Good luck!
I'm not even a beginner but I love watching these videos
Thanks for watching 🙌
Lol same 🤦🏼♂️
Same here
same lol im going to use it to teach my friends
Same!🏂🏂🏂
So jealous of how nice this beginner slop is. These east coast bunny slopes are like diving in head first, icy and steep
Yeah pretty lucky here in alpe d'huez 👍👍
yeah over by PA. Skiers use the bunny slops so much they get packed down tight than frozen. Instead of a gentle angle down, they are way steeper than necessary but the hill itself is small. Makes terrible practice.
So jealous of that bunny flat! I'm learning at overcrowded Snowbowl in Flagstaff, AZ. Between the Phoenix desert dwelling crowd that have no equipment and are only there to loiter on the bunny slope to take selfies and the complete lack of ANY flat area....it's been trial by fire 😂
Lol I was thinking the same thing watching this. The hills I learned on in new england were straight downhill, narrow, and icy as hell. I broke a rib on the bunny slope on my second day snowboarding lol
As someone that sucks at snowboarding and starting over, THANK YOU! This is the most informative beginner video I've seen. You do a fantastic job of describing what you should be feeling and exactly what movements to make!
Thanks Adam! 🙌
You’re literally the best teacher I’ve seen, the fact that you use two beginners and have them that good in 6 hours is brilliant! My first day was awful, basics are very important
Thanks Mak 🙌
I feel a bit bad for Alice. I'd say she was learning really fast and was doing great but got completely outshadowed by Elsbeth who was unbelievably fast in progressing. Edit: Oh and you have some great insights and tips for starting to learn snowboarding. This is a really good video to watch if you want to learn to ride or learn how to teach others!
I don’t think it was about out showing each other. They’re both learning. It’s helpful to see someone make mistakes so we know what to avoid. There’s no reason to feel bad for her, not everything is a competition. They both seemed to be having fun
A few years ago I went on a snowboard camp to learn how to snowboard and the instructors had the exact same methods you have and with the exact same detailed explanations. It's so important to have instructors that can explain the physics behind the movements and not just "turn your shoulder and the board will follow" like I heard some of them do. Awesome video!
Thanks Andrea!
I'm a beginner. A very very scared & anxious begginer. Thank you for not just doing it with real beginners but the use of ON snow video & at home positioning in the video is going to be SUPER helpful for me (and others). The 'pulling the levers' analogy made me so confident. I can't put into words how much your videos are helping us beginners gain more confidence. Bravo!
Thanks so much!! Super kind words 🙏🙏😊😊
A lot of lessons with a lot of disparate teachers and no one couldn't explain me how to turn, they were all about "open and close a door with the arm" or "watch were you want to go and the board will follow" until I watched your leverage method and I was like: NOW I KNOW! Went on the mountain binded my feet and did the first linked turn than I almost cried... Thank you Malcolm
It is very dependent on the student too, we all aprehend a metaphore in a different way. To make people understand a very precise general body movement which slightly moves your mass center, you gotta start somewhere and it doesnt always produce the same result. I am no professionnal but I learned the basics to a few people. I tried to explain it alternatively with a rotative hip movement that you can "pilot" with your hands on the hips, or with a shoulder movement with both arms extended in the shoulder line, the front arm pointing at the direction you wanna go. If i go "hips and shoulders aligned, bend your knees, move your body weight on your front foot ... no, too much on the front foot ... your but is too far behind, chin up ..." I will have a frutrated student on the ground in no time. You gotta find a description of the general movement that works. The levers metaphor looks great, i wanna try that. I m glad it worked for you. Happy riding !
Hi Malcolm, although we do not know each other in person, I want to share with you that there has been an extraordinary change in my life. I just became CASI level 1 snowboard instructor in Canada.
I have watched some of your videos countless times to mimic your movements on snowboard, and learn your teaching methods so I could relay information more effectively. Your videos have been immensely valuable to say the least for my snowboarding progression in both riding and teaching abilities.
I don't know where this will lead me, but I am excited for the future.
Thank you!!!~~
This is the BEST beginner video I've seen! And I've been snowboarding for well over 15 years!!! LOL!
