The first of the snowboarding tips The next thing on our agenda of snowboarding tips Now you're on top of the mountain and need to get back down. The most basic way of getting down for beginners is what many people like to call the "falling leaf" technique. It's called this because you'll looking like a falling leaf while going down the slope. First, you want to stand up and balance yourself like we mentioned before. Then slowly put one foot forward and you'll begin to slide that way. As you begin to reach one side of the run, bring yourself to a stop like we discussed and slowly put the other foot out. This will make you slide in the other direction to the opposite side of the run. As you can see, you'll be making a zig-zag pattern all the way down the mountain like a falling leaf would. After you can do the falling leaf with both your heel and toe sides, you can start to try facing down the mountain more. Try making your board face straight down and coming to a stop. When you can do this with both sides, you can begin to link these sequences. As you come to a stop while going down on your heel side, put your weight on your rear toe to change to your toe side and vice versa. Keep practicing this and soon you'll be carving your way down the mountain. These simple snowboarding tips will help you carve your way down the slope sooner.
