To everyone who’s struggling just like me. I am now in Finland snowboarding for the third day, and I have just started my day, but had to enter a random restaurant after couple of runs just to get wifi to write this lol I was practicing carving taking all Malcolms tips but still falling and losing my balance until I saw this video last night before I sleep and today I started doing what he explained in this video and I finally made it! To everyone: it will take time.. just practice, and do not compare yourself to anyone else because everyone has his own ability. To Malcolm: thank you so much for your videos. I have watched a lot but yours are truly the best. Good luck!
Nice to see a youtuber being considerate as well for other people on the piste. So often we see pros behaving like they own the place...a great example.
Had a lesson from Malcolm today to fix these points . Im 49 and started late . A combination of his lessons and watching his videos has transformed my riding. Thanks so much . See you next year.
At 46 years old, I am back on the slopes and I love it, but I know my technique needs a lot of work. An injury and an ER trip took me off the slopes many years ago and life just wasn't complete without riding. Your videos look to be just what I needed, so I just subscribed. Spring is here in the northeast US, but the slopes are still open for a little while. I am going to practice these things as much as I can and come out strong next season. Thank you for what you are doing here, it is a great service for us all!
Every season, after a snowboarding day, I'm watching your videos to get my technique improved for the next day. Just focusing on one topic at the time. It does MAGIC. I really really love the way of explanation, always sharp and focused. THANKS A LOT!!!
This is great. I also had that skidding problem when going from toes to heel edge. Thanks! Though I wish you would show the correct way a bit more too so the difference can be clearly seen.
Me too! Last weekend was my first time. Watched a few videos but only found Malcolm on my way back to Tokyo. Realised that everything I did was my wrong understanding of physics. This weekend was my 2nd time riding and binged most of Malcolm’s beginner videos. I went from falling all the time to actually riding and leaving a somewhat clean pencil line. The gear I rented was pretty bad the 2nd weekend which hindered my posture.
Holy hell! I've been trying to find out why majority of my turns end up skidding. I knew it was something I'm doing wrong when changing my edge, but couldnt tell/see/feel what. In the middle of both of your examples I had an "Oooooooh!" moments. When rewatching the recordings NOW I see the problem. You're THE person to watch Malcolm!
Malcolm! Kudos to your lessons! About 2 weeks before going I was informed after an MRI, I have a bunch of bulging discs on my spine. So my aim was: not fall and learn to remain in control, speed was a plan B, the plan A: weight shift, carve and be in control. And it came after a few days. Especially that counter rotation toe turn. Took work but you seriously helped. Thanks and hopefully one day will get a lesson with ya if i'm in the same resort. But yeh, this year got my knees bent and lead knee working. Was a sorta light bulb.going off got quick turns for fun ans then got closer to.carving with reducing skids. Getting used to weight shif. Kudos my man!
Second time snowboarding and I'm about to fly home tomorrow and this finally explains why my toe to heel change kept skidding. Thanks man you've made me a ten times better snowboarder with your videos
Great explanation and denonstration. Ive been suffering with the slide on the toe to heel for a long time (and not been abe to self rectify or work out why). Your explanation and great camera angle solved the mystery for me instantly. Annoying that I have to wait until next season now to put it into practise. Cheers
Great one, I sometimes struggle transition from toes to heels because my weight stays( not intentionally) a bit more on the back foot. And then I am not kicking the back foot but going too long accelerating before I can start gripping and that too much speed mess up my next edge change
It took me a lot of time when learning to snowboard on my own that I was making these typical mistakes and 'throwing' the back of the board with each turn as I was almost swiping the slope. 1h with instructor who did a reality check on me changed a lot. I really enjoy watching this movie now and realizing that perfection is a goal but practice is the most important part and results will come. Thanks Malcolm for creating such content.
Question: if you arent comfortable going too fast.. how can you keep your speed down without sliding the board out to slow yourself down? This is what i find myself doing just to try to control my speed on steeper slopes.
If you aren't comfortable going fast, simply stay off the steeper slopes. Don't feel like you have to do blues and blacks. There is a ski area in Colorado called Buttermilk, known as a beginner mountain with wide open, gentle slopes. Expert hardbooters favor that mountain to rip pure carved turns.
Thank you for your advice. Everything makes sense now. I knew I was doing something wrong, but since I never took any lessons, and often ride alone. It was hard to pinpoint what I was doing wrong. The way you demonstrate and explain the cause of skidding is simple but effective. I started with a hybrid board so it is very easy for me to turn, but I have had a couple of bad edge accidents so I probably ended up pushing the tail subconsciously to prevent that instead of working on my turns. It is going to be hard to fix this bad habit, but at least I know where to start. Thank you!
Hey Malcolm just wanted to say thanks for these videos. They are helping me a lot. You are the best youtuber at explaining snowboard technique. Thank you! ❤
The problem for me riding while trying to use only the edges is that i start riding to fast and very insecure, that force me to skid. Definetly I need more practice, thank you for all your tips!!!
Same with me as well. I end up true int up the slope and come into a stand still. Or I turn out so that I slide down until I reach a point I feel comfortable to continue at.
When truly carving, the forces generated through turns can become so great that a regular snowboard will twist and deform , creating edge release and chatter, on any run steeper than beginner. A skilled rider may get a few clean carve turns on an intermediate slope before going way too fast for the board. Sliding turns are normal and done by every pro on intermediate and advanced runs. This video is talking about turn shape improving when we move weight from edge to edge with hips vs shoulders.
@@StompedAgain Good to know. Most of my turns include the slide, as I board in the Northeast as weekend warrior. If I big carve and just keep the speed w/o the slip, the speed I achieve gets WAAAY too fast. Narrow slopes too, with lots of ice. I tend to speed check a lot in short back and forths AND scrub speed during turns. Bombing down the slopes here, equate to a 30 second ride.
This has gotta be one of the best tutorial vids I've seen, thanks! I've had a problem the past 2 seasons where my carves are perfect on shallow slopes, yet on steeper slopes my toe carves are good but my heel carves are skiddy and i side slide down the mountain. This has the knock on effect of burning my thighs out after a few hours due to the tension. I've watched hundreds of videos with no luck. Anyway, today was my first time snowboarding after seeing the video and it has pretty much fixed the issue. And my thighs were much less sore. Tomorrow I'll continue to work on it. Nice one! 🙌🔥
The second one is exactly what I´ve been strugling with. I´ll start practising the right way of doing it more strongly tomorrow! Thanks once more for your great videos.
