The Justaride Snowboard Channel
Canada
Приєднався 24 лип 2016
Welcome to The Justaride Snowboard Channel!
The goal of my channel is to provide professional information around snowboarding and splitboarding.
I'll talk about gear, board design, board maintenance, different setup options, backcountry knowledge, general riding technique and fitness tips.
I started snowboarding in the spring of '93 and ticked a few boxes along the way.
Eleven years as a hardgoods buyer at EOW, Fernie have given me a good insight into the snowboarding industry.
I'm currently representing Stranda Snowboards sales in north America, while running my own tuning business.
An Austrian ISIA level snowboard instructor qualification got me into 12 seasons of teaching snowboarding in Europe.
The knowledge gained in multiple avalanche and backcountry classes including the CAA Avalanche Operations Level 1 helps me navigate the backcountry safely.
I'm lucky enough to ride 100+ days per season, and I live for the turn!

Mobility, strength and coordination to prepare for snowboarding season
WARNING: This video may potentially trigger seizures for people addicted to snowboard riding. Viewer discretion is advised. I loved this one, Lars! 👏🏻🔥❤
Where on earth is it THAT quiet around 9am, here in Zugspitzarena theres a line for the gondolas at 7:45 😮
For me, it’s a comfort thing. The toe straps in the early 90’s absolutely killed my feet. It’s probably specific to my feet, but I was in pain every day I rode until the cap strap came out. Instant relief! I switched and never looked back. Also, I’ve never had an issue with the cap strap moving on my boot. I view bindings the same as boots, it’s all personal preference and there’s no wrong way. My way works for me. Most importantly, find what works for you and then get out and ride!
If you don’t want the straps to flop on Now / Yes / Jones bindings, you can put a zip tie around the “hinge” part of the straps. Works well!
This is a quintessential Lost Horseman Expression Session, complete with groovin’ trip hop back beat. Your stoke is contagious!
Hahaha, yeah, I’m trying to have fun! 🤩
Lars, I've been watching this video and it's really enlightening. I was wondering about brass brush and stainless brush. What are they used for?
Mostly for cleaning the base prior to waxing. Stainless steel brush sounds aggressive. Never heard of that being used. I prefer fibertex pads for that.
@@Justaride-Snowboard-Channel Thank you. I like your advice and technique a lot. I have plenty of brushes but may buy a nylon one that is a bit larger for better coverage. I enjoy your videos, but particularly the ones about equipment, and fit. Thank you!!!
Darn it. I need a bigger mountain!
That is possible!
Love how the shot wraps around at 3:25, looks awesome 🔥
I really want that tree surfer as my powboard but the recommended minimum weight is 70kg for the 157cm one. I'm 61kg right now so im wondering if it is ok for me to purchase it.
Don't even worry about that! I think the weight range is off. I'm 62 Kg and ride the 162W, no issues! In case you end up buying and can't find a dealer, use my link! It gives me a small kick back. 🙂www.strandasnowboards.com/ref/878/
@Justaride-Snowboard-Channel what?! That is so good to hear, been drooling for tree surfer. Would use the link. Thank you very much!
@@ShuchiJita I'm serious. You'll be totally fine.
when you do the intro I often hear "I am Last Horseman" :D :D amazing vid as always!!
I am the last horse man!
I'm sorry but being from the United States your accent kind of sounds like your name is Lost Horseman, and I fully accepted it lol. It's Lars! I'm so silly Whats your last name?!
Lost Horseman is the best I've ever heard!! Love it! Hahahahaha..... It's Horstmann ;-)
@@Justaride-Snowboard-Channel sickkk glad you got a chuckle out of that =]
Turning/carving is great and all, but there are many more fun things to do on a snowboard. Carving only gets boring to me. Party boarding is my preference.
To each their own! 😄
what do you do for work? i’m curious how you balance things
I have a tiny little part time gig in an outdoor gear shop in the winter. Otherwise I run my little snowboard tuning business, the channel and help with Stranda sales in Canada. It's enough! Hahahaha.....
Another great clip. The coards carves and camera are amazing! Cheers!
That’s a gnarly half pipe they got there! 😅
hahahahaha, love it!
Still can't understand why people don't put the bar down. It's so weird to see compared to our European resorts.
