- A lot of people start making turns on their snowboards. They start riding faster and faster. Some people even start hitting the terrain park. However, They are still beginners on their snowboard because they still have these four bad habits!

I have been snowboarding for about 30 years (that made me feel old to type)
Every season I have at least 1 experience that makes me feel like a beginner again.
Stay humble but keep progressing
Thank you so much for pointing out situational awareness. ( slowing down, not taking that hit). This is a constant battle we have trying to educate new riders about safety. I really hate bringing riders down in a sled injured because they didn't pay attention to the riders or skiers downhill from them.
💯 if you want to do all the cool tricks and side it’s. You have to look out for other people!
Really?
I've only been a poodle, not a redcoat, but I find it quite satisfying when reckless skiers or riders get a free toboggan ride with a nice cozy blanket, instead of the innocent people they hit. 💩
do you heart narrow stances?
1:45 How is he doing that without falling?
1:47 THERE IT IS
I've been down hill longboarding for a while but I live far away from the snow. Every winter I get so excited for my yearly snowboard trip. Thanks for making these awesome videos because my snowboarding would be so much worse without the quality advice I find on channels like this.
Been on a snowboard 23 seasons now... I do spot the noobs, in past two days, saw 4 of them struggling...but I showed them how to, gave them pointers and practice exercises. Did cost me an hour or so per person, but they got instant better, more fun with progression and so on, less "danger" to others so on so on...in my book, totally worth it🤷
Thank you for paying it forward
Dude you're a treasure. I'm a total beginner and I've been riding in Austria for three years now. Not once have I seen a single soul stop and help out a beginner, ask if they're alright or give some advice to the mistakes they make. All you get here are stupid remarks or laughter. Keep it up dude, you're a real MVP.
@@ToxicTechpriest tnx...well, that sux to hear. Always thought "mountain sport ppl" were chill. Maybe that's just in my head😂.
You should come and shred the slopes in Sweden then🏂😄🥳. Plenty of mellow ppl
Thank you for not only mentioning how to tell who's a beginner, BUT more importantly - how to amend these shortcomings.
Bro you literally explained it so well I never understood what they meant when stacking your body weight. Now I do and now I’m not a beginner anymore
Heck yeah 🤘🏼
Very strong work on that last tip for sure. Appreciate ya man!!
I just taught my nephew to snowboard and then as a recap sent him this video. Thank you. Also, great job on #5 emphasizing giving space. We just rode multiple mountains in Tahoe and the number of people buzzing within a foot of my beginner nephew was silly and dangerous as hell. I was going slow with him and people came within a foot or two of me flying by too with nothing but room on the runs to go by. A couple of them I caught up to after they almost hit us and had to provide some stern coaching about it.
Yes, I dig your vids man! I’ve been snowboarding for 32 years and I like going back to your vids keeps me humble and always learning!. I can’t thank you enough on stressing SAFETY!!! Oh Lord I lost count on yelling “ NOT A GOOD PLACE TO SIT!!”.
I was a beginner once but the guys who I rode with back then always stressed SAFETY, smart riding, know when to take a break. Even ENJOY the scenery. Snowboarding is such a blast!. Let’s keep shredding and stay out of paying hospital bills. Old School saying: Got Snowboarding Skills, No Hospital Bills!. Happy Shredding ALL!. From a Seattle Boardhead!
Will be my 4th season. But, all season I haven’t snowboarded for more than 3-5 days. In addition its always 2 years apart…i feel that im one level above everything u just pointed out! U helped me realize where to improve before hitting jumps. Thanks!!
Heck yeah! You got this 💪🏼💪🏼
I seen that edge catch coming all the way from New Mexico 😂😂😂😂😂
Right 🤣😂🤣
Really enjoying this channel, was happy to see I don't do any of these. So excited for this season
Ive literaly been feeling so inspired, watching your videos gives me back the confidence i needed to really go for my dream winter sport ❤ ill want to get all of my own stuff so i can learn properly on my own board and equipment. Im 100 percent in and so ready to do this like i did when i was 13 😂 thank you so much for all your videos and teaching you do for us.
