This course is designed for snowboard instructors refining their riding skills and working on carving and groomed terrain. During this course you will experience and discover techniques used to improve your understanding of both riding and teaching students to carve. Be prepared to learn and use terminology that will reinforce safe riding and coaching your students to switch edges with out pivot (or waiting for the board to face downhill). You will review movement analysis techniques used to determine when students are prepared move into the carving realm. Experiment with fun riding tasks that can be used to teach students to “play” to develop the necessary skills and gain experience before heading to more difficult terrain. Wearing a helmet is not required, but is encouraged at this course.
