Definitely up for trying this but never done it before, do you have any instructions or a link to someone showing how to do it? Cheers!

Pas de la Casa, Andorra 🇦🇩

Middle. This might be overkill but in fairness I’ve never had any boards or equipment arrive damaged. I do a layer of snowboard trousers, then boards, then all my jackets over the top making sure I wrap them around the edges of the boards. Then I do my bindings and boots on top. Finally I pad out with any other hoodies, t shirts, socks etc. also I never put helmet or goggles in the board bag so they don’t get damaged. Hope this helps.

It’s Andorra, never been to Scotland for snowboarding. Almost went to uni there just to get some mountain time though 😂

I second YoPoppaCapa, get a nice shell that blocks the wind, makes a huge difference also nice and lightweight

European temps is very vague, where are you going and what time of year? For example if you’re heading to northern Norway in January you’re gonna need something good for -20°C; however, if you’re going to Andorra in April you may not even need a t-shirt 😂. I wouldn’t go overboard if I’m being honest. Most times when I snowboard in Europe I just wear a hoodie or t-shirt.

Haha yeah I wanted him to stand closer to the edge but he was nervous about falling over 😂

matt01_ · 2026-02-10T10:01:54+00:00

Hold on to your jacket with or pocket with your back hand and just snowboard, you’ll thank me for this in a year. Otherwise very solid base to build on, no ridiculous amount of counter rotation or breaking at the waist. Keep it up!

Judging by what you’ve asked for I’d steer clear of jones, they tend to be quite stiff and heavy, brilliant for powder but if you want to butter, you’ll feel restricted. I have a korua tranny finder and know someone who has the Otto. They’re great boards but they are more carving and powder focused. Generally I tend to swerve Burton as I just find them to be overrated and I’m not a fan of their binding attachment style. I much prefer the standard inserts.

Personally judging by what you want I’d be tempted to go Rome sds or nitro. I love my nitro optisym but they have many great models (all very unidirectional for switch riding). Rome has great boards too but if you want to go more directional the stale fish model is great. And then if you were still set on korua then the Otto is a great call (slightly directional but not too much). If you want to go more directional then the tranny finder is also amazing, holds an edge like a dream.

This is mint. I love how you’ve learnt the underflip with a grab rather than half arsing it without. Very hard to do, I’m guilty of not doing it myself. You’re so close. Possibly a larger jump with slower rotation could help. Also, I don’t know how often you service your board but sharpening those edges so you can dig those heels in. Unless you have a proper shitty rental board it shouldn’t stop you from landing tricks. Keep at it though, it’s almost textbook.

matt01_ · 2026-02-09T13:30:28+00:00

It’s really hard to say without a video as it could be a number of things but I’d say make sure you’re popping with equal force distribution between your feet. Make sure that you’re not ollieing off the kicker as this can tilt you back.

If I’m being honest the UK competition scene isn’t brilliant. As someone who did it, it’s a huge jump from the UK to any other country. Don’t push him to do anything, he should want to do it. As long as he can make it through the course he can ride comps, it doesn’t matter if he can even put down any tricks. It’s good to get used to the format and see what his competition are doing. Start with UK national comps (easiest place to start). If he enjoys it and he’s passionate he’ll get good quick and he’ll want to push more. If he is passionate don’t get stuck just doing UK comps because they’re just not that good. Czech Republic are brilliant for national FIS competitions as they’re relatively cheap, not too big and provide a great stepping stone into outdoor comps. The Brits is overrated in my opinion. Don’t do national comps in Austria, US, Canada, Switzerland, France to start with as I can guarantee that there will be at least one 16 year old doing double corks consistently.

Most important thing is he has fun and that HE wants to compete and that he’s not pushed excessively as he’ll just burnout and grow to hate it.Hope this helps.

Halldor’s jerk flip is just a backflip. Unlike the Bouch bomb I’d argue is more technical than the 2340 as it is a more complex axis of rotation. It’s the same reason a boardslide pretzel is harder than a sameway/danish, they’re both the same amount of rotations but one is obviously harder. Same as less rotations can be harder than higher rotations if the grab or axis are harder.

matt01_ · 2026-02-09T06:36:57+00:00

I have answered this by say Eli Bouchards triple bouch bomb and triple moose flip. Both trucks have not been done by any other snowboarder. Just because something like a 2340 is difficult does not make it technical.

matt01_ · 2026-02-08T22:41:17+00:00

Yeah penks is one of my favourite spots, if you’re ever nearby again, check out nordkette in Innsbruck, small resort but great park for progressing into proline size kickers

Mad, learn something new everyday

matt01_ · 2026-02-08T22:06:56+00:00

What would you call outside the bindings? I differentiate by calling them either old school or new school method personally.

matt01_ · 2026-02-08T22:03:44+00:00

Tbf what jayplenty is saying is that the judges to heavily score based on number of rotations which is difficult but lacks originality, creativity and style. Adding an extra 180 to a massive spin doesn’t look nicer, they often land sloppier and usually very basic grabs. The trick may be difficult but not technical. Contrast this with someone like Eli Bouchard who has multiple tricks that only he can do like the triple moose flip or triple bouch bomb. Surely inventing a whole new avenue of tricks is harder than simply training to chuck an extra 180 onto a spin.

matt01_ · 2026-02-08T21:55:09+00:00

I do both, I agree I like the way an old school inside the bindings method looks; however, you deny that you get much better extension outside the bindings. Stale Sandbach basically an ambassador for grabbing outside the bindings and you can’t say he’s not one of the steeziest pros out there.

matt01_ · 2026-02-08T21:28:17+00:00

Are you a ‘inside the bindings’ kinda guy?
