Snowboard average?

Question

on average, by a persons third or fourth time going snowboarding how good should they be? would i be consider a quick learner if i can grind and jump and turn easily by my 3rd time going?

thanks for the answers

Answer 1

sounds like you got some good lessons. i would say you are a quick learner. now you gotta turn your newfound ablility into sick tricks off the jumps. =P

Answer 2

If you just go over a jump and get barely any air, then you can't jump properly(thats what i did when i was learning). When you jump you want to increaseyoure peed every time and soon you will have huge air!

Answer 3

woohoo...very nice very nice. yes you are a fast learner, keep it up you could get mad good haha.

Answer 4

Depending on how your other skills are - turning & stopping - you either are a fast learner or have no fear/concern for safety.

Good on you for doing those things already but without the basics you're not good and a danger to yourself and others.

Answer 5

Im a snowboard instructor, the first time someone snowboards its usually just a lot of side slipping and falling, the second time out is side slipping, stopping, riding with a little more control and so on. If by your third time out your already in the park hitting jumps and rails with confidence then yes your a pretty fast learner.
