Supposing from all the comments I'll make an off-topic now, but does anybody know the title of the song at the beginning? Looks like a fun song to ride to :)

Also great vids! I've learned a lot! :)

Hi Doug, love your videos. I was just wondering if forward lean helps or hurts when jibbing? I know it puts you in a more athletic stance, but I had also heard it could make landing flat based on boardslides difficult. Any thoughts?

Hey Doug. This year I got a rather stiff board, thinking I would just ride rather than hit up the park. I decided I'd try flatland tricks before going to the park, but I can't do butters and presses, even with a lot of practice...Is it because of my stiff board? It's a 7 stiffness on a scale of 10.

a lot of people think that your snowboard length has to do with weight and height but it doesnt impact that much im 5'11 and weigh 200 pounds and ride a 154 my friends 6'1 and 160 pounds and rides a 149 i feel it depends more on what you do and where your comfortable
