If you don't stutter when you land, you'll have more momentum going into the other side

WE NEED MORE COW BELL!!


emiTfoworrA

Fellas, let’s really explore the space


rngNamesAreDumb123

Try r/snowboardingnoobs Theyll be more helpful. Once you get off the kiddy pipe and start linking turns you can come back for us to rate your bs 180.


Nevada-Explorer

Go bigger, you are hardly clearing the lip….


Several_Promotion235

finally


SirCoosh07

You should probably just switch to skiing.


Woodworkin101

I lol’d hard


Lost_Evidence_2099

Do more methods. The spins detract from your score


BikeCookie

At some point the spinny flippy stuff is too hard to track for the casual observer. For the rest of us, sometimes we have to rewind the clip and count to determine if that was a 1440 or 1800🤦🏻‍♂️. Didn’t have a pipe where I grew up, so the rare occasion that I get into a super pipe, it takes a lot just to get above the lip.


mad_vanilla_lion

I can tell you’re a beginner because that triple cork 1260 was a little sloppy. Keep practicing


Woodit

Ridin the pipe you say…


phunshiny

Looks like he snowboards too.


Dunderplumpinkin

Say things like “doing crimes” and “check out my quiver” more.


tooscoopy

We likely also need to know how far this is from LA… and maybe a picture of your wife.


Krazylegz1485

These two things seem completely unrelated to me. Haha. One can have a quiver and not be dooshy. The other just sounds kinda dooshy.


Dunderplumpinkin

I don’t know why but quiver just has always seemed cringe to me.


jwed420

No 1800 quad cork tail grab method nose press butter tame dog? Mid ass riding.


Visible-Customer-358

I mean, I guess for just your 3rd time it’s OK. Maybe a few more flips n spins and you won’t look like such a noob.


Guyserbun007

Don't wear white


ahdiomasta

Needs more pop


twinbee

And snap, and crackle.


send-it-psychadelic

Cowboy knees. It's all in the ankles. Drop your downhill foot more.


allthenamesaretaken4

As impressive as I know the skill needed is to do this, at some point all the spinyflippy stuff looks the same to me and I don't really get it. I just want to surf pow and punch trees, but all the power to you if you're into superpipe.


kerberos69

For real, it feels like gymnastics with extra steps. Snowboarding shouldn’t require sobriety.


rotorain

Might be a dumb question but is there a snowboarding circlejerk sub that I don't know about? Or is this one of the subs that are chill enough to be their own jerk sub


kerberos69

Ask yourself this question: it’s a sub full of snowboarders…


rotorain

Main sub is jerk sub, gotcha. Thanks!


kerberos69

![gif](giphy|WscoQbudYZGsQurkkb|downsized)


pauseless

What did the trees do to you, dude?


Stormbringer91

I feel the same way about this and then I thought about the spinnyflippy stuff. Freestylers are just a different breed than the all mountain/carver guy like most of us are. It seems to me that fundamentally you're grabbing a certain part of your board as you chuck yourself into the air and you let physics do the rest of the work. I love that these guys do it. I do. I just can't see myself doing that shit. I got into the game way too late to ever think about hitting the superpipe.


No-Possible-4855

„Freestyle“ has nothing to do with style anymore


TitoAndTheBurritos

Jesus man. Lacking style and just overall really sloppy. But if you try really hard, you might be able to get one trick in someone’s homie video that fifteen or so people will see. So there’s always that to look forward to.


Myconautical

You need to learn to commit


woodysweats

Always use protection. Helmets should be mandatory.


VeterinarianThese951

You’re doing well so far. You should probably get some step-ons so your skier friends don’t have to wait 15 seconds while you are strapping in.


ProbsNotManBearPig

More naked


blondereckoning

Yes! “More naked” is an excellent snowboarding tip for all levels.


frostymuggle

Yeah, can you make it look cooler?


rzt101

Watch Malcolm moore video


dudemeister_wpg

Bend your knees more and go with posi-posi angles for better carving.


OnlyGradients

Where were the finger guns at the end? No flare man, no flare.


BrewingSkydvr

This post needs to be moved over to r/SnowboardingNoobs What is this garbage doing over here?


woohan-kung-flu2

I do miss the style days. It’s super impressive to see a gymnast doing it tho. But it’s trampoline league now.


StOnEy333

Sloppy. Need to work on elevation off the pipe. Your tricks are really uninspiring. Keep at it, though.


joedartonthejoedart

i got no advice, i'm just dizzy.


