Learning to snowboard is all about progression, and not all about natural skills, although having some skills will help…just saying. If you go into the sport not realizing that time, practice, and patience will make you a better snowboarder then you may just find yourself frustrated, or even getting hurt.
As you start learning new skills and progressing in the process of becoming a better snowboarder, be sure to stop and have fun. Soak in your surroundings, realize the natural beauty of the mountain, the snow, and the trees, and just enjoy that you are experiencing God’s creation, even if you fall a time or two you are learning and progressing with each and every fall. Soak it up, learn from it and most of all enjoy.
