That’s so much more work for the skier because the snowboarder can’t hop and get pulled at the same time. So you’re essentially just making the skier do all the work
@@oleg72333 on that surface there? Easily would have worked, or…unclip your rear foot and skate it. Much less unnecessary energy and effort being used that way.
This is where my skier friends would say “this is an example of why skiing is better” and to that I say it’s apart of the immersion and makes the experience better.
@SofieSillemannskiing is easier to learn and harder to master. It takes a lot more physical insurance to learn snowboarding. Typically the age for ski lessons at a mountain starts younger than snowboarding for that reason.
My solution is Burton step-on bindings. Any situation similar to this I reach down pull the lever, step out and skate to where I will slide downhill, then I just step back on and go. It's rare to in
Nah the worst is when you are approaching a flat area where you KNOW you need to maintain speed, and catching a damn edge just before it. It doesn't happen to me much anymore but when I was still in learning it would happen constantly, and I would always let out a frustrated loud curse.
Use your nose and tail to bounce and get momentum, if it’s not to uphill u can do this and by the flex / pressure of the nose and tail it acts like a trampoline and u can bounce around using less energy.
I snowboarded for 10+ years. I recently switched to skiing and things like this are what make skiing so much more convenient. It's also great being able to sit facing forward on the lift and not having one foot dangling and getting in the way. Getting off the lift and not having to strap in and just go immediately is great as well. I also don't worry about getting stuck on flat spots either, I remember having to pick up enough speed to get me through the flat spots.
The only time this happened to me is on the flats at my local mountain during the end of the season when it was sunny and semi slushy out, but even then I’d either penguin walk or just skate the rest of the way
My friends & I love snowboarding much more but unless we’re out w skiers we usually switch off on being the skier & the tugboat lol it pays to know how to do both well!
Thats one of the reasons i have step on bindings But in powder i hate the bindigns bc if I take my board of for something i can’t get in anymore if there is too much snow in the binding
I don’t I got the clew bindings and never have had to do that since. If anything I just pull my right foot out and start pushing than step back in while I’m sliding. Also if you don’t have step on bindings the easiest way to walk with you board is to twist your waist left to right. Which will essentially twist your legs and you’ll move faster that way. It is an ab workout though if you do it a lot.
This season I got myself new gear and strap in bindings. It feels as discovering new dimension, how you can just push yourself down the slope and bind the back leg in the same moment
That's the second worst part. First worst is when you're going down a trail and get to a long flat stretch and come to a stop... and then you have to un-clip and skate for a good 2 minutes before you get to slope again.
That board is in desperate need of wax, big time. A fresh wax job and that would have been a hop or two and glide away. And it's sometimes much simpler and faster to just undo the back binding instead of trying to hop
1) Face forward like a skier 2) apply pressure on your nose while leaning forward from right shoulder 3) pop off of nose, land on tail, apply same pressure to tail lean forward on left shoulder pop off of tail then repeat. This is generally unnecessary. You'll gain speed if you get above down
Messed up soo bad the other day, took a path that was too flat so I veered off the path and went down the hill into a ravine. Yeaa that ended up too deep and I had to climb out...
1.fresh wax.
2.penguin walk.
3.skate damn you.
4.have skier friends.
Perfect ^
Having a Skier friend is the correct answer .
@@dbrockme Nah, push harder on top 3 :-) and you don't need friends
5. Inch worm
🤣💯
That's why if you have skies you don't just stand there and film a TikTok. You help them out by dragging them with your poles
Respect ❤️ I love when everyone on the mountain just helps out whoever needs it no matter what they ride 👍
No, you made your choice, I made mine.
why is it their job to drag them. they made the choice to snowboard
That’s so much more work for the skier because the snowboarder can’t hop and get pulled at the same time. So you’re essentially just making the skier do all the work
OOOOOOR they can just clip out ffs
just penguin walk. It was one of the first additional things i learnt after finishing all basics. Quick and easy ground travel is a blessing
Penguin does not work for climbing

