Yo @johnathan buckhouse I was watching your Wisconsin vids and saw you said you forgot to scoop a pin at Alpine Valley. I used to work at alpine and have a pin from there. I could also go and scoop you one if you wanted a new one. I'm only 10 min away from Alpine.
falling the right way is really underestimated it can really save you on the hills 🙏 I think it should be taught in snowboard class it would really benefits everyone 🙏🙏🔥 Dope video bro 🤟🤙
@@AntoineVac ye it used to cost 60$ for a day trip and in those days i could afford to go 2 or 3 times a season but now its closer to nearly double that price and i could hardly afford to go once this year but i managed it once still wish i could afford to go more tho
I am 45 years old and reentering snowboarding.I skied for 12 years and snowboarded for 8.I have fallen before and put my hands out and fractured my wrist in 3 different places 3 different times.I wish I had this video when I started out.Wishing you love and success in all your endeavors. Thank you for keeping me safe in mine
This is one of the best videos I’ve seen on snowboarding. I tell people all the time about water sports(I’ve been behind a boat most my life). The best riders are also the best at crashing, because they can limit the impact so they can go again! Awesome tips!
if you're looking for good instruction on how to fall, some Jiu jitsu break fall lessons are also an excellent way to help teach you to mitigate impacts (most martial arts teach you how to properly fall), especially in the less than ideal scenarios that JB mentioned. I was taught how to fall at a very young age using similar methods after a fall from a horse broke both my arms, haven't had a serious fall injury since. definitely worth the time and PRACTICE to learn how to fall properly. one thing that's important to mention, is that you need to internalize how to fall, that only comes from falling thousands of times and practicing how to fall properly until the reaction is muscle memory and you don't have to think about it, if you have to think about what you're doing mid fall its already too late and you're likely going to slam. Stay safe everyone KEEP EVOLVING
Braydan Bylsma Thank you so much for this vid, I’m been getting into snowboarding a lot and I’ve been falling a bunch, this vid helped me, bc I’m always trying to fight the fall 100%
Sounds like solid advice... I just broke my finger by "reaching back." Doctor says the fracture will take 12-18 months to heal. Now I gotta ride with a popsicle stick in my glove!
Not saying elbow out is wrong but you need to also flex your arms while doing it. I fell and elbowed out last time I went snowboarding and my arm twisted and I sprained my rotator cuff pretty bad. Luckily didn’t tear it. If I had flexed my muscles during the fall my arm probably wouldn’t have twisted
Riding and training horses as a boy taught me to fall..... tuck and roll just like you said. Unfortunately things sometimes happen so fast the body doesn't have time to react/respond the "right" way. I was practicing my switch riding a few weeks ago and caught my toe edge. When I went down it happened fast and my arm was under my ribs when I hit. I didn't go to the docs but, it hurts to do just about anything that involves my core. It's been a couple weeks and the ribs are feeling a bit better but, I definitely have had to dial back my riding a lot to allow for healing. Thanks for the video and keep yourselves safe! 😎👍❤️🏂 Randy
You talk about letting the board take as much of the impact as much as possible... won't that screw up your knees? It did for me anyway... caught a bad heelside edge, took a tumble and I'm still nursing an MCL sprain almost 8 weeks later. :-/ Is there a particular way to let the board take the impact without creating knee injuries?
Another advice: don’t try to go on a feature if you don’t have a good setup. A few days ago I was trying to hit a box after a jump and didn’t have enough time to set up correctly and ended up spraining my elbow
I’m not sure you wanna tense your neck when falling. You can really strain those muscles. I would say try to instinctually cover your head with your arms and relax your neck and head to avoid whip lash or strain. Like huh your head with your arms. Idk
I fell backwards tryna to a heel side turn going Mach 43 thousand and put my arm behind me. Shit shattered and I have a bump on my arm from where a fragment of my arm is sticking out
Terrible advice in that wrist guards are never encouraged, although the potential for wrist injury is mentioned quite a bit. There are snowboarding gloves that even come with them built in and slip on like regular gloves. That is probably the most crucial advice to give beginners for handling a fall. Wear wrist guards and let them take the brunt of the force/initial impact, and then roll to dissipate the rest of the energy.
But if you learn to fall and never put your wrist in harms way you never need them. If you put them on and depend on them the one time you leave them at home could be the day you break your wrist. Or if you learn never to reach out with your hand you will never have the issue 🤙🏼 and you can save money on not buying them.
So i fell and didn’t brace my self, just tried to avoid getting my arms under me, and still managed to hit my elbow which separated my shoulder. However I got ran into
Question. If your helmet was a 3/4 helmet like motorcyclist have (not the full helmet just where it goes down over your jaw) would that prevent most concussion injuries, it seems like it is something that can happen regularly and with just a different kind of helmet can you prevent the majority of them? Concussions are no joke.
I'm complete a noob but have a feeling that falling square on your elbows will do lot more damage, possible dislocating shoulders. Can't we just extend arms without locking elbows?
Lower back injury, falling on elbows braced.... could also to shoulder injury landing with elbows catch on snow. Watch out for extended arms on soft snow. If your arm goes under the snow and stops, body keeps going can be a problem.
What about catching the front edge so hard you do a forward flip, smacking your head on the way over, and landing on your bum so hard you blow a disk? Asking for a friend. 😆
Before snowboarding I longboarded for 10 years (8/18) and honestly everything is on point in this video! Way worse consequences when you aren't landing on snow but instead, hard cemet! I slam on the mountain the way I do on a hill. Saved me many times. And slamming on the mountain SUCKS! But it could be cemet or ice... not very friendly
I tried to roll out of a fall after catching an edge… I ended up elbowing myself in the ribs so hard that knocked the wind out of myself and I got a grade 4 spleen laceration.
i did a frontside shifty *about a week ago* and i forgot to counter rotate so i couldn't twist back to face forward and just watched as a was looking down the hill, falling, and landed sideways (i had some good air too)
I do not like arms out or elbows out on toe side fall (1min39in). Took a fall, elbows out, because my upper body was so braced caused the lower back to arch, heard a cracking noise. Could not sleep on stomach for next several months. I go for a body hug if a ground slap is not going to work. Next fall in the video depicts more of a superman and slap the ground(works on hard surfaces). On softer snow I do not want arms to get stopped by the snow and have the rest of my body continue.
Next video suggestion: drills to build the correct instincts when falling. In martial arts, you practice rolling out a fall. That way you don't have to think about the technique when you actually need to use it. The tips in this video are good, but I think the brace vs roll methods are opposites and you don't want to brace when you are about to take a bigger slam. Bracing might be good if you catch an edge, but probably not good if you've messed up a big jump. So I would suggest rolling practice. On a snowboard, this can be difficult because your feet are fixed with a rigid board that can get in the way of the roll. Another thing to think about is that you are most likely going to be falling an a slope which can help dissipate that impact energy.
Only two bones I’ve broken are from snowboarding 1 from sliding down to fast on my toe edge and not having it in enough so my heel edge caught and slammed be back onto some packed powder and prove my arm right below the shoulder, and second I’m not even sure was a break but after wiping out and tumbling a few times I fell a few feet with some momentum right on my ass at a 90° sitting angle and the surface was ice so I’m pretty sure I broke my tailbone, couldn’t sit painlessly for a good few months atleast. Anyways long story short I’m gonna take some of this advice and hit the powder Again once winter hits.
"Trying to throw a 3 off a cat track instead of off a park jump" you mean parks are supposed to have jumps? Cat tracks are the only way to get air here

