Snowboarding Techniques

Snowboarding techniques involve using your body and board effectively to control speed, direction, and stability. Key skills include maintaining a balanced stance with knees slightly bent, shifting weight smoothly to turn or stop, and using your arms for balance. Beginners often start with basic gliding and stopping, then progress to making controlled turns by leaning into edges of the board. Advanced techniques include carving clean arcs, jumping, and riding switch (backwards). Proper technique relies on subtle weight shifts, edge control, and body positioning to navigate varied terrain safely and smoothly.
