Tips For Snowboarding With Kids

Kids boards usually range from 90cm to 146cm in length. Our board is 95cm making it easy to learn on. The smaller the board the easier it is to control.

Make sure children are taught on appropriate terrain. Always start on easy terrain where they will build confidence and technique. A small hill is perfect.

Before the take their first run you need to find which foot should be forward. A snowboard stance is either “regular” (which is left foot forward) or “goofy” (right foot forward). To decide, have your child run and slide on the snow and watch his or her foot position. Or have your young snowboarder stand with both feet together (on a step or side walk). Tell them to start walking and note which foot they step with first. Don’t tell them the names of the stances until you determine their lead foot.

Be Safe!  Make sure your child always wears a helmet, no matter how basic the hill or slope start them as you mean to go on. Skiweb suggest a helmet is worm at all times.

Be Warm! Good gloves and frequent stops will make the day better

Be Happy!  Make it fun! Enjoy teaching your child it’s a life time skill they will appreciate for ever
