In this video I've got ten beginner snowboard tips for your first day on the mountain. These ten tips teach you everything from strapping up you snowboard for the first time to doing your first snowboard turn. I'll also show you how to avoid some of the biggest mistakes when first learning how to snowboard. If you have any beginner snowboard questions feel free to leave them in the comment area. I'll also put a link to the beginner snowboard playlist where there are dozens of beginner snowboard tutorials. Thanks for watching!
Whos watching here because theyre going on snowboard for the 1st time? Haha
I only know how to sky hahaha
Me 😂
Have fun - thats the thing - just GET UP, and do it. Be SURE to eat breakfast , dont gorge out when you hav lunch 🥪
Going to Tahoe in a month 😮
Yeh
Just started snowboarding at 35....let's just say I'm sweating buckets! Good tips!
i am beyond happy that i found your channel, you’ve taught me how to snowboard just through your videos and it has gotten me through my first day on a mountain, how to select my gear, how to adjust and get everything ready, and even what i will need with me on my snow trip. keep up the amazing work kev!
I'v never seen Kevin in such high quality!!
im moist
You don’t understand. I neeeed to be filmed on a RED camera.
@@SnowboardProCamp RED camera was made for you
Live'R than McGuyver...
@@SnowboardProCamp Red camera is built different
After ankle surgery last year, I can't get my ski boots on. Nows the time to learn a new sport. Thanks for the awesome tips.
So legit, this is going to help so many people get into snowboarding! Hope this one goes to 1M+!
lets hope so
So legit LOL!
i have never stepped foot on a snowboard but for the past 2 weeks i've been watching like 100 trillion snowboarding tutorial videos lmao. hoping to go rent a board for the first time next month :)
how did it go!?
I've never went snowboarding or skiing until last week. I watched this video and your other video on how to toe slide and heel slide before the trip and it helped out tremendously. I was hitting the blue slopes as a first time snowboarder before the end of the day. Thank you for the amazing videos and lessons!
Couldn’t be meee i literally couldn’t even hit the bunny hill 😭
Saving this video! I’ve been snowboarding for 4 years and still can’t heel edge. I do all my hills on my toe edge which I believe is causing ankle discomfort and muscle spasms later in the day. As a newly 50 year old, the fear takes over. I’ll keep watching this video. Thank you.
So i did my first snowboard run yesterday. I watched this video and went. No problem skating around went straight for the lift up on a blue slope and went for it. Everything came naturaly apart from catching edges, great video!
Stoked to work on this with you Kevin, here’s to more projects in the future! 🔥🎥✂️
The production quality is just insane!
Not only did you pick a chance with an entirely empty slope, but also did you do a perfect job on editing this
As a beginner what really helped me was boarding on the edge. I couldn't link my turns that well when I was sliding and it was always awkward. But when I realized I can use the flex of the board to enter the turn with my front using the downhill edge while my back foot was still using the uphill edge it was basically one of the simplest things I ever did. From there it was very easy to link my turns and ride on the edge. Add a little slide here and there to slow speed and good to go.
Thx for the tips! Hit the slopes for the first time ever this weekend and I didn’t have an instructor, but this video gave me the tools to learn and after a couple hours I started feeling pretty comfortable on the board 👌🏻
Brilliant! I cannot thank you enough. I have taken this up at 51 years old and I am determined.
Wow, so that's how we do it! I always just assumed a wizard cast me down the hill. Point it and go as I always say.
Donderlab nailed it with the camera work! So supremely excellent!
Hahaha.... Wizards
ask Donderlab to follow you through those Andreas woods.
I have #11. Get fit before going to the mountain. Easily overlooked, but SO vital. If you can learn all day, you will win. Great channel.
going on my first ski trip and I’m super nervous to be around some more well-versed people, but this really makes me feel confident to see and have some idea of how to do basic movement! Thank you so much!!
Same lmao I’m leaving for tahoe tomorrow
@@mysterysauce69 Ohh, have fun!! It’s amazing there!
I’ve been skiing for 8 years! I am taking a lesson tomorrow morning. I am super excited! Ive been skateboarding for a long time and that will probably help! Thanks for these tips. I will edit this comment tomorrow night and tell you guys how it went. Thanks again! 😊 Edit: it went great! I snowboarded for 4 hours. I tried a bigger hill but I was getting tired so I got sloopy. I'm gonna be sore for days. 😅 anyway I really enjoyed it! Thank you for your tips! God bless!
Amazing!
Hey man, just wanted to say that I watched your video before I went snowboarding for the first time today and this was so helpful- I had such a great experience. Just wanted to say thanks, you’re doing a great job!
Hey Kevin, long time listener, first time caller....
Great to see you returning to your roots in such a high quality video. If you are planning a refresh of the beginner Playlist I'm all for it.
