Introduction

My first foray into snowboarding was almost 20 years ago. I went up with no idea how to do it. With the eventual help of a passer by, I learned how to get down the mountain without killing myself or other people! I recently taught my oldest child to snowboard. We had some ups and downs, but the kid picked it up pretty quick and now goes just about anywhere I go. Through the process I realized there are a few key points, that if you know going into it, give you a major head start. This blog contains those key issues, as I see them, and hopefully will elicit more insights form others.