Thankyou, I appreciate it, and big thanks to Alice and Elspeth for taking part 🙌
Great video. No over explaining. Straight to the point. 10/10
My first time was last Monday, and the teacher was the worse, he literally spent half an hour talking about the boards and the boots, almost trying to avoid to teach us. Second time was 2 days ago, on Friday, and a friend of mine was teaching me and everything made much more sense. These girls are so lucky you are the one teaching them, next time I feel like I’ll be so much better after watching your video, thanks man
Thanks, once you get to linking turns, the progression is 🚀
Second season for me. First season I “taught” myself. It was great but definitely missed some of the fundamentals. This time around I found this video and took my first day to get all this tips and exercises and applied that that day. By the second day the improvement was so noticeable that I keep following your advice. by the 3rd day I was connecting turns and catching an edge was almost non existent. My riding was so smooth. So thank you so much
Awesome thanks Sebastian 🙌
Still a beginner, but putting my weight on my downhill foot is probably the scariest thing I had to get in the habit of; I always felt like I was going to fall forward on my face!
I've noticed that nobody suggests in their lessons for students to do some minimal body/limb stretching before starting the lesson. I think its crucial and will help from a super sore body so that the students can practice along with more stamina and less muscle aches,cramps and sores.Those things can be discouraging to beginners mentally and physically.
the difference of having a coach! i learned through a lot many youtube videos, and so in first two days that i went, i mastered the heel side fallen leaf. This video helped me to practice the toe edge fallen leaf, and i managed to then link them up together and do the basic turns! Thanks a lot. Going to read more now, and hopefully be able to say "yes, i know snowboarding" by the end of this winter. This video was amazing!
One emphasis to everyone: Put the weight on the front leg!
I like that you are being “picky”, it’s helping a lot to understand why certain postural changes are beneficial.
My girlfriend just had her first week of snowboarding. Unfortunately group lessons weren't available, so she had to make do with a private lesson at the start of the week, which took her right up to the point of learning how to link turns. I tried to teach her turning throughout the next few days, and then she had another private lesson which was next to useless. The next morning (unfortunately on the last day!) I took her out to practice using your technique. Thirty minutes later, after only two small runs holding her hand, and then she was already off and linking turns by herself!
Well done Rob! Happy to have helped 😀
Ive been snowboarding for 6 years now but honestly this video does a great job remembering some basics you tend to forget over time. Great Video
Excellent video that essentially prepared me to snowboard for the first time at 54 years old. I took lessons on the mountain, but this video (and all his other videos) really helped with the theory and prepared me to actually make S turns by the second day.
Brilliant happy to help 😊🙌🏼
Im probably like alice so i was cheering for the whole time. Great to see her improve over time!
I'm actually going snowboarding for the very first time in about 2h and now, this video pops up. Coincidence?
Could not have timed it any better, Malcom! Thank you!
good luck!!
Haha awesome, enjoy it!
I hope you'r enjoying your time! Give us your feedback :p
Yaaasss dude! How did it go?
@@BlueCrystal1996R An update, as requested:
Such an amazing first experience! Definitely doing this again asap! I took a short introductory lesson and it really helped to have someone there, correcting me as I went on.
I ate A LOT of snow today, but that's just part of the process. It happened mostly on my toe edge, as I didn't lift my heels enough/correctly. Trying to think of Malcolm's explanation about toe edge position, the last few runs went a bit smoother.
At first, I found it difficult to initiate the traverse on both edges (the slope wasn't very wide either, didn't really help). It was rather difficult to keep myself centered on the board AND put more weight on my front foot AND keeping my knees bent. But the last few runs went a bit smoother.
I also encountered another issue. When I was on my toe edge and trying to think of Malcolm's example, I didn't bend my knees enough while trying to push out my hips. In turn, my shoulders went over the toe edge and it made the board slip out from under me on multiple occasions. I hope to work on this in the near future.
Leaning on the front foot is a challenge, especially when you start picking up speed. Something to work on for sure.
