Thanks for watching! This was shot at Park City Mountain Resort with a Kodak Zi8 and edited on iMovie. From what I hear, lessons at Big Bear and Mammoth are great, too. Just take the lessons, though. It's amazing how the littlest moves make a HUGE impact on where you go on the mountain!

Have fun!

I started boarding at age 33. 8 years later, I'm still lovin' it! I'm even doing jumps, ollies, 180's, boardslides, etc.

I'm 32 and just started boarding. After two times of trying on my own, I decided to get a lesson the third time. Worth the money!! It made it so much more fun for me. I can't sleep at night cuz I keep going through C-turns in my head!!! It sure is fun!! I am fascinated by it.

Nice! I'm 41 too n' have made a few trips over the years but it finally "clicked" for me last season.  And i'm pretty addicted. Think you said you surf n' do something else, so now you got more to add to your arsenal. Rip it up!

Nice Job! I am 40 and my son loves skateboarding, and would like to try snowboarding. I would like to join him. What software did you use to edit this video?

Where was this? I'll have to post a video titled "Learning to snowboard at 41." I've been skiing and was an avid skater as a teen. Been spending too much time at catalina diving last several years, though. I'm guessing I'll do a lesson at Big Bear before heading to Mammoth.
