    7 steps to learning how to carve your snowboard! In this video, we break down the steps to help you to learn to carve and feel the difference between carving and skidded turns. We start with static exercises to ensure you can feel how to balance on a carve, and then we progress our way up to carving across and down the hill. Like the video, if you got anything out of it! Thanks, my doods!

    Hey Tommie, love the vids man. Bit of a boring one but could you do a video about riding flats? I’m pretty competent everywhere else on the mountain but flats play with my emotions 😂 always feel unsteady and like I’m gonna catch an edge. Keep killing it, man 🤟🏼

      What kind of camber profile does your board have? I have a hybrid camber powder board (flying v) that feels pretty squirrelly on the cat tracks, but I have no problem with any of my strictly camber boards.

      @@masondixon1718 same here, Mason. I’ve got a lib tech Orca. Rips on the mountain but those cat tracks, no sir lol 🤦🏻‍♂️ that being said, I’ve never been great on the flats on any of the boards I’ve owned. It’s probably more in my head now tbh, guess I probably need to put my big boy pants on, get some confidence and get on those edges.

      Stay on an edge instead of riding completely flat. Heel/toe back and forth. I ride a super doa and also feel catchy when I flatten out.

    Got a question about carving and weight distribution: should I place a little more of my weight on my front foot while carving, or should I balance my weight evenly between both feet?
    I ask that because I understand that while going down the fall line my front foot should have most of my weight and I think the same should be done while turning. This holds true while carving too?

    • @bloobmonkey
      @bloobmonkey 8 місяців тому +1

      Late reply but you want your weight to be evenly distributed across the edge of the board, focusing weight into one foot is really only for carveturning generally. You have a little "give" and your weight doesn't have to be perfect but it should be as even as possible.

    • @Felix-kd8tn
      @Felix-kd8tn Рік тому +1

      Yeah if your boot hits the snow enough to pull your boards edge from the snow, it's gonna break the carve.

  • @azel8rrp169
    @azel8rrp169 Рік тому

    It's funny because I thought this was the only way to snowboard so this is what I always did when learning, because everytime my board was flat I would lose control. So I only use my edges. Otherwise I feel like I have no grip and freak out and eat snow.

    Drink your caffeine in the parking lot/right before your first run. You’ll get more benefit and less crash if you do it then instead of right when waking up. Pro tip for those who crash hard from caffeine

    • @elitenrg8281
      @elitenrg8281 Рік тому

      I just stand looking up hill (toe side), build a shelf and strap in while standing. Saves my knees and my butt from getting cold/wet.

      Step ins or Step on bindings will fix that. Haven't sat down to strap in the last 3 seasons so much better on the back for this 54 yr old. Btw I have both the Burton step ons and Nidecker supermatics. Both work very well! Never going back to straping in.

    4th video about carving this week from different bloggers. Why so much attention, this is a secondary technique. You can ride all your life without carving

    • @gotbim9071
      @gotbim9071 Рік тому +8

      .....maybe cause it's not really secondary. Carving is basically edge control, you literally use it with everything (groomers and park)
      If you genuinely believe it's secondary then you're not good probably

  • @leonwillett4645
    @leonwillett4645 Рік тому +4

    QUESTION: on park jumps, it seems like on any kind of straight air you lean forward just a tiny bit as you take off, to create a parabola where you angle yourself downwards towards the landing (to avoid landing in the back seat).
    However, on spinning tricks, you fully commit to the upward angle of the take off, and your snowboard is often at right angles to the landing. Then as you land, you use your just your legs to execute what looks like a massively-back-seat landing, but use the friction of the edge of your snowboard upon landing to correct your upper body position as you ride away from touchdown.
    Essentially you are using the landing CARVE and edge switch to put your upper body upright, but you landed hugely in the back seat.
    I'm guessing all of this is subconscious, but I feel like nobody is talking about this, and the upward slant of the takeoff (and downward slant of the landing) really messes with my head.
    To be clear, the backseat landings after (perhaps corked) spinning tricks look awesome, I am just trying to understand the physics.
    Learning forward slightly while taking off for a spinning trick, in order to angle your upper body ready for the eventual landing seems uncomfortable, so I think we need to acknowledge that we are actually landing hugely in the back seat and then using a post landing carve and edge switch to correct our center of mass.
