Hi guys,

I'm a newbie in snowboard. I played it once and attended an
introduction lesson. This is really an interesting sport! I definitely
will play it again~

In the lesson, I learned zipzap slide, then S-shape slide. However, I
found a big difficulty in S-shape slide. It's really hard to take
balance and look at the front when I slide "facing the hill". I felt
many times and made only one time success.

Proper feeling for the board/the edges comes with time. Took me old guy
at least two weeks to start boarding without falling every 100m. And you
pay with bruises

Although I found it more difficult to ride on the flat base. Needed on
long and slow slopes, especially in beginner areas. And getting the
board to run again, once you have fallen, is difficult

Can anyone here share me the skills or experience?

One more question, where do you guys come from? I am from Hong Kong.

Germany.

Hong Kong? At least I can go by car/train to a mountain

Thanks for your reply.

I do think more practice is needed. I can slide slowly without
falling. But I just can't control myself to go faster, and fall,
haha.
I'm gathering more information for improvement before my next trip.

Yup, I'm from Hong Kong. I played snowboard once in a trip to Canada .
And I plan to play it again in Shenzhen, a city in China near Hong
Kong. I know there is artificial site there~