Awesome tips. One more thing to consider: Weight balance between front and back foot. If you lean on your front foot, your back foot is going to slide! Instead stay centered or lean a little on your back foot. This plus what Malcom explains about the hip and weight shift over the board and you're carving!
Awesome video. I agree the beginning of each carve is just as important as the end. I was taught that u can turn the whole board apply pressure using only heels and big toes and just swiveling knees to arc perfect S shaped carves Your edge to edge transitions are beautiful tho, iv never ridden a board that stiff or sharp to make it look that pretty!! I can just tell it didn't even chatter on hard pack
I see a lot of videos trying to enforce non-skid turns. I know on steeps skidded turns can be necessary, but on regular piste are we supposed to carve just because it's more proper, or is there a physiological reason like better energy conservation?
Carving is more fun. It's a better sensation. You get on the rail, and the ride smooths out and you experience more g's on the same terrain. It's like riding a roller coaster compared to going down a plastic kiddie slide (skidded turns).
I've had a lesson with Malcolm. No 1 instructor in alpe d'huez. Told me at the time he was going to start up with the channel and hes even better live. Keep it up dude 💪
I always check and recheck vidros like this! Awesome, four years snowboarding trying always to get that smooth S nomatter what the slope. I often think i am about to sit on a swing seat when i do heel turns, really commit. So far so good, heel turns are now my favourite. Love this video
Great explanation and corrections. I'm guilty of both. I lean back mostly in my toe-to-heel trying to control my speed. It fails me, when I hit ice patches. Thank you
I mean it’s mostly the lack of customization that’ll get ya. Not setting stance wide to be comfortable for example. A board in poor condition won’t serve anyone well that much is obvious but honestly most of the rentals i’ve seen have been mediocre.
Yes as said above it is mostly lack of customisation. The rental boards tend to be ok maintained but not very flexible or 'poppy' so I found them not so responsive or fun to ride compared to the boards I now have. Also When I started I didn't know about angles and stance with so when I was first learning (being a tall long legged guy) it was all completely wrong from the rental shop but I didn't realise that was part of the problem until I had my own board to tinker with!
My first time I rode the rental gear was pretty good compared to my 2nd time at a different place. Which was mostly directed towards beginners. For one The boots couldn’t tighten at the shins so that forced me into using bad habits that I wanted to get rid of especially on toe edge turns. And made me fall a few times because of delay in edge turns. Definitely want to get my own gear but my apartment is pretty small here in Tokyo.
@@Mw_kwakhad the same experience. And also living in tokyo :P tbh, I’m tempted to buy my own boots at least this season as the difference between boot tightness and comfort is the most noticeable. Boards and bindings can be adjusted, I’m often adjusting my stance and angles to the conditions. The rental place can do it, or on the mountain there’s always a screwdriver at the lifts/gondolas and also work benches if needed. If lucky, you can get some boards with hybrid profiles to try, but most are rocker dominant. Some rental places will even let you try different boards each day, and wax, so that helps a lot in gaining the knowledge and your preferences before a purchase. It’s important to make a mental note all the characteristics of your gear that you lean towards. I highly recommend trying different boards on different days if you can, if they are vaguely similar, e.g same size and profile, then that helps narrow down the other differences such as flex etc.
Yessss I am definitely guilty of this, I have been boarding a few years now but still use my back foot like a handbrake on steeper slopes. I'm going to Alp d'Huez on 27th Jan maybe see ya out there!
Thanks so much for this. I kick my back foot out when I'm not feeling it. It's such an obvious thing when you see it being demoed and explains why when I've got my flow right turns are easy but when I'm not on it or I'm rushing things I end up kicking my leg out. I'm worse on flatter stuff at doing that where I'm so worried about catching an edge that I end up with unintentional speed checks when I'm just trying to get a turn in.
So many good videos! This is one is really a classic bad habit that riders take with them for many years, and don't realize how wasteful it is in terms of energy/conservation of momentum (not to mention loss of control). One side effect of doing what Malcolm describes here, is you'll tend to get tired in your back leg's upper quad as you overuse it to kick the board tail back and forth on edge changes. That, and leaning too far back (check your stance!) are often the cause.
Awesome. I'm always impressed with how good your heelside turns look. Most people look like they're sitting down on the toilet aka the dreaded poo man in surfing which is kindof hard to avoid on a snowboard since you have to somewhat squat (vs lunge) if you ride duck stance at least. You also seem to be somewhat forward facing in your stance and lean backwards both of which seems to help keep you stacked over the board. Would be super interesting to have a video on that topic. I'm trying to make my turns look like yours. Thanks Malcolm!
Malcom, I just love your videos, thanks!! You just properly described in this video the two biggest issues I still have as well and had during my last week snowboard vacation... I always "kick out" the board when comming from toe edge to heal edge (goofy rider) because I'm to late with the proper edge change... I'm going to work on doing my edge changes more properly and early enough and getting my weight on the right edge in time to be stable on the board and to keep the momentum in the right direction..
Another great video, I do the heel to toe with the counter rotation..I know I do it and have been working on it (mainly thanks to your vids about getting hips over...that made such a difference) I am now much better and it feels sooooo smooth and nice..however..I still counter rotate when I get caught out and rush the turn..either because I misjudged where the edge of piste was and need to turn faster or a skier turned into where I was going to turn...any tips for speeding up the turn for avoiding things without counter rotation?
Great videos and thanks for sharing the knowledge. I did have one question, what if you are trying to slow down on those S turns, I would assume you would then swing your board out in order to slow down. Is that considered skidding out? Seems to me like if you are doing perfect and tight S Turns, you would end up catching a lot of speed, and sometimes that may not be your intention either. If that makes sense?
Dear Malcom, thank you for always putting out so much great content. I haven't snowboarded this season yet, but will be in a week from now. Since I have exactly this second mistake you mention in this video, now I have what I want to work on this season. I think in my case it comes from the fact that in the beginning I fell often on the back due to edge catching on the heelside edge, so i learned it the wrong way. Toe side turn is no problem, I can do a clean carve turn.
Can you demonstrate that smooth arc thing without the counter rotation mistake on a double black pitch full of moguls for me please... Not on a green run where speed increase isn't critical
Wow. This is exactly my problem. Malcolm, you PERFECTLY described the biggest issue I'm struggling with. However, my issue is that when I do achieve smooth edge changes, and keep my momentum across the slope, I just keep building and building speed until I'm going way too fast. If I don't skid, my speed just seems to exponentially increase. To slow down, I was told to cut up the mountain, but then the board is facing up the mountain which makes the next edge change that much more difficult to engage because I have to do a much larger, wider turn to get going in the other direction.
