Now theoretically speaking if you were to say hop on my back and I were to piggy back you, do you think that our speed would exceed the maximum velocity of an African Swallow?
Would you happen to know if you'll be coconut laden or not?
@@zcummins83 We will only use the finest cotton candy money can buy to weight us down.
Yooo
I believe you mean the maximum air speed velocity of an unladen swallow? African or European.
@@zcummins83 "look, it's not a matter of where he grips it!"
Riding 21 years now, decently gnarly rider, still like watching all your vids.
Yewww
Right never hurts to dial in your technique
It’s so good to have you back on the learning curve. Something we have been missing 🤟🤟🤟🤟
Im binging your videos to make sure I know what I wanna work on when I get back on the slopes. Your content really helps alot💪
Was just starting to learn everything you discussed in this video the end of last season. I was looking for more info on tips to get better & bam!! Just what I need with the season early here. Thanks for putting out these amazing vids. I used your videos last yr, along with some lessons, and did so much better than I ever imagined.
Been riding for years, and I have definitely gotten too complacent in my form. Always good to get these reminders to re train myself and body. Thanks Tommie
30 years of SB and i like to go fast. I agree with all your drills, i love drill 3 (superfast edges changes) if i have muscle contractions on the slopes. I saw it being called undercarving in an old tutorial. Great work Tommy!
I /really/ loved how you crossed your arms before and after demonstrating bad form, that helps me keep it straight subconsciously!
Your form is so clean, love it
I e been boarding for a while and learned some thing from this...great step by step breakdown!
First season man ! Living and working in Vail. Been out twice now. Really appreciate your content brotha. Hope to see you on a run this winter 🤙🏻
Glad to see you back my dude
unrelated to the video but dryland training just the past month or two leading to the season has made me so much better already this year.
I needed this! I kept rotating slightly at Keystone. I had to change my binding stance a bit to compensate. but i think I'll move it back and test it out.
@@tommiebennett Just wanted to come back and say thanks! I went to keystone yesterday. I switched back to duck and did my best to keep my rear shoulder aligned more with the board. One of the most fun days I've had on a mountain. I even started practicing my switch riding better.
P.S I started applying more toe side pressure with my shins like you said in another video and my transitions were so much better overall.
I'm going back tomorrow. Hope to catch you sometime!
Thanks for your great videos! Would love to hear tips and pointers on for riding on icy terrain like on the east coast!
Don’t ride after the sun goes down.
If you go faster the quicker you will cross straight ice patch.
Get low, almost stay in a squat on an edge. If you fall it won’t be as bad.
These videos are so helpful! I am a skier whose trying out snowboarding this year and hoping to go in a snowboard race in march.. these tutorials are so clear and easy to follow and leave me excited to go out snowboarding again!
😂
Really helpful Tommie, thanx 😊
Tips for getting the belly button lower and avoiding the waist bend thing would be a good video if you didn't already make one.
3:06 that guy in the back was MOVING lol
Over time I've been applying many things from your videos and I'm now trying to convince others, who are at different stages of their riding and struggle with the basics, to watch your explanations and understand how important is a strong body position in building that confidence
Just discovered you and love your videos, I have only snowboarded for a week in Snowmass Village but plan to go back this spring break, I plan to go to CSU to become a snowboard instructor or at least work in a resort, I love the sport and only wish it was possible in Texas lol.
These seem like pretty good tips ^^
I haven't gone snowboarding in years (last time I went was maybe 2017 or 2018, before speed tracking apps were at all reliable), but I was doing it a tone when I was going regularly. I remember there was a few days when my dad and I just bommed those mile long black diamond runs on the backside (most likely rail splitter to down under). I think we had it down to somewhere around 4.5-6 minutes from getting off the lift to getting back on it. Doing that was fun but also scary as hell! The amount of board chatter I was getting was a bit unnerving and I am wondering now if doing these drills would've helped me maintain more controll or if I was just pushing my board beyond what it could reasonably handle.
What do you think? At what speed do you think anyone would find it hard to controll their board?
Damn how do you make those quick edge changes!! I feel like thats also a must when going slow
Come see me Aspen Highlands! Gotta show these people how to do the Highlands bowl
I know you use the cartels, but what is your opinion on the cartel X?
Trying to decide which ones to go with, coming from using Fix bindings
Hi what stiffness rating does that Lago board have? Can you do a review of it?
@Tommie Bennett Hi. Can you advise me on which stance is suitable for the exercises? I used to a ducky stance but I've got doubts about using it in carving
can't wait for the next one, really need speed control on my russian slope😂
What kind of glove/mitts are those? They appear to have a zipper on the front edge? Can you provide a Brand and Model name?
