It’s my job to explain stuff to people and to be rhetorically sound while doing it, you sir are remarkable and second to none in your ability to pierce through the details of the sport you chose, dissect it and get it across. This is something I’ve been missing in many people you instructed me with regards to snowboarding. This is not a tutorial, this is real education! Thank you!

It's fantastic how you create an entire video in one smooth recording, with no cuts and edits. Great, thank you!

warp-speed skier at 0:21 seems to have just robbed a bank!

When I was a beginner, the first real aha moment was to ALWAYS move weight (center of gravity) to my front leg before making a turn.The front leg will then start acting as a pivot, making the rest of the board (back part) rotate almost effortlessly around it. After the turn, weight back to center on both feet.
So lean forward before the left or right turn.

As a veteran snowboard Instructor of over 15 years. This is the best explanation of torsional twist I have seen online. This is my favorite subject to teach. Homework for you Malcom.  Try a butter press and add twist to the raised foot. You will be ale to spin endlessly.   Cheers! Well done.

Man! I'm 48 yrs young and after 42 yrs on skis I jumped onto a snowboard! It was my 3rd attempt, I must admit - first one was 30 yrs ago when I was 18... That time I was riding, well, learning snowboard in ski shoes!!! Can you belive?! Even more, that time you could ride a snowboard but standing right to the nose, both your feet together pointing nose! Like a one wide regular ski!!!
Anyway, my 2nd attempt was like 13 yrs ago. Toghether with friend of mine we took snowboards for learning and couldn't even stand straigh with 3 or 4 hours!!! And when I was 18 within one hour I was like a bit riding down...
So last Saturday, my older daughter (14) put strong on a table (that ski tweekend was connected with her birthday day) she wants to try snowboard (shes quite good skier). And I responded - great, I'm in too. I wanted to spent more time together and I didn't want anything major she can I can't...
Belive me or not, both of us watched literally 2 videos on YT, such an 101 and the next day at 7pm we hopped on the snowboards. By the 8pm we were riding down the green horn slope.
That was end of the day in the resort, so next day, after another 3-4 hours of practicing that slope, we hit the red piste... And we nailed it. I didn't fall once. Rest of Sunday I spent on that slope...

Sorry for the long introduction to my words, but I must say you are talking! I'm like installing your words into my brain... Like they fit to special slots...
Can't wait till next moment I'm on the deck...
Thx bro!!!

Hi Malcolm, after boarding for 20 years I needed some improvement to get rid of some bad habits. I just spent 4 days in Japan using this technique of da-dum, da-dum and it was a game changer. I tackled everything with more capability and confidence. I could ride all mountain before but this really made me on edge with control for more of the ride. Thanks Malcolm, love the videos

you're vids are great. I am a snowboard instructor and as each season starts I watch a ton of your vids solely because you have so many ways to explain the same techniques and movements. It's really helpful because everyone understands things differently. It gives me an arsenal to work with. For example, one person will totally get the knee steering concept and another makes more sense out of the lever analogy.

First season of snowboarding for me I’ve been watching your tutorials since then and went from just doing heel to heel turns to now toe turning but still trying to minimize skidding or just not skidding at all.  I love your vids and tutorials!!!

The best snowboard lesson ever, REVAMPED!!! Thank you so much for everything Malcom. You have given me and so many others a hobby for life. You are a legend!

Been snowboarding over 25 years. Plateaued at an ok, but lower then expected level. If only your channel was around back then. Good foundations are such a difference maker.

Add: learning good foundations in a YOUNG body!

@1:15 Man was zooming lol.

A really easy way to learn this is to ride a ripstick, because to make the ripstick turn, you to introduce some torsional twist, and when the turn is completed, you align your foots again (otherwise you will make a full circle). I used to do a lot of ripstick riding, and I naturally ride my snowboard with knee steering because of that. I hope this can help some people pratice during the off-season 🙂

i wish i had someone to teach me this when i started learning to snowboard.

I flew 6 of my siblings up to Utah a couple days ago and have been using techniques you taught in your past videos to teach them.

They’re all doing short heel/toe turns now and it’s just day 4. Did their first blue run and two did their first black diamond yesterday!!

The only snowboarding channel I watch thank you for all that you do

The most useful video from Malcom among all his videos.

I've been watching your videos for years since I started snowboarding and I always go back to them each season. You explain in such thorough detail making it easy to understand how to execute the movements. I'm excited to put this into practice the next time I hit the mountains. Thanks Malcom!

I've been snowboarding a few years now, taken me a while to get to this point but trying to improve my edge control so I can start thinking about early turns. I just can't wrap my head around how you don't face plant when you throw yourself onto the toe edge early :D

Lever analogy is the one that makes the most sense to me but they're all great.  Thank you so much.