Hi Malcolm. Off boarding for the first time for 12 years (kids and life you know). Have been watching all your excellent videos to brush up and the one that really interests me is your method using a ski pole. I really want to try this but the likelihood is the mrs won't let me use her pole. Thinking about buying the Insta360 X3 on your link. Tell me, would the stick part of this device double up as a good ski pole to do that exercise? A vid showing this would be brilliant - if possible. Pete
Annnnd just shreding at the end like it's nothing!! A freaking love it!! Also you are an amazing teacher I'm about to go snowboarding for the first time and now I'm watching all your videos.
I went snowboarding the other day, i have been applying your tips and i can tell that i have definetely improved my riding a lot and i could finally fully enjoy the session 🔥
Im training with my bad foot forward and it always feels kinda awkward. You explain exacly my problem thanks! Gonna try this next week when im on the board :D
Hi Malcolm, longtime viewer of your amazing channel, you have really boosted my riding over the years! However even though my snowboarding is getting better and better and I’m finally able to carve, I am still scared of going fast. I haven’t seen a video from you about that yet, about fear or insecurities, not just for beginners, would be great if you could make a video and help with that!! Cheers
Great explanation as always Malcom! I understand there are different ways to perform the edge change and that all of them imply (if done correctly) a shift of the center of gravity. My question is (and this is coming from a begginer) to perform the edge change from toe side to heel side (which is the one I strugle the most) should I try to get my weight more on the front foot, allow the board to flatten and then engage the heel side? Regards from Portugal!
I kept falling over today then I changed to what he’s doing in the video and i went a few runs without catching an edge while turning. Another thing that also helped was making sure about 60% of your weight is on ur front foot otherwise you don’t have as much control and can’t change ur centre of gravity easily. Malcom you and Tommie Bennett’s videos have helped me learn to snowboard by myself it’s my first season I’ve improved so much in 4 days hopefully I’ll be somewhat intermediate by the end!
These instructional videos are brilliant. Thank you for making such great content that really provides fantastic information to help improve boarding, really appreciated.
Is it still a mistake if you're trying to brake/speed check, or if you need to change the direction of the board quickly? I think I end up doing this on steeper moguly slopes where I'm not comfortable pointing the board straight down, or am going very slowly and need to go the other direction.
How do you like that board? Getting back into riding after many years not doing so. Heading to Colorado in a few weeks. I’m sure I’ll become obsessed again and I’ll be looking to upgrade my gear.
Great vid man! I need your advice with something. Im looking for a cheaper (sh if possible) second board. My main is a freeride so am looking at something shorter wider and fun. You have had both the Dancehaul and the Warpig, which would you recommend? And any other recommendations? Cheers dude and thanks for the free lessons you put out!
Hey Malcom I love the content long time watcher here, you’ve helped me quite a bit in perfecting my riding technique over the years thank you! One thing I’m always amazed at in your videos is how clear the slopes are, a lot of times I HAVE to make a skidded turn to avoid the obstacle in my path so my technique kinda goes to shit
I am facing same problem, loads of mounds on the piste and only hard surface left so only thing I can so is skid and do falling leaf. So frusfrating I can'z partice carved and gripped turns. That's in nassfeld, austria.
Yeah I have to pick when I film, early season is normally good, try to avoid weekends. This was filmed just the other day here in Alpe d'Huez, it was so busy for new year but the following week completely empty with perfect conditions!!
Amazing explanation! Is it more difficult getting your centre of mass over the board if you are a lighter or heavier person? I am pretty lightweight weighing only 58kgs
I like the angle from overhead! Often time I find it hard to visualize the movement of back leg because the back leg is hidden behind the front leg. Can you film the video more often from the overhead angle? I believe it’d be helpful to demonstrate your movement from multiple angles ❤
I used to be VERY tired after a day of boarding and I used to do exactly that, pushing the board around. Now with using the “leg levers” I have so much more control and I can go for 33km a day. But, my turns facing to the valley are still skidded in some conditions. I know what I’m doing wrong but it’s frustrating not seeing change. Just got back from wintersports so I can’t apply this video for another year😢 Thanks Malcolm for pushing my skills forward 😊
Looking really forward to applying this to my own riding in three weeks... this is exactly what I've been doing all along (toe and heel edge) and was wondering how I can get the board to grip and carve. Question, though: How exactly does the pop of the board factor into this? From what I understand it helps you "lift" yourself and shift the hips over from back to front side and vice versa, doesnt it? Also, thanks for the insta promo link! Was really happy to get the cam with this meaty discount, thus relieving my old GoPro 3 from duty :D
thanks for this simple, yet impactful video. Question, you mention the different types of edge changes like up-unweighted, down-unweighted, retraction turns, and knee steering, but I thought that knee-steering was foundational/how you get the board to change edges and things like up/down unweighted and retraction turns were other tactics for different riding styles, per say. in order words, up and down unweighted and retraction turns used torsional flex. is that not correct? maybe i misunderstood your point in the video?
I need to force myself to do this. Just did my first week and i was very happy with my progress but i make this mistake quite a often when it gets a bit steaper. Going to practice this indoor next weekend. Also, where is this filmed? Looks amazing!
Hi Malcolm, thanks to you I really improved my riding, thank you. I even watch your videos on the lifts :) Recently I observed big issue with my riding: I change my egde when board is perpendicular to the slope but I still have to fight for the grip. My problem is I gain way to much momentum on the one edge (during the turn), then I make a change and if I will start making arc right away I will more often then not start to skid because my momentum is pushing me to the side of the piste and to counter that I have to apply enormous pressure on the front foot (like 80% of the distribution) to hold the clean line. Even that fails most of the time, so I skid a bit, lose speed, and then board is able to grip again. This happens a lot if piste is icy and/or steeper. Could it be caused by the board beeing too short? Do I need longer effective edge/sharper board?
This is exactly what I’m doing wrong - my edgechanges are always skidded - especially on red slopes. This never happens in mellow slopes like green. Thank you so much for your videos Malcom!
