My first time snowboarding question?

Question

should i get my board waxed about 11 hours before i go to the mountains? it is my first time?

will i go to fast?

Answer 1

i've been snowboarding for about 3 years now, and i would say don't wax it till your 5th time or so, at first its hard to control it(especially when its wax it gives you a lot of speed) so no, i wouldnt wax it, give it some time and when you feel confident about turning and keeping your balance you can try waxing it

Good luck ;) and remember dont think you won't fall

Answer 2

dont wax it if it is your first time. you might go too fast

Answer 3

well if the board is new, you shouldnt need to wax it b/c from the factory it should come with a coat of wax already. after a few times to the mountain then you should consider waxing

Answer 4

i wax my board in the parking lott or the night before it doesn't matter when you do it. it doesn't make a huge difference in going faster it just makes the ride smoother.

Answer 5

if its your first time i would wax not alot but a little cause if you go to fast you will wipe out!! so maybe a little it just makes the board ride smoother
