That everything about snowboard stance page is a godsend. I discovered that page a year or two ago, and it's definitely amazing how much setting up your bindings correctly can improve your riding experience. That, and it's nice to see a page that recommends both stance angles for various styles of riding and widths based on your size.

Hi all,
during my research how to perform different tricks; I stumbled up this pdf http://www.methodmag.com/fileadmin/m...gy_english.pdf
The reason why I putted it here is because:
-it contains a small intro about the history of snowboarding (and the vete with skieers
-basic terms (I finally know what a cab is!)
-and (most important thing!) explanation from the most basic snowboard tricks (p.e. ollie,FS180,360), to a little more advanced tricks like layback slash in a halfpipe, or a FS boardslide.

For some of you it is probably too easy, but I think it fits right into this basic-how-tos-thread

Ive been riding for awhile but never got heavy with all the knowledge behind what we do. Always had my board tuned up for me and all that stuff.

Thanks for all the links above. With my new gear and new knowledge, 08/09 season is going to be one for the books.
