What does it mean 'transfer from the toe edge to a flat base' ? D:

[boardworld]

@CalebJz13 You need to release the toe edge, by increasing pressure to your front foot and rotating/pointing your upper body downhill. This will allow your snowboard to release the toe edge and the board will go to a flat base and point downhill.

VERY well done! I've watched dozens of vids, and this series is BY FAR the BEST! THANKS!

[shufflegirl13]

thanks this really helped

[isbemorph]

finally i found a video without jumping.. backside to frontside riding, thats what i've failed to learn today

[NikolaVa87]

Sorry but rotating your upper part of a body isn't correct, all you do should be done with your legs. Bad lesson.

this is the best video for beginners, it helped me a lot, thanks!!

@Eliheartsmilo: What youre probably doing as your turn starts is panicking at the speed and leaning back and away from the hill causing your board to speed up and lose steering. Start your turn with your weight on the front foot. As that begins to take you straight down the hill, point with your front arm where you want to go (your lower body will follow!) and shift your weight back evenly over both feet, this will turn your board. Now bend your knees and dig in your toe edge to stop the board!