Loving your videos, your recent one on carving raising the opposite arm, really really helped and improved my riding. Are you still at Klien? Can you offer any recommendations about where to stay, etc, maybe a type of tour guide video, just a thought, it looks fantastic and if funds allow I would love to go there later in the season. Thanks
Hi Malcolm, loving the videos and have been watching many and taking tips. Intermediate rider here. I wondered if you can help however. I’m constantly in pain with leg muscles, and it’s generally my calves, in particular my back calf. I’ve tried all sorts, new boots, new bindings, different stand widths, angles of bindings, I’m now day 6 of my snowboarding holiday and I’ve had to take a day off because my Calves are soooo sore. Is this common or not? I noticed at the beginning of the week that I was leaning more on my toes when on my toe edge which is why I believe my calves were hurting before, but I’ve made a conscious effort this past 3 days to push my knees out more and hips, but my calves are still causing me to stop every 30-40 seconds so I can rest them… any help would be so amazing? I want to have fun but I feel like the fun is being taken out of it due to pain!
All good Malcolm but what would be useful is a graphic layer on top of this video where you are shifting weight from toe to heel and vice-versa on your turns as this would help immensely. Thanks :)
Loving the videos, all ive been watching for the last week 💪 Having learnt & only ever been indoor boarding, next week im letting loose on real snow 🎉🎉. Can you possibly do a guide on the different set up stances & what's best for those of us more comfortable riding regular as opposed to switch etc?
Hi Malcom, Ive been riding a Dada for a few seasons and am curious about your Biru - I found the Dada lacking on edge hold for fast carves and high speed, but great in powder in the trees. Am interested in the Biru as well, with the idea that it is a torsionally stiffer / higher speed Dada
I learned how to do a more proper edge turn by practicing on my e-scooter, standing sideways on it and shifting my hips/knees/heel&toe pressure from side to side as I keep the handlebars straight. Weird but works!
@malcolmmoore: Could you tie these concepts together with the ones from the “the very simple theory of good snowboarding” video for steepish terrain with moguls? I am struggling with these on my toe turn on steepish terrain with moguls as I panic and try to change edge before pointing down the inertia/fall line and avoid keeping the directional momentum of the turn. Instead, i force my board to change sides and I just skid down, which takes me into the next hole of the moguls and completely destabilizes me. This happens turning from the heel edge to the toe edge turn mostly.
Fantastic content as usual. Your videos have been invaluable to someone who has come back to snowboarding after 20 years. What can be done for someone like myself who feels “stuck” when transitioning from heel side to toe side?
If you mean that you're pointed down the fall line and can't get the board turned cross-piste on the toe edge, then he has a video about imaging two levels coming out from your boots and you push the levers to shift from heel to toe and vice versa. It could be that you need to bend your knees a bit more and shift your hips to the toe side. A problem I had in the beginning was I was hinging at my waist and bending over instead of pushing my hips forward. Something an experienced friend of mine said was: Stand like a cowboy, knees bent and pushed sideways. When you want to go toe side, pretend like you're trying to piss over a log (push hips forward).
Hi Malcolm. I noticed you are using Stranda Biru here, I'm interesting in buing one for myself. Do you like it? Will it be good for carving and fast ride, or raher it fits for fun ride (freestyle, butter, etc.)
I have a technical question: I can see that you are using the full width of the piste in this video, and that it is very quiet too. How can I bring this technique into my riding on a narrow piste when it is busy and you have to dodge other people?
How do you keep going straight on a long flat piste going towards chair lift that is rutted and full of ridges? I fell 3 over times couldn’t keep it flat catching an edge 😢 any tips thanks
To everyone who’s struggling just like me. I am now in Finland snowboarding for the third day, and I have just started my day, but had to enter a random restaurant after couple of runs just to get wifi to write this lol I was practicing carving taking all Malcolms tips but still falling and losing my balance until I saw this video last night before I sleep and today I started doing what he explained in this video and I finally made it! To everyone: it will take time.. just practice, and do not compare yourself to anyone else because everyone has his own ability. To Malcolm: thank you so much for your videos. I have watched a lot but yours are truly the best. Good luck!
Thank you so much!!!! 😊🫶🙌
That's awesome mate. Gona start getting into it with my 7 year Old daughter. Respect to Malcolm
All the best !! I am in the same boat in Colorado👋
Crazy how he can give such an explanation in just 1 take. Looks to be typical for some of the best UA-camrs.
Thanks 😃😃
I was thinking that, all that in one take
He really understands snowboarding principles!
Nice to see a youtuber being considerate as well for other people on the piste. So often we see pros behaving like they own the place...a great example.
I agree. Great info and very well presented. The edge changes are the key to snowboarding imo.
Had a lesson from Malcolm today to fix these points . Im 49 and started late . A combination of his lessons and watching his videos has transformed my riding. Thanks so much . See you next year.
47 yr old female......rookie on month 2 of riding every weekend. We Gen Xers are built different.....
I'm 48 years old and started last year, still beginner but I just love it!
Just got back from Val Thorens and enjoyed some great snowboarding. 👍have to wait until next year now 😪
At 46 years old, I am back on the slopes and I love it, but I know my technique needs a lot of work. An injury and an ER trip took me off the slopes many years ago and life just wasn't complete without riding. Your videos look to be just what I needed, so I just subscribed. Spring is here in the northeast US, but the slopes are still open for a little while. I am going to practice these things as much as I can and come out strong next season. Thank you for what you are doing here, it is a great service for us all!
Every season, after a snowboarding day, I'm watching your videos to get my technique improved for the next day.
Just focusing on one topic at the time. It does MAGIC. I really really love the way of explanation, always sharp and focused.
THANKS A LOT!!!
Malcolm Moore's channel is the best one out here for snowboarding. Absolutely skilled teacher! Thank you!
Thanks so much 😃😃
This is great. I also had that skidding problem when going from toes to heel edge. Thanks!
Though I wish you would show the correct way a bit more too so the difference can be clearly seen.
I just started riding this season and have been working on fixing these mistakes, especially for toes to heels. Thanks for the helpful video!
Me too! Last weekend was my first time. Watched a few videos but only found Malcolm on my way back to Tokyo. Realised that everything I did was my wrong understanding of physics.
This weekend was my 2nd time riding and binged most of Malcolm’s beginner videos. I went from falling all the time to actually riding and leaving a somewhat clean pencil line. The gear I rented was pretty bad the 2nd weekend which hindered my posture.

In the middle of both of your examples I had an "Oooooooh!" moments.
