Snowboard

Novices, introduction to snowboarding and proper use of the boards

Getting used to the snowboard equipment
Learning the basic requirements - getting used to the board - getting used to the position - maintaining balance

Sliding and Schuss exercises
Getting used to sliding – dynamic balance training

Sliding
Smooth movement of the board with safe sliding - forward and backward with continuous weight transfer (zigzag slide)

PRACTICE-
AREA

Frontside and Backside gliding as well as drift turns both ways

Drift turn with weight shift
Mastering the drift turn with weight shift in medium steep terrain

Drift turn upright
Rhythmic continuous drift turns in steep terrain

EASY

Carving long & short radius

Stringing together carveturns by exploiting the steering forces & the snowboard's waist Driving behavior Single carveturn One and a half carveturn Increasing the angle of incidence Consolidate

Rhythm, frequency & speed control Controlling the board in short, dynamically cut radii while oscillating under the body through pressure changes Edging exercises

MODERATE

Park and pipe as well as terrain are no Greek to you, perfecting the turns on the slope

High unload/deep unload

Boardslide on boxes, rails & tubes

Jumps - Rotations

Bumps - balancing technique
Riding through mogul pistes by learning the balancing technique (bending, stretching, turning) and situational turns adapted to the terrain.

Freeriding – Technique Learning safe riding on ungroomed slopes in back-country