Yes! This comment made my day. Do it and stick with it. You will be shredding soon!
@@JohnathanBuckhouse Amazing words of encouragement. ✨️ I'll be posting videos like yourself soon in no time.
Very strong 💪 work on that last tip for sure. Appreciate ya man!!
I need to work on the first three. But my situation awareness is there. Im always looking around to see where people are . To the point where I also look behind me to see where people are. Which isn't always a good thing lol.
Feels good to know I’ve progressed passed all 4 of these.
I love the educational videos!
Yes dude 🙌🏼
Useful and clearly explained. Thank you.
🙏🏼
Awesome vid, thanks!
🙏🏼
I love the tips and the message at the end of the video. 🙏🏽 What’s your honest take on the clew bindings and have you tried Nidecker Supermatics? Me and my wife want to invest and on the fence which one to buy.
Reason #1- your watching this channel😊
No, this has nothing to do with that
I mean your watching the channel 🤔
Ive been boarding 20 years, shred park big mountain pow and piste pretty hard, worked 10 years as a SB instructor....and i love watching JB for the shred progression.
I watch because I'm advanced at certain aspects, but still have certain weak points I'm trying to brush up on. Also, I love hearing his reviews of different mountains.
I learned to snowboard in the 90’s. LOVE this channel! Am I an expert? No, I still have lots of room to improve and grow. That’s why I love Johnathan and his daily videos. It’s amazing what you can learn from someone when you open your mind and heart. Close minded people love to criticize others for that they are lacking. Have some grace and show some love dude
Your channel is growing, nice.
Thanks! I am stoked on it 🙏🏼
last sign is a good one! cheers
I'm trying to get back into snowboarding after 15 years of being out east... I forgot all of the basics lol. I know my legs shouldn't be this tired, excited to go back out and get back to hitting some jumps. Thanks for the tips.
Yes dude! Welcome back 🙌🏼
@@JohnathanBuckhouse Thank you.. I just posted a video from Eldora from Thanksgiving weekend if you want to check it out. By no means do I claim to be a good snowboarder 😂 I do travel videos just for fun.
I liked the surrounding at 4:25 😁😅
N. 4 - Awareness, nice one!!! 👏
I would say I’m fairly intermediate, just new to the park and still have it sit down, though I have flat feet so my feet are killing me by the first lap so sitting just helps not be in pain
Just one question about the whole sitting down thing, does kneeling to help a skier friend get their skis back on count? Cause I ride with a lot of skiers who all rent, and it is very common that the skis will not be good quality and constantly pop off. Does that count?
I’d consider myself an intermediate-advanced rider but I still have to sit down to strap in haha
Maybe try all the tricks to stay upright all day. You will like it more. I promise
Same. I can strap in standing up a couple times but after a while it actually hurts my back. I find it easier on flat ground.
Been riding for 17 years i still sit to take in the view/wait for people/rest/ let the slope below me clear of people. Standing to strap your bindings does not make you look like an expert. Only stand to strap when I’m hittin the slope instantly after getting off the lift and I’ll actually strap in while riding slowly tbh
first day can make it down blues with bails of course. it's still intimidating and I want to go back and get that clean run. come from skateboarding and ripstick background. was a TON of fun. would highly recommend specifically to anyone who likes powerslides.
Yes Jonathan buckhouse is a super good snowboarder but look at his camera guys!!! They are filming him while going the speeds he is going!! Awesome
Cody rocks!
Question on black or double black i somehow do that lean backward and it causes me to fall more often. If i just go my pace i go to fast and end up having to brake to hard, how to cope with that?
Johnthan nice new end video with the LED logo keep that around for a while!! How do I tell if I’m still a entermedit rider to expert level??
I need more mountain open to make that video. But it is coming! Also stoked you love the new outro 🙌🏼
Man I’m still just trying to learn to get up onto my heel side instead of rolling over to my toes to stand up 😂
You will get there!
I only been snowboarding once when I was 22 and now I am 39 and want to try again sooo bad with my kids.