@@evor6s I can do penguin only on flat ground
@@oleg72333definitely penguin walkable.
@Oleg K There's not a slope there at least that i can tell. Even if there is a slight incline, that doesn't mean you wouldn't be able to.
the ultimate penguin wak left the chat
My thoughts😅
I'm trying to learn it but I'm not good at it yet 😭
Penguin walk should be the first thing people learn when snowboarding lmaooo
@@jtb5867 there's also the scoot which i think is much easier
@@jtb5867 penguin walk be hard af if your boards to stiff though
I get it happens. But can tell that board needs a fresh wax.
This is where my skier friends would say “this is an example of why skiing is better” and to that I say it’s apart of the immersion and makes the experience better.
Whats even worse is when youre going really slow and you get stuck on an edge lol
Yep.. ass over teakettle in the slowest and most embarrassing way possible.
Never knew that struggle. Either penguin walk or strap in by the downhill slope instead if you haven’t figured out the penguin walk yet.
Doesn't really work on long flat traverses (typical in the Alps, maybe it's different in the states)
A true shredder don't know this struggle😜✌️
Thanks I was looking for the first person who actually can snowboard 😂

Penguin walk out, crazy frog in.
Especially when you have crappy bindings, and it looses them

Lol not everyone is trying to spend $400 on lazy bindings
@@calebhogue2619most snowboarders are rich kids. How can you complain about $400 when you’re spending $200 a day on lift in a $700 a night resort?
@@mesabog2not everybody…
Unclip one leg and go for it... just that easy. I don't understand why there are so mich people put there struggling to overthink their possibilities
Its like skiers who dont ‘skate’ on the flat parts, and just push themselves forward with their poles lol
Not the gallop 💀

Or someone cuts you off out of the trees or merging. Or when skiers are just having a picnic in the middle of a cat track.
Classic event getting to walk 150 yards with a sore ass and a bad mood
Yeah but thats just the beginning. I rarely catch a edge anymore from just riding. Im scared at jumps still tho 😂 cant even do 360
This is why i try to learn Penguin walk
Use your nose and tail to bounce and get momentum, if it’s not to uphill u can do this and by the flex / pressure of the nose and tail it acts like a trampoline and u can bounce around using less energy.
Not straight but sideways I mean lol
When you gotta take a break before you run from getting to your run lol
That's when it comes handy to have fellas with skis and you can borrow their poles or at least one 😄
Penguin walk is also pretty exhausting lol
“every snowboarder” 😂 anyone else feel like this doesn’t apply to them??
Everyone’s been there at some point. Surely you’ve gotten stuck on a cat track during a pow day
That's why its easier to have step on bindings
Yep. 👍 I use Flows and skate all the way to the edge then throw my foot in at the last minute.

This is why Burton Step-in bindings changed my whole snowboard game. Literally zero effort to clip in or out

IKR this happened to me countless times
Thats one of the reasons i have step on bindings
But in powder i hate the bindigns bc if I take my board of for something i can’t get in anymore if there is too much snow in the binding
This is why my kids all chose skis over snowboards. Plus they can keep up with ski patrol dad.
YOU KNOW WHEN I GET OFF A CHAIRLIFT MY BACK FOOT IS ALREADY IN THE REAR BINDING AND I HAVE PLENTY OF MOMENTUM TO GET GOING , I HAVE FLOW BINDINGS
So relatable omggg
lowkey, even skiing this is a nightmare. Snowboarding with it is even worse I’ve tried 😂😭
It's true I always clip in to far from the slope. The perfect spot to clip in is right at the edge to where your about to slide down the slope
That snow sounding fresh thooo I want that snow right now
Number one reason why I’m upgrading to burton step on bindings this season
i usually ski but have a snowboard and have like 10 hrs on it this year- went a little too fast friday night and broke my arm
THIS IS SO RELATABLE
the worst thing is skiers stepping on your board in the ski lift que.
Skis are the superior traversal platform but i do love my awkward hops
So true! Bit you get the hand of it after a while
Thank goodness my friend taught me how to penguin walk when I first started snowboarding
Reminds me of my friend's daughter. They nicknamed her fun bunny. She's always strapped in and always hopping around like a rabbit
I don’t I got the clew bindings and never have had to do that since. If anything I just pull my right foot out and start pushing than step back in while I’m sliding.