You should make a dope SLAM-TAGE so we can all feel better about our riding haha
Come on and slam, and welcome to the jam!
Yooo
Slampage*
falling the right way is really underestimated it can really save you on the hills 🙏 I think it should be taught in snowboard class it would really benefits everyone 🙏🙏🔥 Dope video bro 🤟🤙
Yewwww
In skiclass where i went, they taught that. But it was ski and not snowboardclass, so i dont know if they teach it in snowboardclass.
when i went to ski school i was taught how to fall properly
sadly i dont go snowboarding much these days as its an expensive hobby
@@Ponlets That s greaat honestly! Yeaah i feel you man... snowboarding gets really expensive over time...
@@AntoineVac ye
it used to cost 60$ for a day trip and in those days i could afford to go 2 or 3 times a season but now its closer to nearly double that price and i could hardly afford to go once this year but i managed it once
still wish i could afford to go more tho
caught a mad toeside egde few years back, dislocate shoulder, rotator cuff tear, great tips 👍

Same problem here. I think it’s part of our reflexes and hard to change

I believe you meant Judo and not Jiu Jitsu for learning how to fall??
Great advice, thanks
just fractured my wrist and so now i’m doing my research. cant wait for next season 🤘🤘
I can confirm the don’t stretch your arms out thing. I’ve broken my arms 3 times trying that.
Loved the video
all us park noobs like me needed this. Thanks bro
Man those are some hard falls. Ouch 🤕 great video man!! Cheers 🍻

Super super solid advices! Thank you.
🙏🏼
That was super helpful because when I fall I hit my head no matter how I fall pretty much. Thanks for the video

🙏 perfect timing. This was me all day today. Got my board tuned n it felt weird. Ski Doc we need you at big bear.
You should also slide out when you fly to fast over a hill instead of trying to land on your board.(Depending on location)
Checking and rechecking ..that last one bad.
I’m here because I just had my second AC separation