They are uncomfortable. Only drop it for those who want it down
Why do you feel you need it
I hear ya! I normally put the bar down. This lift, however, has a spring loaded bar, which flips up when you don't push on it. It also doesn't have a foot rest that would be available to hold it down with the weight of your feet. So with this camera selfie stick that quickly became annoying, and I just left it up.
you heard this man and thought he wasn’t european ? 😂
@@cb.on.yt22 😅
Hi Lars! Great video! And I jave two questions, I would to buy a snowboard just for carving, I am 1.72m and 70kg, do you think is still ok the cheater or too big for me? Second, do I see T-plates risers in this video or others? I also onterested in those ;)
No risers under my feet! Cheater works for 70 Kg, for sure. Height is not an issue on a carving board... Longer board, longer edge, better grip.... It just can't be too stiff and you have to be past the sliding stage.,
so cool man so cool
now pipeliner pretty pls
Hi Lars, glad youre enjoying life :) How about a video abt. Bindings that are good for carving ?
Is that the standard selfie stick that comes with the insta360?
It's the 'Action' one. Carbon. 1m long.
@ only 1m? Wow. Ok thanks. Great video and I love your channel.
Thank you, this is a great video
It's really nice to be able to enjoy all types of snow conditions instead of being a snow snob. Hard pack day? Nice, carving day. Refrozen groomers? Nice, still carving day just need to change techniques a bit.
Looks awesome Lars! I love the spontaneous laugh around turn 54 and the smile in your face says it all. Fun! 😀
Turn 54 was a great turn! 😂
Love this, uploading a full run like that. I just ordered one of those cameras so i can share some turns myself and maybe create a channel! It almost never happens that i have someone available for and willing to film me so it seems to be by far the best and most versatile option the purpose
How to not slip out on icy surface?
sharpen those edges and maybe get an 88° angle instead of the usual 90. Also there are boards with disrupted sidecuts. Wont prevent all slipping but could help
Those Fernie cords look nice! 🏂👌
only 60 days? rookie
Yeah, out of what? 63? Hahaha....
Looking mighty good 👌
Thank you!
Lovely edge control.
Thank you!!
Can you make a video using posi posi in skied out powder and soft moguls? I am at location 90% of time the runs are not groomed like in this video.
I ride much less posi in the conditions you describe!! Different tools for different jobs!!
Lets go Lars. Im awaiting a 159 shorty so i can rip along
Amazing board!!
Ok, I bought a board made at the GP87. Its a weston backwoods. So a freeride/powder shape. I feel the quality of this board is very high. I checked my base for flatness after watching your videos. So the center of the board is very flat. But at my edges it looks like the base bevels off a little before the edge. At first I was disappointed but after further inspection it seems that this is very uniform on both edges from tip to tail. I feel as this might be intentional being a surfy powder shape. Have you seen anything like this before? My Jones storm wolf is the opposite mostly very flat. Except in the center right nefore the v in the tail it has a low point. I'm also not sure if this is intentional or not. I can't find documentation on that. I feel more confident that the weston is intentional over the Jones. Any thought on this?
Some Stranda boards have this, too. So far I've found it to be very mild and on snow it is better than the opposite, which makes a board feel 'grabby', if it's too significant. I think it's fine, and I wish I knew the reason for it.
When you're taught to keep your hands over the tip and tail of your board but your own experience tells you different, hearing someone explain the logic of your learning is sure validating. Thanks, Lars!
It all depends! In a symmetrical duck stance and a beginner lesson, the rider needs to learn foot steering. Everything I do would and could be considered wrong and counterproductive in that scenario. However, as you progress and depending on how far you want to go into a directional approach (carving/turning focused riding) you will eventually have to leave that position and start opening up and using the hips - and change your binding angles.... I wish people understood this nuance! There are different ways to ride a snowboard, and they all have advantages and disadvantages. :-)
Good one Lars! Clean video and comments, good lesson for us, good job for your sponsor. Thank you!👏🤩
Very kind of you to not judge me for talking about a product that helps me to make these videos and also helps me to fill my fridge to a marginal degree... Appreciate it!
Is the Makrill made in China?
Every Stranda is made at GP87, China! It might well be the best factory down there in regard to attention to detail and quality control.
curious if you ever tried the Jones TM2 boots with walk mode
No, I haven't on snow, just in a shop. It doesn't even come anywhere close to the ankle mobility and lateral support I get from this Atomic boot. You'd still be in a strap binding, too, which gives you that lateral movement within the binding. I get it, there's a bit of feel getting lost on the downhill, but for what I gain on the uphill there's no going back for me. It outweighs everything you might perceive as 'different or something to get used to' on the downhill.
would be cool to have a strong true camber board with a bar behind the rear binding (or between them) which can be put under tension to lift the tail to increase float. a bit like the hairpin trusses in old rickenbacker bases. i‘m pretty sure it has been tried by some brands. of course the tail would end up being progressively stiff but hey, i can‘t solve it all in a yt comment 😄
Hahahahaha......
