Your favourite feeling in snowboarding? - Snowboarding Forum

As the title says, what is your favorite feeling in snowboarding?

To kick things off, I'll give my two favorite feelings:

1. Riding a long and steep powder field on a bluebird day.

2. Getting hang time off a kicker (that moment when you're holding onto your board and time seems to stop as you feel like you're flying) and stomping the landing (especially on blindside spins).

Right when I get off the lift for the first time of the season.

1. Floating through pow

2. A nice bs 180

exiting through the gates into some sick backcountry that has completely untouched bowls of powder. Hiking somewhere then standing on top of this line and looking down and just thinking about how the next 5 mins might be the best minutes of your entire existence on this earth. Then of course, floating through the deep untouched champagne powder and carving buttery soul turns with light powder flying up over your head.

like when cruisin along, in dry fluff and hit a little drop or something and the dry fluff...just explodes...can't see anything but defuse white...and it takes a moment to come out

Well I don't know what pow feels like...

But the best feeling is stomping a trick clean, especially one that I've never done before and have been working hard to learn.

Not eating shit on a jump

the Best feeling is when you are cruising down a trail listening to the sound of the snow under your board. And everything else sorta fades away its just you your board and the snow. Its just a blissful peaceful feeling.
