Open Vs Closed Turns for Speed Control

Whats the difference between open and closed snowboarding turns? Well the answer is pretty simple, hence the reason this is only a 3 minute video. I know its summer, but I thought I'd drop this anyway more just to say hello to everyone, hope you're all good!

    Thanks mate, this is helpful, do you have any vids on how to translate this and some of your other basics videos to young kids? Getting my 8 year old onto his toes and stacked over his toe edge is a hard thing to convey. Ski pole trick is a bit much to stick to, point and look like a cross-hair isn't the best technique but he gets that the most but still pushing into the snow on the balls of his feet instead of getting the knees over the edge 😢❤

    I’m so excited to hear that you’re coming to Japan!! And I’m so happy to see that you will be staying in Aizu - not boring Hokkaido. I’ve been to many different areas in Japan and snow in Aizu and Hokkaido is exactly the same. Which made me super angry when we went to Hokkaido, because Hokkaido is so much more expensive than staying on Honshu. So, I find it really cool that you’re appreciating a less well known spot of Japan. Where you can also experience the true Japan and not a tourist-friendly version of it.

    Online course sounds amazing! I already went from being scared of red slope to enjoying a (easyish, single) black diamond last winter, just from listening and learning from your youtube videos, so I'm definitely checking that course out! What I would like to learn first is just basics on how to be safe and handle the board so I can enjoy the ride, then little more advanced stuff like small jumps and fast turns, e.g. riding in a wooded area where there isn't so much freedom to carve but you have to follow a path and dodge trees so handling speed and bumps is hard. And of course when the basic and advanced board handling is good, then maybe some tricks. I'm not too much into doing tricks in rails or jumps, I just enjoy riding but I would like to do some little tricks and "spice up" my riding with some of the stuff you've already shown in your videos, but I'm sure there's plenty more. As for technical side of the course it's nice to hear you are giving the explanation of why, this is something I really want to learn before I have my boots strapped in. But when I'm on the slope, would you consider having easy video tutorials that anyone could watch and try to repeat without too much of a trouble, unless this is exactly what you meant when you talked about it. 😊 Thank you for helping us newbies out! Good luck and have fun on your journey to Japan!

  • @MarkDonegal
    @MarkDonegal 14 дней назад

    Hi Malcolm, I love the idea for the course. As you asked for suggestions here are my 2 cents. I actually pay for the Snowboard Addiction course and as “imitation is the greatest form of flattery” one thing it does well is to split the course into individual courses of beginner, intermediate and advanced. It helps a learner make sure they have the fundamentals down on each course before moving onto a more advanced course. One thing is doesn't do as well is structure the courses analytically. Gaps in knowledge can be as frustrating as struggling to learn a new skill. You have a great analytical approach to teaching which is appreciated and the best way of learning for most people (I’m a lecturer), so on that basis alone I’m 100% in on the course! See you in January! 🏂

    Hey Malcolm ! Awesome to hear you will be coming to Japan. It's definitely the best pow experience you can hope for! This past season was kinda sketchy with lots of warm waves that ruined many a pow days but I hope next winter smiles on us all ! Aizu is hardly the best tho... if you want the best conditions you should be going to somewhere in Hokkaido. I make the trip up there 3 times a season and it doesn't get any better than that in terms of conditions. Have not been to Aizu myself but I ride in the area too. so I can assure you it will be solid. Looking forward to hearing your take on JP riding. Be warned tho... you'll be hooked and there is no coming back from that lol

    • @malcolmmoore
      @malcolmmoore 14 дней назад

      Yeah I did kind of think I would be going to Hokkaido but for a weeks course travelling from Europe Aizu made sense as you can get there really quickly from Tokyo, and hopefully we'll still get really good snow. The travel there is easier, the cost is alot cheaper, and it looks to be somewhat less Westernized. But yeah, fingers crossed for deep snow!

    • @OhadElbaz66
      @OhadElbaz66 13 дней назад

      @malcolmmoore You are right tho. If you go to Niseko it's well westernized and crowded. But there are other spots in Hokkaido that are less crowded, more local ppl centric, and of course there is a ton of side country action. The main difference being the difference in conditions between Kanto area and Hokkaido. Gotta leave something for your next one ;)

      @@malcolmmoore Hokkaido in winter is Australia central. Hakuba is too, but not to that point. You will literally not see a Japanese face, apart from a guide here and there. Last season was the stuff that nightmares were made of. Of course tour operators (mainly Australian) always get priority, and because of that dynamic and the weak yen, they are pricing the locals out of their own area. There will be an Australian bus driver, Australian guesthouse/ hotel staff, Australian lifties, Australian cafeteria staff. At least folks who come independently contribute directly to the local economy without the middle men of the tour company. And these days with the super weak yen, it is very much appreciated. I understand it's just business, though. The locals will go and ride elsewhere. And I do hope you'll have a blast in Japan. I'm assuming you're doing Hokkaido? Anything in Honshu as well? Enjoy!

    You will love that Japan trip mate! Did a trip through mint last winter and it was an amazing experience.