First off, love the channel!! Great information you are bringing to the table. I’m torn between the 152/155 GNU Gremlin or the 154 Bataleon Beyond Medals. I am 5’10” tall, weigh 198 pounds and wear a size 10 boot. What are your recommendations? Any help is greatly appreciated. Can’t wait for more videos!!! 🙌🏼
Thanks! Those are both pretty soft for your weight. Take the stiffer one or get a Stranda Biru, which is the only stiffer short/fat I know of but also more expensive. Hard to say!
Thank you!!
@ in case you end up with a Biru and can't find a dealer, use this link! It helps me out a bit. www.strandasnowboards.com/ref/878/
Thanks man, cool vid! I remember renting BOA boots with one wheel and tightening it a few times during the first few runs. I thought I was doing something wrong. But with your explanation about friction, it all make sense now
What are your stance angles?
30/+12 on this one. Often 30/+9 or 27/+9 or 27/+6.... Depends on board and terrain. The more off piste and pow, the less extreme +/+.
I’ve been to Fernie 4 times, it’s one of my favourites.
Honestly, one of my favourite things is to mount my bindings, then watch a video, then proceed to dismount them and change angles or width 😅 The most informative channel in existence! Kudos for bringing this info for us all and thank you for inspiring me to mess around with my board 🏂🌞
Haha, awesome!! Thank you!
how many times can you sharpen snowboard edges before they wear out?
@@ivanstarkov never counted, but it’s a lot…..
Hey Lars, I am new to the waxing world, which video from your channel do you recommend I follow if I want to do a full new board? (I just bought a Stranda Biru, Mats recommended I do a proper wax job, and am hoping to take it out on some powder days this weekend). Thank you again for all this content, it is super helpful! (Is this the one? ua-cam.com/video/ji0zTRZBJCk/v-deo.htmlfeature=shared)
@@mayankgupta716 yup! That’s it!
Another reason for volume shift is my case; I’m fairly heavy and have very short legs. The relatively narrow reference stance combined with higher weight range really works for people like me
What’s the concern with drying out the base with base cleaner literally right before you wax it? Base cleaner just seems like a real easy way to get stuff off the base before applying fresh wax… I imagine grease and old wax being on the base probably makes the new wax less durable since it’s getting applied on top of a dirty base… makes more sense to apply fresh wax on a clean and dry base so the base gets fully saturated with the new wax imo.
Yeah, you're right. My base stays pretty clean, because I wax often. So that's my way... But if you don't wax that often, maybe cleaning beforehand is good. I just wouldn't do it, if it's not needed.
How would you do base bevel to a Jones MT when it's rider wants to do boardslides on PVC tubes without catching an edge? The same board is used for all-mountain riding often on hard pack and icy slopes and the guy riding it is pretty experienced liking high speed carving as well. I've already filed base edge to 1 degree even though based on your other video it's not true what Jones web page claims it being 0 degree.
@@willywombat9542 well….. can’t have a Ferrari Pickup Truck. 🤷♂️
@ Lol maybe I'm looking Cybertruck solution then. As I recall e.g. Salomon Assassin comes nowadays from factory having base bevel 1 in contact points but 3 in the middle for freestyle riding.
@ that’s odd. Not sure about that.
@@Justaride-Snowboard-Channel I checked and Salomon says in Assassin's specs: Freestyle EB: Equipped from the factory with a 2-degree bevel around the nose and tail and a 3-degree bevel between the feet, providing a balance of edge hold and forgiveness on rails.
@ oh, I didn't doubt that that was true! It's just a park tune! You don't want to ride icy groomers with 2 and 3 degree base bevels!!!
Rocker is definitely funner gor buttering and playing around. But for bombing hills i prefer camber in the middle and rocker under the bindings. But shit ill ride anything and have fun! Rocker for deep pow as well is what i prefer. But thats all it is, preference.
Eeeeew! Here comes the snow - finally. A little dump coming to the Kootenays! Thanks Lars for sharing your expertise.
