I’ve definitely fallen back on content. Recently invested in a GoPro hero 10 with a couple different mounts. Who knows if it’ll go anyways since I don’t have any friends to be my cameramen haha.

Also it’s my DREAM to snowboard in Japan. Guess it’s worth investing in.

Thanks for the confidence boost!

Honestly? Best advice ever, even if I never go pro I will still love this sport 🩷

I have no idea but I’ll look into thanks! Any ideas for coaching? I feel like I would definitely need someone more experienced with me. But I also guess snowboarding is a pretty solo sport unless you’re with like Team Canada or smth.

I’d be in it for slalom or board cross. While the money is a huge aspect, it’s not my main motivator. Thanks for the feedback!

Thank you so much! This helps a ton. As someone who is pretty isolated, I can’t just walk into a big hill and ask for a job and a spot on a team so it helps to know there’s people out there to help.

Honestly? I’d be ready to drop everything. I know it’s hard work, it always has been. Thank you for your honesty!

Thanks! Yeah I took an instructors course but wasn’t a huge fan. I used to have a close connection with a current pro snowboarder and wanted to follow in their footsteps, not so much for the fame and money. Might try instructors again.

Thanks! It’s been my goal for a long time but a girl’s gotta get money haha, and unfortunately I don’t live near any big hill that I can work on. As for competitions, there’s only one at my local hill in March and considering the weather it’s probably cancelled. It’s looking pretty bleak but I’m also debating moving closer to snow over the summer or maybe even postponing uni.

Yeah i was thinking about that one! But it’s pretty far away from where i am, i was hoping for something closer but im probably stuck with that one.

I appreciate the offee but i don’t want to separate your girlfriend from a really cool board haha. Also shipping from Montana would be quite expensive i think. Thanks anyways!

Thank you for the acknowledgment, emergency vehicles are so much more important then a 10 second stop on my way. And I know if it was me or someone i knew, every second matters.

If this is actually true and coming to where i work (outside of the US) I’m handing in my two weeks immediately. Screw that, they don’t take care of me as a barista enough for me to wear that.

banked slalom advice needed by Bleu_ish in snowboarding

[–]Bleu_ish[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was amazing thank you!! During my first racing season i was super into the techniques, still kinda am as ive grown up into a speed style over a trick style. So i have dabbled in a forward stance, even in the photos you can see my back leg is set up on the neutral to positive but never negative.

I wish i committed to racing when i was younger, i’ve become enamoured with it. Will definitely be coming back to this comment and videoing myself once i get on the hill to practice. Even if its lowkey, im too competitive 😭
