The feeling when you start carving is indeed so great, you feel like you're perfectly in control of your edges and your movements become smooth and relaxed. That also makes more experienced riders last way longer without tiring through the day, because you waste so much less energy on bad posture. Getting rid of beginner bad habits was quite a challenge though.

The only thing I would add is having flex in the knees and lowering center of gravity. Most people try riding with their legs nearly straight. Keeping knees bent and relaxed absorbs bumps and lows the rider to carry more speed.

Early turn initiation. You see him doing it on every turn. He transitions to the next edge while still facing uphill and same while facing downhill. An instructor pointed it out to me and my carving improved immediately. His board is never flat down the fall line other than when he’s showing us how not to ride. Thanks for the awesome video!!!
@illegalskillsexception9826 2 жыл бұрын
I think the most beginner mistake is the back foot ruddering and riding with open shoulder. It is easy to get used to riding with stacked shoulders but it takes a while to get used to the front foot/knee steering. I think one should practice that with normal turns on mellow slopes. You can watch 100 videos but its all about the time required for your body to say "Aha, this feels right and natural". You don't need to watch technical videos on how to carve, you just happen to pick it up with time naturally. That's the beauty of this sport.

Agree with it all….my only response is for a more experienced boarder yes these things help you grow. But for a newbie or moderate novice that isn’t comfortable with the speed these generate it’s not something they feel comfortable with. That’s where the open shoulder/rear rudder comes into play. They are trying to control the speed so they are over correcting to feel safe. Does that make sense?
@AMac815 2 жыл бұрын
Foot ruddering is because most people start out with the stance that "feels" right and put their dominant foot in the back when really the dominant foot should be the drive foot up front. The upside is that these riders can learn switch faster because that puts their dominant foot back up front. I also think a reason hybrid camber profiles have gained popularity, especially rocker between the inserts, is because many of these reward a more back foot steering style. No judgment, you can start with any stance and become proficient, but it's always struck me that so many people put their dominant foot in the backseat when learning.

@@AMac815 that is so funny you say that because I'm right-dominant-everything, goofy felt more natural to me and I seem to have skipped the ruddering stage entirely. I may have even had the opposite problem. When I was struggling to link my turns, I took a private lesson and my instructor said "don't be afraid to use your back foot" and it was like something finally clicked that hadn't for two seasons, especially with going heels to toes. Sometimes still have to remind myself to pressure the rear more. And switch terrifies me, lol. Also, since having my own board I've decided I don't like rocker between the inserts, it just feels less controllable.

I just rode all the time and eventually taught myself. Getting back into it now and thinking about what am I actually doing and how can i make it better. Also id like to help others learn. My advice is more weight on your front foot and definitely bend your knees. Also practice riding switch right away and you will be a better rider in the long run. Also going across the entire run on one edge then across to the other side on the opposite edge allows you to get comfortable and feel each edge while practicing balance !

Try keeping ur knees bent throughout the turn, extend up out the turn. If you’re picking up too much speed try over turning (if that makes sense) do larger sweeping turns to dump some speed, almost like you’re turning up the hill for a second. It’ll come tho keep pressing.

This tutorial is great and very informative for those learning the body position to carve and want to remain open and dynamic to do other things. For those looking for aggressive heelside carves and so on, look to surfers and how their shoulders, hips, and knees rotate during heelside turns. Without setting your bindings to all forward you can still achieve aggressive heelside carves with simple a rotation of your rear knee to face more towards the front and slight opening of the shoulders throught turn iniation. This goes against the purpose of this video, but for Experienced riders and so on, valuable information to build up to the heel side euros.

What I realized when I finally got carving down was my body's fear of two things that actually literally make carving easier and possible - speed and leaning into the carve. I was fearing just eating it if I leaned into it. But that literally made it easier to catch the carve. Also speed. The slower you are the harder it is to catch your balance when carving. The ice also throws your board off more and your board doesnt cut through the snow as smoothly when you are slow. Think of it much like trying to bike on two wheels slowly. You only start picking up a balance when you pick up speed.

True, as well as forward stance angles (to whatever degree). With the exception of Knapton, none of the current nor historical best turners & carvers are riding a parallel, closed, duck posture. Whether they’re mountain freestylers/freeriders who are known for their turning & edging, or dedicated carvers, racers, slalom riders, or people winning the established banked slaloms like at Baker, riding styles from brands like Korua, or advanced carving like what’s more common in Japan, Europe or Russia, it’s all done with forward, open, directional stance and posture, for good reason. That said, these videos aren’t meant to teach expert carvers, or teach people to be expert carvers - they are meant to help beginners who haven’t developed basic fundamentals to get beyond where they are at, which is of course a valuable thing to teach. But, it’s important to discern between these two majorly different things, and to not confuse this video for “true” or expert/aggressive proper carving, which means finished turns, higher speed, more g-force, more board angulation, etc.. these tutorials are just about helping people to learn basic turns and to be on each edge while riding along the sidecut, rather than skidding and washing.

About the backward roatering... i find i do that to throw off speed because if i just pure carve down a steep then i can pick up too much speed too quickly. I guess let me rephrase, I think the roatering with the book foot helps on a steep you've never gone down before because you're not sure how fast you can take it or if the snow is too choppy and will throw you up in the air if you just straight carve it. Like, if possible, could you do some of these videos on steeper and more difficult terrain? It looks easy when you go down these mellow greens or whatever they are but I think people who watch/subscribe to your channel are probably going down more difficult stuff...

