Snowboarding with no snow

Question

during the winter it snows a couple of times but its not very good for snowboarding. ive made pretty decent ramps in my back yard and got a little bit of air and i can do a indy grab and rotate 180. im also good at carving down the hill. i think i might be able to get really good at snowboarding but how do i do that with no snow?

also i skateboard and longboard if that helps with snowboarding at all.

Answer 1

That's wicked! Sand might work or fake snow.

Answer 2

why don't u go to a ski Lodge?

Answer 3

yeah i dont skateboard or longboard but i snowboard a bit and sometimes when all the snow is melted and the hills are just mud we go snowboarding or mudboarding. Its a lil bit harder but it works.

Answer 4

You really can't snowboard without snow, but the skateboard will give you the basics for doing the flying tricks.  One thing you can do is get a really old snowboard and find a big flight of stairs outside or in and go down them with your board.  It sounds stupid and nuts, but it gives you the basic for going downhill cuz the board is long enough to slide over the steps without getting hung up.  Also, I'm not sure the state you live in but there are a lot of places to go that make snow.  They are big resorts that when it's cold enough make snow....usually from Nov.-March and they have hills and trick parks.  Good Luck!
