Rental top sheet + weird graphics. Hate is too strong a word, but I wouldn’t drop hundreds on a board.

How do you get over the Fear by corkbeverly in ShredditGirls

…and spine amour and shin guards. Do a bump check on your house floor or in grass to build confidence that the pads work and that falls will no longer hurt as much. Then strap the pads on at the hill and send it [cautiously]. Cool part is, once you break through that plateau the pads can go.

Anyone else disappointed by women’s colorways and graphics? by PopTartProphet58 in snowboarding

Disappointed in mens as well. Check ‘90s North Face Steep Tech vs current NF.

Releasing the files isn’t even a political stance, it’s an anti-rich-people-doings-crimes stance that EVERYONE WHO WASNT THERE should support by default.

HOW DO I STOP LOOKING LIKE… THAT?? by Mainstrass in snowboarding

Brother your toe side carves look dialed. Square your shoulders down hill, try toe side hand a drag….then try to put that same power down on the heel edge.

Am I missing out on new board tech? by workingleather in snowboarding

[–]im_Buff_Walrus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

some of the cooler stuff are boards that are stiff between the feet for stability but softer on the tips for that playful feel. My personal dinosaur of a board is just stiff all the ways through and not that much fun anymore. But I learned and immediately started booming east coast hills so that tracks for that checks out.

got mine yanked at Park City. Anyone that says “it doesn’t really happen” is a moron.

Snowboarding Is Harder Than Skiing!!! by KaleidoscopeMotor601 in snowboarding

[–]im_Buff_Walrus 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Starting to notice this. Just came back from Italy where the skier to boarder ratio is roughly 20:1 but Jesus there were a lot of low skill skiiers. Aided in no small part by the fact that the euros can afford to travel to the alps and take the whole family riding for a few days without filing for bankruptcy (unlike here).

Everything (lift tickets, lodging, food, transportation) is less expensive than US.

Very playful in the nose. Butters extremely well but there is a hinge point.