Getting people out there and having fun as quickly as possible is what this thing is all about.
Clear concise directions, great choice of word cues, keeping it minimal & simple! Thank you!!
Glad it was helpful!
I can’t thank you enough for this video and others. I had my first snowboard day at age 40. I did have some skateboarding experience. Even though some things felt unnatural at first I followed all the steps. I had one of the best days of my life. I went down more experienced slopes after 2 hours of practicing these techniques. I saw such pretty views and was comfortable going fast and controlling speed with frontside and backside. I rarely fell and when I did it was slow enough didn’t hurt. Thank you so much for sharing the knowledge and enjoying snowboarding better than I could have imagined.
Man, I can't stress enough how important it is to get a beginner-compatible board. I just moved from a Rome Modrocker (flat rocker), which gave me a ton of trouble, to a Bataleon Magic Carpet, and what a world of difference did it make! huge!
Im so happy i found this channel. Lots of great tips but he also helps build confidence. While helping new riders hes very pateint and shows how it will take time to learn but its okay to ask for help aswell.
Went snowboarding for the first time about a week ago and loved it so much your vids helped me have an amazing first time ‼️ preciate what your doing man
Went snowboarding for the first time last season. I only went once, but I loved it. I'm getting amped for this next season and I've been scouring you channel for all the tips and insights I can find. Love your channel! Keep it up!
I 💜 your videos they help so much‼️. I’m new to Breckenridge and am about to snowboard for the first time.
I think as a beginning snowboarder it is important to clarify...Toe and heel blade, toe blade is used only when facing uphill...and heel blade is only used facing down hill, that is an important distinction and can be really confusing when referencing heel/ toe blade...why you have to flip position etc. It is really an important concept that is easily overlooked😉 especially on turns and connecting turns, and the reason for a snowboard that can be used in both directions, that doesn't necessarily have a nose or a tail....
Great tips and tricks! Thanks for explaining better than myself to beginners and what / when to teach
This quality is amazing more like this please
As a beginner snowboarder this is super super helpful! Thank you so much for putting this video together.
So happy it helped!
This is such a good video!! Helped me so sooo much. It's so clear, and the way you explain the technique for each progression is so precise. Hope this video reaches more and more people who are trying to learn. And your whole channel is the best! Thanks a bunch Kevin
Just had my first day on the hill today, I cant wait to get back out there and improve. Thanks for the great video, awesome advice!
Im so glad there are actual names for the stuff I've been doing intuitively cause trying to explain this stuff to friends is tricky
Amazing quality Kevin! Thanks for the new video and looking forward to getting back on the slopes Down Under in a couple of months!
I just want to say thank you. Yesterday was my first time ever and i did it!. Great video, great tips, very well explained.
Thanks for this video so so much! I did my first lessons today, but my instructor rushed through everything and I didn't do parts of the turns individually but all together and got so sad because I didn't feel like a learned anything and got scared to try anything bu myself after the lessons. Thank you for giving me confidence back.
Watching your videos was one of the reasons I started snowboarding! 👍❤️
this film really helped me!!! i started snowboarding a few weeks ago and i love it. thanks for this tips
This was so helpful! I was able to enjoy my first day snowboarding because of your tips!!
Somebody got a new camera, cameraman and some new editing tricks, nice look Kev!
Yeah, Lou from Donderlab did wonders with her camera setup and editing!
@@SnowboardProCamp I apologize for cameraman, cameraWOman is better, fantastic work by the both of you!
Killer vid, as always Kevin! Anyone/everyone can appreciate this instructional
The production in this video is incredible
Got me through my first day, much appreciated!!
Hi! I just wanted to let you know that this video really helped me. I was trying snowboard for the first time (my ski level is decent) I went 30 min on the school track to practice it and after that, I went on the top. Obviously, I spent the day falling and adjusting, but after 3h-4h, I was almost doing slaloms and barely fall. The only tip I accepted to hear from my friend was : bend your knees more. I thought I had to bend them that much only at higher speed but nope, helped me transtition from heels to toes and vice versa.
Looking foward to my second day of snowboard!
These are very SMART things to learn right away...
Brilliant video, fell like I've just had a private lesson.
Love this video! Great quality! You make it look so simple lol but I love it! Great job! Thank you!
Very informative and helpful. Thanks
Thanks! I haven’t been in seven years and am a perpetual amateur 😅 I went yesterday but only did the gondola runs in fear of getting off the lifts, haha. I had forgotten the best way to get off the lift without biting it. I’m going to practice the one foot out on the bunny hill today until I get it down.
Kevin took the CZcamsrs suggestions and got a new camera!!!