But I live in Texas what’s the best place to take a family trip during the winter time?
Love it!!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🔥🔥🔥
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
This is a good video to also tell if your switch riding is up to snuff…sadly mine is not.
💯 you will get it though 💪🏼
Im a decent snowboarder and I still sit down to wait for jumps or strap in tbh
Maybe work on not doing that? Sitting for jumps means you are not ready to hit the jump to the other rides
This season I finally decided to buy my own snowboard but still consider myself a beginner ofc
Having your own board will help you get better though!
Same here
lol same
My biggest problem is the bending at the waist. Especially when I go for a jump. Although I think I could definitely improve all of these things.
Watching this channel as I’ve been skiing 42 years and wife 25. We are considering snowboarding but afraid my 47 year old body might get wrecked
@1:48 LOL I'm like damn. How is Buckhouse doing that without catching a ed............... NM.
Keeping fingers crossed this Dec 18th at Breckenridge I can advance to at least beginner. I hate living in FL. Trying to learn to snowboard has been rough. A stiff camber board probably hasn't helped. But this time going with a Capita Pathfinder reverse. I'll be near the quick silver chair lift. Looks like it goes up to about 5 easy green runs.
Just checked... we good!
🤣😂🤣
i sit on the ground but because I'm on my 40s and I'm just tired and need a breather! I do try to sit out of the way! :D
dude watching you peanut butter your turns made my skin crawl. and then it happened! you hooked an edge. ouch. great demo of what not to do.
I booked a lesson last trip, said I was intermediate. Dude said I wasn't.
Said I was *advanced*. 😊
Well at least I got the sticker down for sure! Haha
😂
I just started snowboarding last week - age 40 and loving it. How long on average does it take to go from beginner to intermediate? I need to work on my edge to edge turns...Ill be practicing more in the winter at some of the beginner friendly resorts in New York
It all depends how often you snowboard. Some people can do it in one ski season. Some people it could take years. Time on snow is the only way to get better faster.
Totally- it’s a fun challenge and I look forward in leveling up my skills!
Started at 43 and it took me years. But the journey really is the best part. Still learning 10 years later but it’s much more fun.
took me years to even get to maybe low intermediate mostly because i didn't get much time on the mountain and never took lessons. It wasn't something that came super naturally to me personally.
i dont agree with you on the sitting down some people are just out of shape and need to rest. i consider myself a intermediate to advance rider but i will sit down if i got to wait for friends to catch up but most of the time i dont stop. all your other points make sence tho
Agreed, I’d consider myself expert level can snowboard any terrain any slope been going since I was 10 now I’m 27 I sit down all the time to rest/wait for people/ take in the view/wait for the slope below me to clear of people. This guy seems intermediate to me lol
Your sticker honestly gives me superpowers when I snowboard.
Yes 😂
i go with both ends At both firest and like plowing and try turn i think i am lil bit chicken here l to try turn and how and when to turn lol.. i love snowboarding otherwise.. i go to my hills no matter how i do it..i still think is fun :D
Ive been riding for 15 years and still drag my hand and get super low 😂😂😂 way more fun
My belly gets in the way when trying to strap in standing up, so I sit down and I'm deffinetly not a beginner lol.
60 and rode black diamonds last week and never fell. I didn't book 'em, but I got work and kids so I'm not trying to accidentally bang myself up. I'm fine with that protective intermediate thing for now. Good stuff though. Respect.
Also, the better you get the less tired you get. It helps to be solid on single blacks and tough blues, because you're not wearing yourself out struggling. You're just gliding and not afraid of anything.
1 Sign You're Still a Beginner Snowboarder: clumsy little three-year-olds are spreading more butter than you are.
Am I a beginner if I can easily ride double blacks but can only do 180s off jumps and side hits?
yes i'd say so! keep working at it, you got this!