Lifelong skateboarder and I wanna snowboard so bad! A decent set up is like a band tho 😢
One of the only times I actually like my clip ins
Gotta learn that sway walk baby!!
IMO the worst part is the inevitable wrist injuries lol.
That's my best friend the whole weekend in the Swiss alps 😂😂. And I'm on skis like come on tink tink
Your are so right I hate when that happens
Just do the pinguin walk! Best way to do it and not that exhausting at all
I've never snowboarded and seen the clouds like that! That's damn high! Bucket list!
That’s why I make sure to clip in right where it starts to go downhill
I got stuck for like 7 minutes on a straight stretch up on Schweitzer Mountain and did that and have never been so exhausted in my life.. 😂
Bro we got the same skies there awsome!!! I love mine!!
This is why I can’t wait to use the step on system 😅
Omg I do the same thing but I take off the binders and put them back on
This is so true😅
Happened to me in park city last week…let’s just say my board needs a MUCH NEEDED waxing
The struggle is real
I've been a snowboarder for 26 years I don't know the struggle cuz I know what I'm doing
Gold star for you you must be a professional dannnnnng.
I can confidently say I have mastered the penguin walk
Wait for it Asian Voice Over Wang Chung Wong
Ive thought about renting ski sticks just for this
Lol this is me and my girlfriend.
GF: pull me with your pole.
Me: nope, you chose this life.

You'll gain speed if you get above down
Guess I’m lucky to have had a dope friend skies , when I was in the situation she just pulled me with her batons
Duck walk, baby. I can get moving like that. Or just 1 foot. Those new step ins looking pretty good right now 😆
Messed up soo bad the other day, took a path that was too flat so I veered off the path and went down the hill into a ravine. Yeaa that ended up too deep and I had to climb out...
Sounds like cold weather wax might help too
The struggle is real.
Bro is above the clouds literally
my skier friends be halfway down the mtn already
Yep I definitely agree with you on that one
As a snow boarder I got right to the end and clip my feet there so I don,t have to hope or put one foot in and one foot out
That's when you ask for a pole pull haha
My thighs are screaming just thinking about it😭
This is why I always bring my skiier dad with me 😂
You gotta ski with a buddy anyway
May as well have then help
This is why i start apres ski at 09:30 am
Penguin walk is essential
If it’s too early just take bindings off and walk. It’s just easier that to hop for 50 yards lol
I have no problem with this because I learned the penguin walk and I have skier friends
Me 24 7 while snowboarding 😂
When you're on a new mountain
That dry powder though!
Man this voice mixed with the ignorance is infuriating. Absolutely gorgeous day out there though
I’m a snowboarder and I hate when this happens!
Then youre not really a boarder
That's when you grab your friends ski pole and make them drag you😂
It’s exhausting if you can’t actually ride and can penguin walk
Yeah I agree penguin is a great way to get around (and foundation for lots of skills). Not any fun on a stiff all-mountain or alpine board though!
Im exhausted watching and my muscles hurt😂😂😂
If I have a friend like this and they ask for my ski pole I’m tell them they shoulda picked skis
Skate, shimmy, duck walk, heavy lean, Ollie, butter, so many solutions.
Catch me shredding as a first timer tmr
I thought it was going to be catching the edge 😂
Use a Burton Step-on or a Clew binding. Problem gone, just skating necessary
Perfect step on sales vid.
