Tips for Snowboarding

1. Don't fall. It will hurt!

2. Don't lean to far forward or backwards or you will faceplant

3. Stay on an edge, if you are flat you will catch an edge and fall painfully on your butt or face depending on which edge you catch.

4. When catching your fall make a fist and try not to angle your wrist. If the wrist is angled injuries like a sprained or broken wrists can occur. If your hand is not balled into a fist a finger or fingers could be damaged.

5. Wear padding. I recommend knee pads and wrist guards for beginners.

6. Dress in clothes that are waterproof and will keep you warm.

7. Bend your knees but do not lock them.