Reason #2: If you were riding with my family (all skiers) you would knee or sit a lot. 😅 And not because they are bad skiguys… they just really relaxed and chillin‘ while riding the slopes 😂 In a 220 km slope-area you don‘t want to lose them 😊
1:47 LOL
🤘🏼
I've only been snowboarding a couple of times but I'm ready to come out if beginner
the only time i bend over on my snowboard is when i go down a long af run and my knees and upper legs just kill me at the end of it so i just bend over until i get on the lift
I be sittin cuz I'm out of shape .. not because I don't have the skill lol
🤣😂
100% LOL
"Intermediate to advanced snowboarders are always aware of their surroundings."
Well, I'll remember to avoid getting too close to pros, then.
lol
Looks like I will always be a beginner just I'm not flexible to strap in while standing
I have the same board, I must be at least intermediate 😂
harder than a 360 on flat ground right now
bro what 😭
Lol
Knew I was missing something. No evo sticker 🤦♂️
Oh no!!!! We can fix that 😂
Man the snow sucked when you filmed this
Everyone sits, just do it next to a slow sign or a spot you think is unlikely someone is going to flatten you.
Definitely, if you re going to sit, do it in a safe spot!
My form is sadly not that perfect but it is not that bad and I don't do those other things, so think that I am an oke boarder
👍🏻👍🏻
🤘🏼
You’re also a beginner if you put your bindings on the wrong feet. We didn’t do that Day 1 of Season 1….😂😂😂
🤣😂🤣
I don’t sit on the ground, but can’t resist a bench, am I a beginner😅??
Benches rock lol
bro just humbled me
You will get there 🤘🏼
@@JohnathanBuckhouse appreciate it bro, my ski season starts soon. 🙏
This mountain is called Steven’s Pass
3:04 a view better than the actual view
So last week I was on the hill, and I yelled at some sitters that they're beginners. They skiied up to me and beat the crap out of me with snow. I don't think that tip is correct.
I clicked on the video therefore I’m still a beginner
😂
Reason 99999999999, Your taking up the run with your snow booty😂
😂
My guy I don’t sit on the ground because I’m bad, I sit on the ground because my legs are jelly after 20 runs
It's more work to stand up off the ground 🤷♂️ Trust me, staying off the ground the whole day will get you one more run at the end of the day.
If you never wanna sit, try skiing. 😉
Whats up!
Dude 🙌🏼
I like sitting. I’m old man.
gotta disagree with the sit on the ground part, unless your leg made of steel, you gonna get tired no matter what, I do average 20 run a day, with about 20 gazillion tricks each run, my leg need rest every half a run
Heck yeah 👍🏻
Me noob for life
Every first run of the season definitely feels like I'm a beginner 😅😂
You must be an expert Next episode.. 'How you know you're an expert snowboarder' and you ride off a cliff...🤣
damn still a beginner I guess since I don't have a sticker :(
Sorry 😂 You can fix that though!
I cant straighten my knees fully ever. I tried today before my first run today with my board on. I could barely do it standing still. Always have your knees bent and your right never sitdown. You look like a noob!! lol. Sometimes i have to rest my legs though l, so i get it.
as someone who surfs i see correlation with snowboarding and surfing in technique.
but seeing a snowboarding carving while just mainting a standing body position and not doing any vissable body movements makes it seem like you do turns flawless and without effort, but it looks ugly as hell.
style is everything combined with technique, therefore im still doing bottom turns with body crouched, just like in surfer.
in my opinion it looks way better and stylish, cause its technique.
0:34 something like this, but without touching the ground, more bended knee's and arm bend in.
damn no need to call me out like that bro
If you can't carve properly you're a beginner no matter how good you might be on a rail, in the park or in the air.
💯
first one!!
On it!
#2 you wear clew bindings
Explain?
I disagree with your second point that if you can't carve you're still a beginner. Carving is something that takes time to learn after mastering edge control but you can easily get around the mountain without it. Beginners cannot so I believe it's not required to be considered an intermediate rider
I'm Noob
All good! You will get better 🤘🏼
Lol im the newb making wide ass turns 😅 srry pro bois
lol
Lol im fat so i have to sit down alright dont judge me
😂
If sitting on the ground is a beginner thing then 99.9% of the snowboarders are beginners coz that's what they all do, sit in the middle of the run lol