Malcolm's absolutely amazing analogy of ski poles/levers has helped immensely! It really helped me to initiate turns a bit easier, but I do need to work on the timing. Wrong timing messed a few turns and made me catch an edge on multiple occasions.
However I was able to link up a few of them, thanks to the tips I picked up in this gem of a video. A few very, very crude S-shapes were made, I'd call that a small win for my part.
Thanks mate ive snowboarded since i was a kid and today is my first day snowboarding with my beginner little sister, this vid helps a lot
Brilliant glad to hear it 😊
First and only snowboard lesson was awful, the instructor barely ran us through braking and heelside leaf. Since then it's been youtube tutorials and trial and error. 9 days on snow and I've finally got my linked turns going. This video is a godsend.
Smooth sailing from here on in 👌
Wow! My early snowboarding endeavors (1995-2000) would have been so different had we had resources like this. So well articulated better than any instruction i got 20+ years ago and so helpful for me to articulate all of this to my daughter.
The Leaver method - hands down the best explanation to a total beginner like me. Watched tons of videos and first time I'm really getting it how the mechanics work!
This is the video I send to people I’m teaching to snowboard. Having a little knowledge on how edges work and body position makes teaching so much easier
My wife use to snowboard and she’s getting back into it and I’ve been once 15 years ago, I’m 30 now and I’m gonna be buying my first setup soon, these videos have been a blessing
Wow they did amazing! My first day was falls galore. Well done to Alice and Elsbeth! I'm really impressed. But it helps to have a great teacher. I'm brushing up on my basics before going out again. Thanks!
Yeah they did fantastic! We rewatched this recently and I'm so impressed how quickly they picked it up!
Your lesson is amazing Malcolm! I didn't get to linking turns like this until my 4th or 5th day snowboarding (on my own). Alot of people should watch this video.
simply amazing!
Phenomenal video. Really wish i had something like this when I was trying to learn.
I swear Elsbeth is better after 6 hours than I am after 2 years.
Will definitely be practicing whilst thinking about these techniques.
One thing I would add to any reading this comment....
Buy or hire the right gear.
I purchased an older, 2nd hand snowboard rather than hire, and I believe it made it far more difficult to learn on(due to camber profile and flex).
Other than that, get as much time as you can on the snow, and ENJOY!
Thank you so much for the awesome content, keep up the great work.
Thankyou, and yes, the right gear is a must! 👍
Wow, best video I've seen about snowboarding. I love your reassurance...
I'm an AASI level 1 instructor and getting students to link turns always seems like the biggest hurdle. Gonna try your technique. Thanks and great video!
Thanks so much!! Hope it helps 🙌🏼
today i rented a board just to get a feel but no instructor was wanting/could teach me and oh my god is it much harder than skis, ive learned a new level of respect for snowboarders hahaha... but fr i will learn one day and hopefully i will be able to get a teacher and not just an amazingly informative video! thanks man this is really useful
edit: im making the instructors seem like they where shoving me away, their main job is the ski's so some have never touched a board and all i did was ask for any tips/tricks when i came face to face while we where on the rope pull on the bunny slope (the smallest one, still steep tho if i knew its way easier to grasp on flats first i would have :) )
I love your videos. I am such a mechanical learner. Your lever analogy helps so much in visualizing the turns.
Amazing 🙌🏼 for some people it really clicks with them
Thats excellent, i will coach my family and 1 friend this season when i get the opportunity to be on the slope so this will help a ton
Finally one good snowboarding tutorial about turns! CAN'T THANK U ENOUGH
Thanks Eva, good luck with your snowboarding 🏂
This is such a helpful video thank you for taking the time to make this!!
This is a tremendous video! been snowboarding for years and am about to take my kids for the 2nd time, acting as their instructor (want them to have the memory of "daddy taught me") and this video is absolute gold. thank you Malcolm !!! UPDATE - just got back from a very very successful snowboard vacation thanks to this amazing video. Thank you again Malcom.
Amazing!! Happy to help 🙌🙌🙌
What a great video! And these two young ladies picked up so well!! I'm currently snowboarding in Bansko & man I fell down soo many times linking turns.... I wish I had/have a great instructor like Malcolm!