I turn around and I see the nice line I leave behind on heelside but when I look at my toeside I see the marks I leave from ruddering. I know I have to get on my edge more and all these tips are amazing cause they've helped on my heel side carves but I just can't seem to get toeside down. It will take more time and I know that but I'll keep having fun while I'm out there

Everyone has a side that is the weaker side. I like that he called it stomping a bug. I spread my toes as I push down on my lead foot to initiate the turn like you are pushing down on the gas pedal. Then it is a very small movement but as I am riding that edge my weight shifts very slightly to my back foot and I press my back toe down. When you are carving just like he said shoulders stacked and bending at the knees and ankles. If you are still having trouble adjust your highback forward this forces your ankles to flex and knees to bend. Keep practicing!!!

Sorry to correct you on your bug stomping theory, but in fact as in almost every other sport everything starts with your eyes. You spot where you want to go, your head tilts initiating the tilt of your shoulders and arms and from there on down to your knees. You can actually see it perfectly on your bug stomping section. This engagement of the shoulders and the resulting weight shift is what actually starts the turn and this may be the most important point to understand. As for the rest, good summary, always be as active in your knees as possible. Cheers

My right knee blew out 2 winters ago on my last run of the night and it hasn't been the same since. I want to go so bad but I don't know if I can... Snowboarding is just constant stress on your knees and quads. I miss it.

Great video, but I don’t really get the front knee action. The door and big thing doesn’t really explain to me what physical action the front leg is doing. Is it like trying to rotate your foot/ankle/knee left and then right? Or something else?

great video. ill have to see if im carving right, i think i am bc my friend said i did good, im just nervous with the speed i guess i just need confidence that im not going to go flying into the trees, trails are narrow in new york and vermont. do you have any tips for boots? bc i bought step on burton boots ions and my front foot is fine but my back foot is tight and i took the insole out already but its crushing the top of my foot, its not enough room i think, its better that i took the insole out but its still killing me so riding down the trails with pain kills my endurance.

Helpful tips as always, thank you! I was also wondering, do you have any tips for navigating icy slopes? I'm on the east coast, and ice is a major problem a lot of the time. I've gotten pretty good at boarding on good snow conditions, but as soon as there's icy patches, I go from advanced to noob status in one second, lol. As soon as I try to turn/carve on ice, I just immediately slide out and fall hard on my ass, but of course turning/carving is necessary for controlling speed. It's especially important to control speed on steep slopes of course, and the steeper slopes are also the ones that tend to ice over the most. I do see other people riding down ice with no problem, yet I can't stay upright on it for more than a second. If you have any tips for riding on icy surfaces, is that something you'd be able to do a video on at some point? I'm sure you don't have that problem much out west!
@JohnathanBuckhouse Жыл бұрын
Being on the east is hard because the whole run can be ice lol in Colorado we get icy spots and you can navigate around them by riding where everyone is pushing the snow. The only true way to combat really icy conditions is sharper edges and magna traction which is made by GNU on there snowboards. I love that you have learned so much from the videos. Not sure your age but if you are over 18 we have an all inclusive snowboarding camp in June at Timberline ski resort in Oregon. Check it out at Buckhouseindy.com

Hey Johnathan, this is just my 2nd season snowboarding, last season I just did like 10 days and yesterday was my 2nd day of this season and it was the first time that I actually felt I did the right thing 😂 I was Carving!!! Felt so great man, it actually feels like you ARE snowboarding, sliding turns feels like you're just trying to not fall😂

What are the best mount angles for carving?
@tupadre1407 2 жыл бұрын
I dont really agree with that #4, if you open up your body a little more and dont have your shoulders parallel with your board you will be able to get much deeper and be more balanced! I dont mean that you should stand with your chest facing completely down slope but a little torso twist wont hurt but rather help!
@uyghhgbvhlgbkg 2 жыл бұрын
True you definitely do not want your shoulders parallel to your board when carving. By standing a bit more open you are able to bend your upper body away from the ground, allowing the angle between your board and slope be larger resulting in more extreme (and stable) carves.

I discovered this last year after 15 years of thinking everything was supposed to be locked parallel. I can't express how much better heel sides feel, wish someone would have told me 10 years ago!

So many confliction tips from snowboarding KZfaq guys, Malcome Moore recently uploaded a video about having a more open stance and a bit more pressure on the back foot to improve carving, and this dude says the opposite. Also, if you have an open stance with weight on the back foot, surely that would make ruddering the tail of the board harder? Tommie B says to NOT knee steer while carving... Who do I believe?! Lol - I go and try them all out anyway on the hill but I just never know what is 'proper'.

I think most of the KZfaqrs have no psia or aasi certs or any formal training, hence all the conflicting info on KZfaq.

I kinda disagree with the shoulder wide open because if your binding is double positive you have to keep both your shoulders forward for better pencil line heel sides and backsides on Euro carving😅
@julianfranko5191 9 ай бұрын
When I carve a wide backside turn, I am always afraid of not seeing who is coming down the slope behind me, with the risk of crahing with someone. So I tend to watch back, and automaticaly turn my shoulders, which interrupts my carving. How can you control what's happening on your backside, whithout loosing your flow? Especially when you got quite a speed?