When rewatching the recordings NOW I see the problem. You're THE person to watch Malcolm!
Haha thanks so much 😊🫶🏽
Malcolm! Kudos to your lessons! About 2 weeks before going I was informed after an MRI, I have a bunch of bulging discs on my spine. So my aim was: not fall and learn to remain in control, speed was a plan B, the plan A: weight shift, carve and be in control. And it came after a few days. Especially that counter rotation toe turn. Took work but you seriously helped. Thanks and hopefully one day will get a lesson with ya if i'm in the same resort. But yeh, this year got my knees bent and lead knee working. Was a sorta light bulb.going off got quick turns for fun ans then got closer to.carving with reducing skids. Getting used to weight shif. Kudos my man!
Second time snowboarding and I'm about to fly home tomorrow and this finally explains why my toe to heel change kept skidding. Thanks man you've made me a ten times better snowboarder with your videos
5 seasons of always feeling something’s wrong with my turns/carving. This explanation finally puts that feeling into words. God damn.
Great explanation and denonstration. Ive been suffering with the slide on the toe to heel for a long time (and not been abe to self rectify or work out why). Your explanation and great camera angle solved the mystery for me instantly. Annoying that I have to wait until next season now to put it into practise. Cheers
Great one, I sometimes struggle transition from toes to heels because my weight stays( not intentionally) a bit more on the back foot. And then I am not kicking the back foot but going too long accelerating before I can start gripping and that too much speed mess up my next edge change
It took me a lot of time when learning to snowboard on my own that I was making these typical mistakes and 'throwing' the back of the board with each turn as I was almost swiping the slope. 1h with instructor who did a reality check on me changed a lot. I really enjoy watching this movie now and realizing that perfection is a goal but practice is the most important part and results will come. Thanks Malcolm for creating such content.
Question: if you arent comfortable going too fast.. how can you keep your speed down without sliding the board out to slow yourself down? This is what i find myself doing just to try to control my speed on steeper slopes.
Im doing the same thing.. my palms were sweating watching after 8:00 >_< too fast for me
If you aren't comfortable going fast, simply stay off the steeper slopes. Don't feel like you have to do blues and blacks. There is a ski area in Colorado called Buttermilk, known as a beginner mountain with wide open, gentle slopes. Expert hardbooters favor that mountain to rip pure carved turns.
Thank you for your advice. Everything makes sense now. I knew I was doing something wrong, but since I never took any lessons, and often ride alone. It was hard to pinpoint what I was doing wrong. The way you demonstrate and explain the cause of skidding is simple but effective. I started with a hybrid board so it is very easy for me to turn, but I have had a couple of bad edge accidents so I probably ended up pushing the tail subconsciously to prevent that instead of working on my turns. It is going to be hard to fix this bad habit, but at least I know where to start. Thank you!
You're welcome 🤗🤗 happy to help
Hey Malcolm just wanted to say thanks for these videos. They are helping me a lot. You are the best youtuber at explaining snowboard technique. Thank you! ❤
My pleasure!
Thanks Malcolm for those videos, really helpful.
Many thanks, and I appreciate the tip 🙏
A real professionnal, always looking the upper slope, just in case and stopping at safe places 👍👍👍👍👍
The problem for me riding while trying to use only the edges is that i start riding to fast and very insecure, that force me to skid. Definetly I need more practice, thank you for all your tips!!!
Same with me as well. I end up true int up the slope and come into a stand still. Or I turn out so that I slide down until I reach a point I feel comfortable to continue at.
Yeah speed control has been an issue for me as well. I've recently progressed from panicking and stopping completely to doing speed checks
When truly carving, the forces generated through turns can become so great that a regular snowboard will twist and deform , creating edge release and chatter, on any run steeper than beginner. A skilled rider may get a few clean carve turns on an intermediate slope before going way too fast for the board. Sliding turns are normal and done by every pro on intermediate and advanced runs. This video is talking about turn shape improving when we move weight from edge to edge with hips vs shoulders.
@@StompedAgain Good to know. Most of my turns include the slide, as I board in the Northeast as weekend warrior. If I big carve and just keep the speed w/o the slip, the speed I achieve gets WAAAY too fast. Narrow slopes too, with lots of ice. I tend to speed check a lot in short back and forths AND scrub speed during turns. Bombing down the slopes here, equate to a 30 second ride.
This has gotta be one of the best tutorial vids I've seen, thanks! I've had a problem the past 2 seasons where my carves are perfect on shallow slopes, yet on steeper slopes my toe carves are good but my heel carves are skiddy and i side slide down the mountain. This has the knock on effect of burning my thighs out after a few hours due to the tension. I've watched hundreds of videos with no luck. Anyway, today was my first time snowboarding after seeing the video and it has pretty much fixed the issue. And my thighs were much less sore. Tomorrow I'll continue to work on it. Nice one! 🙌🔥
The second one is exactly what I´ve been strugling with. I´ll start practising the right way of doing it more strongly tomorrow! Thanks once more for your great videos.
Awesome tips. One more thing to consider: Weight balance between front and back foot. If you lean on your front foot, your back foot is going to slide! Instead stay centered or lean a little on your back foot.
This plus what Malcom explains about the hip and weight shift over the board and you're carving!
Awesome video. I agree the beginning of each carve is just as important as the end. I was taught that u can turn the whole board apply pressure using only heels and big toes and just swiveling knees to arc perfect S shaped carves
Your edge to edge transitions are beautiful tho, iv never ridden a board that stiff or sharp to make it look that pretty!! I can just tell it didn't even chatter on hard pack
I see a lot of videos trying to enforce non-skid turns. I know on steeps skidded turns can be necessary, but on regular piste are we supposed to carve just because it's more proper, or is there a physiological reason like better energy conservation?
Carving is more fun. It's a better sensation. You get on the rail, and the ride smooths out and you experience more g's on the same terrain. It's like riding a roller coaster compared to going down a plastic kiddie slide (skidded turns).
I've had a lesson with Malcolm. No 1 instructor in alpe d'huez. Told me at the time he was going to start up with the channel and hes even better live. Keep it up dude 💪
Excellent explanation - I wish I had snow like that when I was learning. New England ice hills make it hard to trust an edge!
I always check and recheck vidros like this! Awesome, four years snowboarding trying always to get that smooth S nomatter what the slope. I often think i am about to sit on a swing seat when i do heel turns, really commit. So far so good, heel turns are now my favourite. Love this video
I think you deliver these videos so well, one take smooth and clear. Looking forward to taking these tips on board in 2 weeks
Thanks so much 😊🙏
@@malcolmmoore you also saved me some good money on a insta360 so hopefully you get a nice kick back also!