Yeah els and Alice did great!! Thanks for watching 😊
Ive had a 12 year layoff from boarding hence why I'm here. There aren't many good snowboard instruction TH-camrs out there.....BUT you Sir are definitely one of the good ones, I started boarding 22 years ago and apart from a few new techniques (which look like great additions to what i was taught) this is exactly how I was taught over 2 decades ago. Simple, concise information. Yourself and some American/Canadian youtubers are keeping it old skool.👍👍
Glad to help! I'll be back in about a month with more vids!
This is really great material. I'm off for my first go on a mountain this week and hope to be linking turns like this by the end. Great tutoring!
This is so helpful when it comes to teaching students. Will definitely be using these analogies and visuals!
Great video,,amazing results after only 6hr...
those look like perfect slopes for learning!
Excellent video and very informative and helpful. Looking forward to getting out in the snow soon once lockdown here in Austria is over.
I taught someone how to snowboard today using this tutorial and he was nearly linking turns by the end of the session. Malcolm's a g.
I have learned more by watching your tutorials compared to my winter ski course hahah Thank you so much!
This video is fantastic
This is the best snowboard teacher.
Thank you 🙏🙏
thorough and clear explanation!
Thanks!
Always interesting and a massive source of info. Brilliant. Great teacher. See you on the slopes.
Thanks Mark!
First season for me. I watched and rewinded this video several times before my first snowboard trip, and started going down the greens with S turns consistently by the 2nd day. Thank you for teaching the fundamentals so clearly and beautifully.
The one connection
Awesome!!! Happy this helped! Sounds like you smashed it 🙌🏼🙌🏼
that girls progression in one day is insane. Took me 3 sessions just to do falling leaf and slow turns lol
incredible
I will never undervalue taking a lesson
Something I wish i would've done when I first started to snowboard.. took my a dozen trips over a few years to get to the stage those girls are at.
Great info! Thanks.
Happy to help 😊😊
yours are the best Snowboard lessons around! great job
Thank Angelo!
Great video! Much effort needed to create a good tutorial like this. Well done and thank you Melcolm🙏
Keep them coming 🤙🏂
Thanks Elad!
Amazing progress! If I ever wanted to learn snowboarding I would definitely work though these tips.
🙌
This video is not only helpful for a beginner, but it also gives a lot of details for understanding how it - snowboarding - actually “works”.
Thanks 🙌🙌
Connecting turns on day 1! Amazing! Took me 4 days
Time to start Snowboarding :D Thanks this is helpful. I'm going for lessons next week and I need to make sure to not be completely lost
Amazing video! It was very helpful to see your explanation and body position on the side. I just finished my first season with some improvements, but it was still hard to link turns. I will definitely save this for my next season. Thank you!!!
All the snowboard videos I watch on TH-cam this one is the best thanks you very much!!!!!
Thanks! 🙌
Wish I'd seen this before my first time snowboarding! Watched quite a few other videos but none were as informative as this one.
I've gotten better over the last few times but still obviously missing some important fundamentals.
Learned so much watching this and now I'm excited to try them out in my next snowboarding run. Thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
Than you malcolm.You are the best instructor
Thankyou!
That view in the background is stunning!
Yeah alpe d'huez has all the views 🤩
A very detailed tutorial, it helps a lot! Thank you!
Thanks Leo 🤩
Yah you are a God explaining snowboard skills. Thank you
Cheers Christian 🤩
I just had my first snowboard lesson at Chill Factore which I really enjoyed. It definitely helps to have had a lot of snow experience on skis. There is a lot of carryover so far.
When I was first learning to snowboard, I took group lessons. They started us off on the magic carpet. They taught us how to side slip left and right, but never anything about going straight with the foot unstrapped. The first time anyone ever did this was off the chair lift. The instructors took the 3 best students up first; it didn't go very well.
Everywhere my friends took me, i ended up just learning from the top of a run lol. Took 3 good days of trial and error before i came to videos to learn the basics or anything i wouldve missed.
