- Hi. Found this hill meandering and randomly and it was absolutely perfect. Like the story of the 3 bears: this was not too steep, not too flat, but just right.
It’s cool that it’s about a 24 foot wide (7m) and no cars as well if I go to previous intersection-probably get to 30 mph? So stoked to finding this hill.

Hell yeah
I remember years ago when learning to snowboard, an old hand said - remember that speed is your friend, but too much speed is like having a really drunk friend at a party; it can all go sideways very quickly!
Keep up the good work!
That’s a great comparison and thank you. Yes, unfortunately went too fast without control, but glad I slowed it down to learn the necessary skills…and now slowly speeding up. And thank you for the encouragement. 🙇🏻♂️🤘
Looks like your muscle memory is also improving, getting more control.
@@KaikoSean yes-thanks. Still a little nervous my first one(each session), but after that-just repetition. Really focusing on aiming my precarve and working on bringing hips closer to centerline of board, bending back right knee/tuck more, but it’ll happen in time.
Slides are looking good…
Thank you. Enjoying every practice more now because it’s getting to be muscle memory. So fun.
This hill is perfect for learning slides!
Thanks. Something that no one really talks about is what is a good hill? At least for noobs-new to dh. Stoked to have found it. Looking forward to getting my buddy on it, too.
@@cantskate5535 Yeah, it's awesome to learn slides on a straight, wide hill with good pavement and a medium slope grade. Bonus points if there's little traffic.
You have about the right amount of t of speed to bring the board back under you on all slides there.
Thanks. Feels just right. And I can go faster if I go to previous intersection. Stoked!