Great explanation and corrections. I'm guilty of both. I lean back mostly in my toe-to-heel trying to control my speed. It fails me, when I hit ice patches. Thank you
nice. would be interesting to hear how a badly maintained or not properly adjusted rental snowboard could affect ones riding
Mr too
I mean it’s mostly the lack of customization that’ll get ya. Not setting stance wide to be comfortable for example. A board in poor condition won’t serve anyone well that much is obvious but honestly most of the rentals i’ve seen have been mediocre.
Yes as said above it is mostly lack of customisation. The rental boards tend to be ok maintained but not very flexible or 'poppy' so I found them not so responsive or fun to ride compared to the boards I now have. Also When I started I didn't know about angles and stance with so when I was first learning (being a tall long legged guy) it was all completely wrong from the rental shop but I didn't realise that was part of the problem until I had my own board to tinker with!
My first time I rode the rental gear was pretty good compared to my 2nd time at a different place. Which was mostly directed towards beginners. For one The boots couldn’t tighten at the shins so that forced me into using bad habits that I wanted to get rid of especially on toe edge turns. And made me fall a few times because of delay in edge turns. Definitely want to get my own gear but my apartment is pretty small here in Tokyo.
@@Mw_kwakhad the same experience. And also living in tokyo :P tbh, I’m tempted to buy my own boots at least this season as the difference between boot tightness and comfort is the most noticeable. Boards and bindings can be adjusted, I’m often adjusting my stance and angles to the conditions. The rental place can do it, or on the mountain there’s always a screwdriver at the lifts/gondolas and also work benches if needed. If lucky, you can get some boards with hybrid profiles to try, but most are rocker dominant. Some rental places will even let you try different boards each day, and wax, so that helps a lot in gaining the knowledge and your preferences before a purchase. It’s important to make a mental note all the characteristics of your gear that you lean towards. I highly recommend trying different boards on different days if you can, if they are vaguely similar, e.g same size and profile, then that helps narrow down the other differences such as flex etc.
Yessss I am definitely guilty of this, I have been boarding a few years now but still use my back foot like a handbrake on steeper slopes. I'm going to Alp d'Huez on 27th Jan maybe see ya out there!
Thanks so much for this. I kick my back foot out when I'm not feeling it.
It's such an obvious thing when you see it being demoed and explains why when I've got my flow right turns are easy but when I'm not on it or I'm rushing things I end up kicking my leg out.
I'm worse on flatter stuff at doing that where I'm so worried about catching an edge that I end up with unintentional speed checks when I'm just trying to get a turn in.
So many good videos! This is one is really a classic bad habit that riders take with them for many years, and don't realize how wasteful it is in terms of energy/conservation of momentum (not to mention loss of control). One side effect of doing what Malcolm describes here, is you'll tend to get tired in your back leg's upper quad as you overuse it to kick the board tail back and forth on edge changes. That, and leaning too far back (check your stance!) are often the cause.
Awesome. I'm always impressed with how good your heelside turns look. Most people look like they're sitting down on the toilet aka the dreaded poo man in surfing which is kindof hard to avoid on a snowboard since you have to somewhat squat (vs lunge) if you ride duck stance at least. You also seem to be somewhat forward facing in your stance and lean backwards both of which seems to help keep you stacked over the board. Would be super interesting to have a video on that topic. I'm trying to make my turns look like yours. Thanks Malcolm!
Greta, clear explanation. I've ben boarding for a god few years & still find value in your vids with good tips. Cheers
Awesome happy they help 😊😊✌️✌️
Malcolm, did you film this awesome lesson also in Alpes D'Huez? Great lesson. I'm so guilty of these faults
Yes in alpe d'Huez good spot!
This was exactly how I often ride. Gotta try out your advice next week. Thanks for the great video!
Malcom, I just love your videos, thanks!! You just properly described in this video the two biggest issues I still have as well and had during my last week snowboard vacation... I always "kick out" the board when comming from toe edge to heal edge (goofy rider) because I'm to late with the proper edge change... I'm going to work on doing my edge changes more properly and early enough and getting my weight on the right edge in time to be stable on the board and to keep the momentum in the right direction..
Another great video, I do the heel to toe with the counter rotation..I know I do it and have been working on it (mainly thanks to your vids about getting hips over...that made such a difference) I am now much better and it feels sooooo smooth and nice..however..I still counter rotate when I get caught out and rush the turn..either because I misjudged where the edge of piste was and need to turn faster or a skier turned into where I was going to turn...any tips for speeding up the turn for avoiding things without counter rotation?
Great videos and thanks for sharing the knowledge. I did have one question, what if you are trying to slow down on those S turns, I would assume you would then swing your board out in order to slow down. Is that considered skidding out? Seems to me like if you are doing perfect and tight S Turns, you would end up catching a lot of speed, and sometimes that may not be your intention either. If that makes sense?
My runs this season has been improving thanks to all your video Malcoln.
Those short s turn and the drills are helping.
Glad they are helping 😊🏂🙌
Dear Malcom, thank you for always putting out so much great content. I haven't snowboarded this season yet, but will be in a week from now. Since I have exactly this second mistake you mention in this video, now I have what I want to work on this season. I think in my case it comes from the fact that in the beginning I fell often on the back due to edge catching on the heelside edge, so i learned it the wrong way. Toe side turn is no problem, I can do a clean carve turn.
Amazing well I hope it helps! Sounds like you got this 🙌🙌
Wow all of my problems were completely called out here 😂😂 VERY HELPFUL MALCOLM THANK YOU
Thanks so much 😊🫶🙌
Can you demonstrate that smooth arc thing without the counter rotation mistake on a double black pitch full of moguls for me please... Not on a green run where speed increase isn't critical
I like his advice but have to admit it is very hard to not use counter rotation and washed out turns while on moguls
I was thinking the exact same thing ^^ if it's steep you gotta skid to scrub the speed, or while navigating moguls
Wow. This is exactly my problem. Malcolm, you PERFECTLY described the biggest issue I'm struggling with. However, my issue is that when I do achieve smooth edge changes, and keep my momentum across the slope, I just keep building and building speed until I'm going way too fast. If I don't skid, my speed just seems to exponentially increase.
