  • No, don't start small! You learn faster if you hit the biggest hill first!

  • be prepared to fall A LOT. You'll probably fall when getting off the lift too. And really start small. Instead of getting speed, just focus on keeping your board under control. The first thing you should learn is how to break using your heel edge.

    I just started two days ago, and I highly recommend you start this way. I didn't know what I was doing so I went through a lot of hard, unnecessary falls before I figured out that I should start by learning to brake.

  • I'm just going to sum it all up for you all! When people say to sart big and its the highest rated comment it might mean something. And also if you have been skateboarding or skiing than it might be a little easier to get used to than people who have never done anything like that before(like me lol)!! But where ever you start, make sure you keep control of your board and then you can earn all this cool stuff!! thx!! :))