I wish i watched this video sooner i almost dislocated my wrist in gudauri ski resort
U boyz have taken pretty good slams 😣 Still surprises me how Benton survived that one legged jump pretty unscathed. It was just gnarly AH!!
Right bro 🤣😂
Helped a lot
Another advice: don’t try to go on a feature if you don’t have a good setup. A few days ago I was trying to hit a box after a jump and didn’t have enough time to set up correctly and ended up spraining my elbow
What is the background song at the start? I know it has been in other vids
Great tips man!
You need to go to elm creek in minnasota for a good tow rope terrain park
Demon Flexmeter wrist guards....worth the $80.
1:32 wish i had learn that before i broke my left arm. worse part wasn't going fast and I just falling backwards when trying to go left
i'm fine now. but still sucked cause I couldn't do anything the rest of the time there like 3 days I couldn't
do anything and 2 days where I could
0:29 I remember that video I hateeee that crash it just looked so painful
Missed it again being out for a night session. Shredding right out of my bindings. Felt like the boys at the end of the east coast trip HAHAHAHA
LETS GO 70K 🎉
bruh I broke my wrist today! you should've uploaded it last night!
Let’s goooo
i’m at killington rn so wish me luck
Yea thanks, now I will hopefully not dislocate both my arms on the same jump again
I never want to break any collar bone again lmfaoo 2nd time last season and it has been holding me back even though I want to progress
THANK YOU from some idiot that's broken the same wrist twice!
Will u b at keystone the 8-10??
I’m not sure you wanna tense your neck when falling. You can really strain those muscles. I would say try to instinctually cover your head with your arms and relax your neck and head to avoid whip lash or strain. Like huh your head with your arms. Idk
I broke my ankle last season and from time to time when I crash and my board twist I get a lot of pain and have to walk it off
Benton’s got some strong bones.
70k!!!!!
Hyped!!!
I fell backwards tryna to a heel side turn going Mach 43 thousand and put my arm behind me. Shit shattered and I have a bump on my arm from where a fragment of my arm is sticking out

I hurt my neck just watching this video
My tailbone hurts every time I fall. East coast riding...
Get crash pants!

Does this work for skiing?

just broke my wrist 💯
Would’ve been nice to know before I broke my arm last night…
Don't stick your hands out when you fall onto your back you can break you wrist aswell.
*JESUS CHRIST LOVES YOU AND CARES FOR YOU HAVE A GOOD DAY EVERYONE*

What about catching the front edge so hard you do a forward flip, smacking your head on the way over, and landing on your bum so hard you blow a disk?
Asking for a friend. 😆
you should take a martial arts class to learn how to take a high fall like aikido or judo to roll out of it
unfortunately i saw this one a little too late 😂😅
"how to fail succesfully"
😂
Mmmmm maybe I should have watched this video before breaking my tailbone 🤔🤔🤔
Hola soy David y soyuna mierda de amigo siempre Irreal4life😢
Don't Eat It! (Unless its pizza)
Yes 🤣😂🤣😂
Why didnt you show how to fall correctly? You scared?
Oof man one of falls looked super painful 😬

no road rash in the snow XD
He's a skater, not a snowboarder, but Na-Kel Smith has the best fall technique in the game!
That’s awesome
needed this just broke my collarbone
Like an alanis morissette song! Lol sorry about the injury
Today I broke my collarbone while doing jumps in the park. And I landed on my elbows and collarbone just said snap and broke
how do i fall without breaking my ass tho ?? please help me !
Congrats on 70k subscribers!
Tae kwon do taught me how to fall when i was young. Ive been riding about 20 years now without any major injuries. (knocks on wood)
I tried to roll out of a fall after catching an edge… I ended up elbowing myself in the ribs so hard that knocked the wind out of myself and I got a grade 4 spleen laceration.

Your name fits this slam perfectly. Lompy means clumsy person in Dutch 😂✌
@@s.vanlith.netherlands6347 haha thank you
I should’ve watched this before I go snowboarding ! I fell like 20 times and now my whole body hurts 😭
Nothing broken is a success!!
i messed up with the extending of the arms the other day. broke my wrist
Nice advise. I kept faceplanting and having the board soo behind me and bend my back backwards. How could I stop that ?

How to fall on a double black diamond?, i almost went into the woods because i felt and it was very steep
watching this after a torn rotator cuff last week on the mountain. thanks haha
Nice to be back to Colorado
Thanks for the help
Anyone know what the outdo song is??
If you're not falling you're not shredding!

Watching this after i slammed my head today. Of course
I hope you are ok!
@@JohnathanBuckhouse i am doing okay but the food poisoning the next day was kinda weird. Snowboarding gives you some weird injury's.
The way i fall is i basically pull in my shoulder and become a ball and land on my shoulder and roll
1:15 every time i try to impress my friends with a cool butter
Can you recommend how to get courage to hit rails
I went snowboarding for the first time this season and got slammed! This is so perfect