To slow down, I was told to cut up the mountain, but then the board is facing up the mountain which makes the next edge change that much more difficult to engage because I have to do a much larger, wider turn to get going in the other direction.
Hi Malcolm. Off boarding for the first time for 12 years (kids and life you know). Have been watching all your excellent videos to brush up and the one that really interests me is your method using a ski pole. I really want to try this but the likelihood is the mrs won't let me use her pole. Thinking about buying the Insta360 X3 on your link. Tell me, would the stick part of this device double up as a good ski pole to do that exercise? A vid showing this would be brilliant - if possible. Pete
You're videos helped me SO much! I was able to actually snowboard without going on my heels the whole way down! Thank you so much!
Amazing well done!!!!! 😊🙌🏂
Excellent teaching, I learned a lot, thank you.
Annnnd just shreding at the end like it's nothing!! A freaking love it!! Also you are an amazing teacher I'm about to go snowboarding for the first time and now I'm watching all your videos.
Thanks so much!! Enjoy your trip 🙌🙌
I went snowboarding the other day, i have been applying your tips and i can tell that i have definetely improved my riding a lot and i could finally fully enjoy the session 🔥
That's amazing!!
Thanks
Many thanks, appreciate the tip 🙏
Im training with my bad foot forward and it always feels kinda awkward. You explain exacly my problem thanks! Gonna try this next week when im on the board :D
Hi Malcolm, longtime viewer of your amazing channel, you have really boosted my riding over the years! However even though my snowboarding is getting better and better and I’m finally able to carve, I am still scared of going fast. I haven’t seen a video from you about that yet, about fear or insecurities, not just for beginners, would be great if you could make a video and help with that!! Cheers
Best way to deal with that is ride more and get used to it.
Love your work Malcolm, any tips for riding with the camera pole in your hand? Tends to put my balance and technique off a little when i do it.
Great explanation as always Malcom!
I understand there are different ways to perform the edge change and that all of them imply (if done correctly) a shift of the center of gravity. My question is (and this is coming from a begginer) to perform the edge change from toe side to heel side (which is the one I strugle the most) should I try to get my weight more on the front foot, allow the board to flatten and then engage the heel side?
Regards from Portugal!
I kept falling over today then I changed to what he’s doing in the video and i went a few runs without catching an edge while turning. Another thing that also helped was making sure about 60% of your weight is on ur front foot otherwise you don’t have as much control and can’t change ur centre of gravity easily. Malcom you and Tommie Bennett’s videos have helped me learn to snowboard by myself it’s my first season I’ve improved so much in 4 days hopefully I’ll be somewhat intermediate by the end!
These instructional videos are brilliant. Thank you for making such great content that really provides fantastic information to help improve boarding, really appreciated.
Thanks so much glad they help ☺️🏂🙌
2nd mistake is exactly what I’m doing!
Thanks for the tips! Hard to correct, but practice makes perfect!
Yeah practice and you got this 🙌🏼🙌🏼
Malcolm Moore and Lars Horstmann are the best in terms of improving my riding. A big thanks to both of you, Professors :)
It's a pleasure!!!!
Is it still a mistake if you're trying to brake/speed check, or if you need to change the direction of the board quickly? I think I end up doing this on steeper moguly slopes where I'm not comfortable pointing the board straight down, or am going very slowly and need to go the other direction.
How do you like that board? Getting back into riding after many years not doing so. Heading to Colorado in a few weeks. I’m sure I’ll become obsessed again and I’ll be looking to upgrade my gear.
Great vid man! I need your advice with something. Im looking for a cheaper (sh if possible) second board. My main is a freeride so am looking at something shorter wider and fun. You have had both the Dancehaul and the Warpig, which would you recommend? And any other recommendations? Cheers dude and thanks for the free lessons you put out!
Hey Malcom I love the content long time watcher here, you’ve helped me quite a bit in perfecting my riding technique over the years thank you! One thing I’m always amazed at in your videos is how clear the slopes are, a lot of times I HAVE to make a skidded turn to avoid the obstacle in my path so my technique kinda goes to shit
Mr Moore is probably a first lift of the day kind of guy.
I am facing same problem, loads of mounds on the piste and only hard surface left so only thing I can so is skid and do falling leaf. So frusfrating I can'z partice carved and gripped turns. That's in nassfeld, austria.
Yeah I have to pick when I film, early season is normally good, try to avoid weekends. This was filmed just the other day here in Alpe d'Huez, it was so busy for new year but the following week completely empty with perfect conditions!!
Learning so much from your videos.
No more runs for this season but I have a lot on my plate to practice for next time!
Awesome so pleased they help!!
Amazing explanation! Is it more difficult getting your centre of mass over the board if you are a lighter or heavier person? I am pretty lightweight weighing only 58kgs
Another great vid. My struggle is my toe edge turn as I find myself going more uphill. Toe side, no issue but heel side 😮💨
Really liked the camera from above shots, really helped.
I like the angle from overhead! Often time I find it hard to visualize the movement of back leg because the back leg is hidden behind the front leg. Can you film the video more often from the overhead angle? I believe it’d be helpful to demonstrate your movement from multiple angles ❤
Great I'm glad it helped!!! Yeah it's a good angle I'll try and use it more 😊😊
I used to be VERY tired after a day of boarding and I used to do exactly that, pushing the board around. Now with using the “leg levers” I have so much more control and I can go for 33km a day.
But, my turns facing to the valley are still skidded in some conditions. I know what I’m doing wrong but it’s frustrating not seeing change. Just got back from wintersports so I can’t apply this video for another year😢
Thanks Malcolm for pushing my skills forward 😊
Loving the detail in you videos, do you have anything on riding off piste? Either just off the piste or deeper powder riding
Try this one ua-cam.com/video/h86lL3Mjxn0/v-deo.htmlsi=w2_S6C9j4j53BYxp 😊🙌🫶
Looking really forward to applying this to my own riding in three weeks... this is exactly what I've been doing all along (toe and heel edge) and was wondering how I can get the board to grip and carve.
Question, though: How exactly does the pop of the board factor into this? From what I understand it helps you "lift" yourself and shift the hips over from back to front side and vice versa, doesnt it?