Thanks for teaching I mastered it day one on everything except the jumps
Thank you..I'm so ready after watching this. I'll try Marmot this weekend .I'm beginner. Thanks Kevin😘
Thank you for this!
Thank you! my first introductory video!😊
It’s was really helpful, I’ve learned all this in my first 5 hours of training, biggest respect, man😊😊😊
Thanks for sharing. Much appreciated.
Super awesome video for beginners 🤙🏂
Super useful tips - thank you!!
Camera quality is amazing! Great production Kev
Lou from Donderlab did an amazing job with the filming and editing!
The most helpful tip I ever got was from a lift op. He said pinch your knees together on a toe turn and push them out (like doing a squat) on a heel turn. Not technically perfect, but it got me up and running and I was able to make adjustments from there.
One tip I have, is don't pull your heels up in your boots when doing a toe side turn. That'll cause you to balance all your weight onto your toes and at higher speeds that's a very wobbly position to be. Balancing on your toes is hard enough just standing up and it's not any easier on a snowboard. Make sure to just bend your knees a bit more and lean into the bindings with your feet flat against the board. That'll make sure you say stable in your athletic stance and keep your center of balance controlled during the turn.
Im good at skiing, but i want to try snowboarding for the first time! Thank you for all your tips!! :) im excited to try this week
I'm very happy fo have found this channel. Thanks.
Sweet! Thank you for the tips very helpful never been snowboarding but I would like to at least try it out and get a feel for it.
Best video ever! Thanks for all your tips!
Kevin, man you’ve saved my life starting to snowboard. Any tips/tricks for spring boarding in slush/POW combo?? I’ve been between WA & CO and struggled recently with spring slush
I came back to say that I manage to learn snowboarding just with your video and after 2 hour i came down on green and after 4 time on green I just straight on red and finish just with 3 fall but those falls was because there were a lot of ice on track.
Many thanks for the tips!
dude. seriously, i’ve watched this video 12 times. going on our first trip tomorrow, have to learn and guide my little boy down the hill as well. daddy needs to be on his game, and, just, THANK YOU! teaching is the greatest gift!! let you know how it goes.
How did it go??
@@InfinityArch he dead, rip
Thanks So much,Im a Pro skier put now i enjoy snowboarding way more!
Sick!
This video helped me a lot! ❤Thank you!🎉
Damn! The new camera/filming/editing is looking slick! Your older beginner videos got me back into the sport and this will do the same for so many more people
My thoughts exactly. Back to basics with some neat video enhancements will make this another classic, eagerly sought by newcomers to snowboarding. Love it...
The is definitely the most high quality video you have ever put out. It’s really well done and definitely your best vid yet. Great job Kev keep ui the good work.
Thanks Gabe! A friend of mine Lou filmed it with her RED camera and did a killer job on the video!
@@SnowboardProCamp yeah it looks awesome
Definitely subscribed and thanks for reminding me to have fun ! Will do ! 😎
Thank you for help💪
i am definitely subscribing
Thank you fore this information :) nexst weekend i am going on a snowboard fore the first time with freinds! I have just been watching your videos 24/7 😂
I like this so much! Really helpful, so I would like to get out to Montana and perhaps work there involved in the skiing scene these tutorial videos really help me feel better about my confidence going in to the slippery slidy
This is SO helpful!
love this tutorial. I am going back for more practice tomorrow
You got it!
Thanks for tips 4 and 5
Omg, this video is everything I need! I’ve watched so many random tips lately, but this video puts it all together and is easier to process in my head. Thank you so much, Kevin!🙌
Thanks for the tips! This will help me for next time lol
Wow I love how this video was edited!!!
Tanks for tips 4 and 6
Kevin, this was put together very well, your friend did a great job, nice dude👌🏾
thank you so much this helped so much
Get going Kev. You are in control of your destiny. No country can hold you down.
i’m watching this after my first day. I started on the bunny hill and ended up on one of the runs of the highest hills. I don’t think I progressed to quickly because i followed all of these tips without even knowing 😂
This was so helpful
Didn't know a lot of those things and I have one full season under my belt and would consider myself intermediate lol. Will definitely implement those tips tomorrow already
Ok today it was my first time snowboarding i spent the 2 days before watching several times this video, and guess what i did great man thanks to you I wish I can send you a video to show you
Kevin! We need some more intermediate tips! I'm trying to prepare myself for next season
Had an all day snowboarding lesson for my 40th and broke my wrist an hour in..ploughed through it but had to end the session just before linked turns as the pain was unbearable, so this vid really helps with the last part I needed to learn! Hopefully back on the snow soon all healed and ready to learn :)
Oh damn! Glad you’re sticking with it!
Bro this video was insanly good built !
im a skier and im getting a snowboard next week
really stoked
Crazy good quality!
Extra Dopeeeeee Thank you for the tips