This video alone has helped me a lot to learn snowboarding. I started learning in december and can confidently traverse blue hills now. Yesterday, I started practicing my switch riding and am coming back to this video as a beginner switch rider 🙂
Well done Alice and Elsbeth!! Super speedy progress 🤙
🙌
I am looking forward since May, when I found this video, to practice this on the slopes! Almost time!!
Also taking lessons but that's in January.
Thank you, hope some of the "teachers"will watch this. ✌🏻
🙌
Good video dude, making some easy points to follow when getting people started. Cheers!
Awesome!!
This actually gonna be clutch, i’ve been a skiier for my whole life lookin into learning snowboard. with this video i can learn like its a literal class. Thank you so much
🤩
Exactly the same. Today was my first day of snowboarding after 22 years of skiing. All I did was watching this video. Towards the end of the day I started to link the edges. Learning it by myself is thanks to Malcolm!
I love that you start on toe edge for the sideslip, to me this is the single most important tip in this video. Once a beginner can sideslip on toes with good control, the rest of the progression is easy. I suggest dragging fingers on snow to learn toe edge as it allows learning edge control without fear of falling or the instructor needing to hold hands with student. Once student can glide smoothly backward on toe edge while dragging fingers , stop them and get them to do the same thing while standing tall. From that point forward three key things will make everything else come together. 1. Stand tall 2. Hands don't move. 3. Even weight on both feet. I spend my lessons repeating these three points to students. Great video!
Thank you for the detailed, well explained steps! Just got my first 4 hours in without a teacher (2x 2h indoor thing). First 2 hours were a lot of falling :-) but managed to get down a few times without. Today went a lot better, almost didn't fall anymore on the beginner slope. Toe side feels easy but riding on the heel edge is still challenging. I tend to skid and break a lot and my body wants to go inverted down instead. Again, many thanks for making these vids, cheers
Very cool.
Thanks!
Awesome video. Going to watch this again before I take my wife out to learn in the next few weeks here.
Good luck to her, hope it goes well!
I wish my first snowboard lesson had looked like this ❤️
I wish every slope had someone like you Malcom working there lol currently on day 2 in Slovakia , surrounded by skiers and non English speakers , feel massively out of my depth but these videos are helping it all to make sense. Thanks Dude , from a fellow Brit 🤓
Just started riding and found your videos extremely helpful! I love the commentary at the end where you pick up on things you could do to improve and pick out some mistakes beginners wouldn’t understand. Great video!
Thanks Danny 🙌
This video is the best video I’ve seen amazing so easy so clear keep it up you rock!!!!
Thanks, I appreciate it, back next winter with more vids!
i love your vidios it was so helpful
I really like how genuine you are and I can't emphasize enough how much you've helped me (and thousands of others, I am sure). I am so glad you have the subs and views you so much deserve. Keep on growing, bro!
Thanks Filip, appreciate it 🙌
I’m gonna try snowboarding for the first time next week! Looking forward to it
Good luck!!
I went snowboarding for the first time in 7 years yesterday, thanks to your video I was able to jump in immediately, thanks so much!
That's amazing 🙌🙌
Great video, gonna use this for learning my kid. Thx!!!
Hope it helps!
You’re an incredible teacher!
Thanks 👍
Amazing video, cant wait to practice these tips soon😁
🙌
I watched this video before buying my board, now I’m watching this before teaching my little sister to board too! Thanks for making it so clear and in depth as if it were real ski school
Teaching my daughter to board and I will definitely use these tips to get her toe side down. THANK YOU!
The best snowboarding tuto ever :) great work Malcolm thank you so much ^^
Thanks you 🙏🙏🙏
Given the space you have had with both the students also helps. I did my basic and intermediate training at Chillfactore in Manchester.... very limited slope length plus the slope was too steep for a beginner.
I always check out your vids because they explain the fundamentals of each skill needed to improve your riding. Keep up the good work, your a good tutor.
Thanks, yeah this was filmed last season when none of the lifts (apart from the magic carpet) were running. That explains the quiet slopes and also why at the end we hiked up a pretty poorly pisted slope! Looking forward to things hopefully going back to normal this year!
