Do you guys see any bad habits forming? It's short I know but he is learning front boards and 180's ( he comes up short sometimes) There is other stuff in there too...

Fixed the link for you.

Chase having fun

Tough little dude you got there. I don't know about bad habbits but he is for sure killing it for his age.

Thanks for the fix. I wonder why we can't embed vimeo like we can with you tube?

Smokehaus · 02-23-2011, 09:00 PM

Pretty sure Snowolf said he was gonna look into it or something about we may or may not of been coded to embed vimeo.

But yeah, no vimeo yet.

EDIT: I lied it was Killclimbz who said it in this thread.

Hes killin it! Man hes good. think he could give me some pointers?

Do you let him hit bigger size jumps? i really only see him focusing on rails.

No joke... rail junkies lose teeth man.. put that baby on the BootaZ!

but seriously he's ripping it up... the way he contorts his body is pretty regular for most park riders just to stay in the habit of resetting between hits in their run... I literally have that same spazzy movement where I'm always adjusting... especially on ice..

siickk, if you haven't already, get him the snowboard addiction set...that would give some good ideas on how to progress with proper form and such

i also highly highly suggest the Snowboard Addiction DVD series. Theyre great videos.

Thanks you guys for all the advice. Sorry the video doesn't show much of what I asked about getting help for.I put that together for him to show friends.Those teaching video look like the way to go!

I will post up some better clips of front boards and 180's later tonight.