Also, thanks for the insta promo link! Was really happy to get the cam with this meaty discount, thus relieving my old GoPro 3 from duty :D
thanks for this simple, yet impactful video. Question, you mention the different types of edge changes like up-unweighted, down-unweighted, retraction turns, and knee steering, but I thought that knee-steering was foundational/how you get the board to change edges and things like up/down unweighted and retraction turns were other tactics for different riding styles, per say. in order words, up and down unweighted and retraction turns used torsional flex. is that not correct? maybe i misunderstood your point in the video?
I need to force myself to do this. Just did my first week and i was very happy with my progress but i make this mistake quite a often when it gets a bit steaper. Going to practice this indoor next weekend. Also, where is this filmed? Looks amazing!
Hi Malcolm, thanks to you I really improved my riding, thank you. I even watch your videos on the lifts :) Recently I observed big issue with my riding: I change my egde when board is perpendicular to the slope but I still have to fight for the grip. My problem is I gain way to much momentum on the one edge (during the turn), then I make a change and if I will start making arc right away I will more often then not start to skid because my momentum is pushing me to the side of the piste and to counter that I have to apply enormous pressure on the front foot (like 80% of the distribution) to hold the clean line. Even that fails most of the time, so I skid a bit, lose speed, and then board is able to grip again. This happens a lot if piste is icy and/or steeper. Could it be caused by the board beeing too short? Do I need longer effective edge/sharper board?
Curious about the answer to this as well :)
This is exactly what I’m doing wrong - my edgechanges are always skidded - especially on red slopes. This never happens in mellow slopes like green. Thank you so much for your videos Malcom!
Loving your videos, your recent one on carving raising the opposite arm, really really helped and improved my riding. Are you still at Klien? Can you offer any recommendations about where to stay, etc, maybe a type of tour guide video, just a thought, it looks fantastic and if funds allow I would love to go there later in the season. Thanks
Hi thanks for your message, however I'm based in France alpe d'Huez 😊
best snowboard teaching in youtube..
Thanks so much 😀
Hi Malcolm, loving the videos and have been watching many and taking tips. Intermediate rider here. I wondered if you can help however. I’m constantly in pain with leg muscles, and it’s generally my calves, in particular my back calf. I’ve tried all sorts, new boots, new bindings, different stand widths, angles of bindings, I’m now day 6 of my snowboarding holiday and I’ve had to take a day off because my Calves are soooo sore. Is this common or not? I noticed at the beginning of the week that I was leaning more on my toes when on my toe edge which is why I believe my calves were hurting before, but I’ve made a conscious effort this past 3 days to push my knees out more and hips, but my calves are still causing me to stop every 30-40 seconds so I can rest them… any help would be so amazing? I want to have fun but I feel like the fun is being taken out of it due to pain!
Man, you explain soo good, I would listen to you even if I would not do snowboarding:) thank you!
Thanks so much 😊🙏🫶
All good Malcolm but what would be useful is a graphic layer on top of this video where you are shifting weight from toe to heel and vice-versa on your turns as this would help immensely. Thanks :)
Beautiful slope ☺️ can you please tell me where it was recorded? Cheers
Alpe d'Huez 😊
Loving the videos, all ive been watching for the last week 💪 Having learnt & only ever been indoor boarding, next week im letting loose on real snow 🎉🎉. Can you possibly do a guide on the different set up stances & what's best for those of us more comfortable riding regular as opposed to switch etc?
Yeah I think I'll have to do this one, lots of people asking...thanks for your message 😊🏂✌️
Yeah I think I'll have to do this one soon, lots of people asking...thanks for messaging 😊🏂✌️
excellent lesson Malcolm, thanks
You're welcome 🤗
Love these videos, I'm starting with snowboarding in a month. Indoor with my brother in law, he's going to teach me
Have fun!
Your channel has so many golden nuggets.
Haha thanks 😊🙌🏂
Hi Malcom, Ive been riding a Dada for a few seasons and am curious about your Biru - I found the Dada lacking on edge hold for fast carves and high speed, but great in powder in the trees. Am interested in the Biru as well, with the idea that it is a torsionally stiffer / higher speed Dada
I learned how to do a more proper edge turn by practicing on my e-scooter, standing sideways on it and shifting my hips/knees/heel&toe pressure from side to side as I keep the handlebars straight. Weird but works!
@malcolmmoore: Could you tie these concepts together with the ones from the “the very simple theory of good snowboarding” video for steepish terrain with moguls? I am struggling with these on my toe turn on steepish terrain with moguls as I panic and try to change edge before pointing down the inertia/fall line and avoid keeping the directional momentum of the turn. Instead, i force my board to change sides and I just skid down, which takes me into the next hole of the moguls and completely destabilizes me. This happens turning from the heel edge to the toe edge turn mostly.
You’re an angel, Malcolm!
Haha thanks 😊🫶
Been following you for a while… always a great job 👏🏻
Thanks so much 😊😊
Fantastic content as usual. Your videos have been invaluable to someone who has come back to snowboarding after 20 years. What can be done for someone like myself who feels “stuck” when transitioning from heel side to toe side?
If you mean that you're pointed down the fall line and can't get the board turned cross-piste on the toe edge, then he has a video about imaging two levels coming out from your boots and you push the levers to shift from heel to toe and vice versa. It could be that you need to bend your knees a bit more and shift your hips to the toe side. A problem I had in the beginning was I was hinging at my waist and bending over instead of pushing my hips forward.
Something an experienced friend of mine said was: Stand like a cowboy, knees bent and pushed sideways. When you want to go toe side, pretend like you're trying to piss over a log (push hips forward).
Where are you riding in this video? It looks awesome!!
Alpe d'Huez 👍😁
Hi Malcolm. I noticed you are using Stranda Biru here, I'm interesting in buing one for myself. Do you like it? Will it be good for carving and fast ride, or raher it fits for fun ride (freestyle, butter, etc.)
Yeah I'm a big fan, super cruisey and great for carving
Great videos- much appreciated! looking forward to putting it into practice soon in alpe d’Huez!
Brilliant enjoy!!!
I have a technical question:
I can see that you are using the full width of the piste in this video, and that it is very quiet too.
How can I bring this technique into my riding on a narrow piste when it is busy and you have to dodge other people?
😂 I feel like this was made for me! Thanks for another fantastic week mate ! See you soon 🙌
Yeah was amazing! See you at glasto...🤞😊🏂
How do you keep going straight on a long flat piste going towards chair lift that is rutted and full of ridges?
I fell 3 over times couldn’t keep it flat catching an edge 😢 any tips thanks
Thank you Best video on steep slopes I've watched😊
Thanks so much, happy it helped 😃