I didn't realise Bill Burr was a Snowboard instructor. 😀
Jokes aside; good stuff. Thanks
Tommy Great to see you posting! This is my favorite time of year. Hey what is your opinion on the Burton Custom Camber 150? I am about the same size & Shape as you, as have narrowed it down to that board. Wanted to see if you have any recommendation or favorites? Thank you!
Cannot for the life of me seemed to hold a straight line on my toe Edge. I almost always start getting pulled further to my right. Lately I've been experimenting a bit by opening up my front knee so that it's pointing more down the fall line, so that my body is facing forward slightly following my knee. (Not counter - rotated) That seems to help counteract the boards inclination to turn).
Is this Copper Mt?
Hey how can I buy those benetek clothing
Gaining speed on a narrow track is a very big challenge. Hopefully the drills in this video will help to get more comfortable.
So I snowboard at hyland MN the and there is a 55 foot jump on a smaller hill and I cannot clear it and I broke my ankle last time
Yooo my doodddd
@@tommiebennett dude I’ve been great! Watched both ur new vids today! Was wondering whether your gonna try the new union ultras this season?
i feel influenced to go fast.
Question: just to understand ,when your switching from edge to edge , quickly, what stops you from catching an edge at that moment.? Im really trying to learn how to sb faster down the MT
When your board is pointing downhill the side cuts of the board make it easier to initiate side to side turns. Thats why when you are initiating a turn u want ur board to naturally point downward first and then u apply pressure to turn. You are basically at this step when going fast - ur board is facing downwards and you can move side to side easier by using ur knees to dig the board into the snow and staying centered without leaning, that allows u to not catch an edge. This applies only to small quick edge switches.
It's the quick edge to edge that leaves virtually no time in between to "catch an edge". Technically speaking, you are catching the opposite edge over and over (as you switch from edge to edge), but with control because you have fully committed to that opposite edge each time.
So I have bad ankles but I really want to learn how to jump what's the best why to start?
Learn to ollie on flat. Then over small bumps. Eventually small jumps or side hits
I would show how to slow down too, I personally fly and slide and have super spectacular crashes off a cliff every time I break my speed record 😂💀
I have a question, and I really hope this doesn't come off as annoying or trying to be smart as - cause I'm really not. Right at the end of your ride (09.22) you make a full stop, where you twist your opper body (this is something I tend to do). And I'm watching your videos, trying to figure out if this i like a no-go, in general. So is this just a tiny detail, that I should normally try to avoid doing myself, or is that a good way to make a full stop in certain situations?
Technically, he's keeping his upper body as it was while twisting his lower body. He did this to slow down, while still watching where he is going. There is nothing wrong with this maneuver, if your goal is to slow down.
When your going down the hill fast on a flat surface. Do you try to keep a small edge or do you keep your board flat?
ALWAYS keep a small edge, or you are destined to catch an edge!
Tommie, what causes speed wobble? I feel like I am flat on the board but once I hit over 35mph and I am not on an edge my boards wiggles ….
Camber boards tend to grip the snow better than other shapes but speed wobbles can start at high speeds for just about everyone- it just depends on the board, the riding stance, and the speed.
I've ridden a bit above 70mph on a board and you really need to make sure the run is clear- even hitting small hucks will launch you 30-40 feet at that speed. It feels pretty scary on most boards to get much above 50mph and I wouldn't even attempt much above 40mph on certain boards.
Best advice at speed is to always be slightly on edge as Tommie was saying- 10% or so. If you try to ride flat at speeds above 50mph, you'll probably take a hell of a fall at some point.
@@AlanLamb11 this excellent perspective. and I feel the same way.
above 50mph, safely (1st), most people are chosing agressive binding angles, (definitely no duck), directional shapes, forward lean etc.
Not saying you *have* to do that to go that fast, but that most people are probably doing those things (if theyre putting safety 1st)
No one: EVERYTHING MUST BE PERFECT!
me, and intellectual: but per-
No one: PERFECT!?!?!
Have you ever clocked your top speed with a GPS?
@@tommiebennett After watching this video I can’t wait to work on my control for higher speed and start getting back into it again, i’ve been pretty fast a few times but kind of scared myself, and haven’t tried much since (61mph PR)
nice as it turns to blue diamond, the count becomes lower in my practice lol...then there are spots beyond a knoll where no human should try to stop--we are talking icy hard pack.
I do 15 kph. youre welcome
run from the yellow jackets...not the cops
Just nuking it
I don't like fast.
I like cruising speed.
(But speed is about control)
anyone else tryna hit 100kmh this season?
I ll be trying and propably post a video of me trying to do that (with a speedometer)
"why would you want to go fast?"
Strange question...
Looks like that poser Buckhouse copied your video
I smoke all you guys.
😂😂
I spaced for the first explanation of what to do. Too wordy, not enough English bruh. Layman’s terms bruh
