Looks like janetcampr replied to post #1 and stripped the quote metadata. I'll fix that.

Hi hi! I'm Kricket, 35yo, originally from Mississippi but transplanted to Minnesota last year! I've always wanted to snowboard but never had the time or money to travel anywhere that I could learn. Now that I'm living where it snows properly, IT IS FINALLY TIME! 😁 I inherited a Salomon board from a neighbor, it already has bindings but I've gotta get some boots and gear. Any help/tips/info on riding for a beginner and where to get good gear for cheap (single mom, limited income) would be awesome!! 💙

Tips for a beginner? Don't get disheartened, the first 5-15 days are usually pretty unpleasant. Don't let others push you too far out of your comfort zone at first - confidence is a huge part of riding well, build it gradually. On that note get more weight on your front foot. No more.

Welcome to snowboarding. It's brilliant.

Hi
a new member from Switzerland ^^

36yo, and I started snowboarding 2 years ago! Yes it was quite hard at the beginning (especially when you're taking a course with... only kids/teenagers ;s), but now I know it's what I want
I'm an advanced beginner (or a beginner intermediate haha).

Hi everyone my name is arad ralami I'm a huge fan of snowboarding but I'm a beginner, recently I've started searching for snowboarding tips on youtube to learn some techniques hope one day I will become professional!

 

[FridgeGirl]

Hey y’all, I’m from the Netherlands and snowboarding in our local fridges (which are possibly about to close for a whole month). Me and my friend started around 3 months ago with occasional riding before but we got the bug now and can’t stop. Had our first freestyle lesson yesterday and it was a lotta fun. Can’t wait to actually land 180s nicely and for the slopes to open up again in nearby countries ✌
And I’m 28, my job is not related to any sports but hopefully soon I can arrange being more free in my travels (goodbye Netherlands for a month or so haha)

 

[Powhio]

Love from Ohio in the US! I'm 30m and been snowboarding 2 years. Big plans to step it up this year with multiple trips planned. Chase the pow when you can!

Hi, I have been tasked with installing a beginner to easy intermediate Terrain park, could you all link me to some good feature building threads? Specifically box and rail construction and top favorite, must have beginner features.
