Self-Taught Riding vs Pro Training
After 16 years of training all ages and levels I know there is a need for an online pro snowboarding series. Plenty of people, including myself, started out self-taught, learned from friends, or watched tips online. Self-taught riders do learn how to get down the mountain and can develop a cool style. However, trial-and-error riding doesn’t lead to balanced skills. Often, it reinforces bad habits and injuries that take a toll on your body and prolongs progression. I’ve seen people go for years avoiding certain techniques out of fear—ever hear of a heelside hero? The most effective way to become a confident, skilled, rider is to learn professionally.With Flowing Freeride you access the same training my clients at resorts pay top dollar to learn. That makes this series a great companion to professional lessons. But if you can’t afford lessons, it allows you access to professional training at a fraction of the cost. This means you can avoid the pitfalls and excessive injuries that occur with self taught riding.Snowboarding as a sport is maturing, even as snowboarders continue to create and push the envelope, there are core principals that have been developed. Learning to Ride-Right helps you balance skills, reduces anxiety, and speeds up your mastery time of each new skill or trick.
