Cartographer and want to get one. I’m leaning towards the 159 because I’m 6 feet tall, around 180 pounds. The question is the width. My shoe size is US 11, and I think my boot size is likely to be 10.5, but I’m such a noob that I don’t know it exactly.
The regular has a waist width of 258, the wide 266. Which one should I get?
These clips are from the end of my 1st day on rails.
Can anyone give me some tips.
I am purposely going slower to work on balance.
New to their lineup, I was considering the Rome Katanas but after a lot of research and thought, ordered the Volt, new to their lineup but much more suited to an advanced beginner approaching intermediate.
Can’t wait to get on the slopes!