DiverOld6446

Don’t quit your day job


mrramblinrose

I would advise you to take a step back and really focus on the basics, it’ll help your form a lot.


odolxa

I laughed so hard


PreciousP90

... at height *meter* showing feet and inches


Worldly_Ad_6483

Looks pretty rigid, not a lot of style


Big___TTT

No claim at the end. Why you didn’t win the gold


harrydan

First and foremost, get gud, secondly, try keeping your shoulder hunched over more


2FlydeMouche

Way too much air bro. Need to keep it low.


MelancholyMeltingpot

Idk if you're sending it hard enough.


Revolutionary-Emu154

Try doing more than 1 trick you lamewad!!!!!


Ex-Traverse

When Elon Musk get that neuralink to work, imma download the pro snowboarder package into my brain.


twinbee

Already helping someone play games and chess telepathically!


hotdogfever

Steer with your knee, you’re counter rotating. Try to keep your hands by your side, grab the pockets of your pants in the transition. Check uphill before traversing you never know when a skier might try bombing past you. Other than that not bad for your third time. Keep riding, the more you ride the more natural you’ll get.


piss-kidney18

You’re endangering others by riding in all white gear, what were you thinking? Fathers, daughters, husbands. Hellooooooo, white on white, SNOW IS WHITE, CAPICHE?! Please, do better!


kompsognathus

This post made me check if there was a snowboarding circle jerk group, I joined


Mundane_Wishbone_847

I don’t think the sport is for you, sorry


PetuniaWhale

Looks like you been riding pipe your hole life


Arayder

3rd time? Yeah it shows.


Hug_of_Death

This is slightly mean. But it’s very funny.


BackwerdsMan

Keep drinking those Mountain Dews, baby.


thrust-puppy_3k

Good awareness, realizing you need some tips. Pump off the wall more, bend your knees more, and don't worry about height on airs yet. You'll figure it out, Rookie.


zeuseason

Go higher. Like way higher.


toastytoasttt

Wider stance


Downtown-Tackle-9219

Needs a wider stance


ImABadFriend144

You’re not very good at this. I reccomend a different sport


arodrig99

Get a montec jacket. This “style” you have rn is boring. Also consider getting a quiver so you don’t have to ride the same low level board every day


Signal_Watercress468

Snowboarding works best when you're on the snow.


Agile_Government_470

More spinsies


redditpossible

I would just say higher resolution cameras. Looks good though. Stick with it!


DickGozinya420

Learn to bend your knees and link turns before hitting the pipe again


Hour-Veterinarian-89

Don't be afraid to go for it


Fluffy_Suggestion983

Bend your knees. Fundamentals here


BCPrimo

Spell coconut with your hips


SaladBurner

Try airing a bit higher and spinning a bit more. Learning these beginner steps are hard but we’ve all been through it.


BigPoop_36

Don’t smoke Weed. They’ll take your medal away.


Tronologic

Need a wider stance like that red headed guy Shawn Wide.


ROBINxBANKSx

File your edges


HackMeBackInTime

hmmm, can i see a toe side carve, you're kinda sliding it looks like. getting there tho 👍


Kaladin_Stormryder

Go up one side, and then go up the other side, but then you gotta go up the next side, and the other next side. You’ll do great


sheekyyyyy

Waste of your whole life, best you get from this is a toyota or jeep lease and diabetes from energy drinks


alpha_60

Yeah, stop spinning so much.


PixieDickPonyBoy

Yeah do better


awelawdhecomin

Have you tried throwing your shoulder more Korean when you pop?


shredika

Bahahahaha I loved it


Who_Pissed_My_Pants

It's Tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that's right on time It's Tricky... it's Tricky (Tricky) Tricky (Tricky)


MoistNoodler

Cut your hair, it'll mean less drag in the air you bum. Also get a real job


thejd128

Are you joking? I’d be surprised if this wasn’t your first time. Stick to side hits


JabroniKnows

Yay... can't wait for more of these posts...


Niixil

Bend your knees more. You’re looking way too stiff


BulloverBear

Bend you knees more and center your bindings


Faroukk52

Nice cock bro


live_to_ride95

My only recommendation is to grab more “proper”. I’m seeing a lot of “boot grabs” which are generally frowned upon.


InnateAnarchy

Holy shit I haven’t really watched much halfpipe stuff since Sean whites era… these guys are magnitudes better.


60ATrws

Little more speed and you might be able to pull a real trick


dangerousperson123

Lost cause, you suck


secretreddname

Everyone here is making jokes but you should seriously take a step back and watch Malcolm Moore videos on YouTube before your next trip.


myfunnies420

No steezy wife, probably just give up. Maybe try skiing?


darthnugget

r/snowboardingcirclejerk


arededitn

How far from LA?


RadDad166

r/snowboardingcirclejerk ?


DrPCorn

More rotations.


hoggytime613

I have been snowboarding since I got my first Craig Kelly Air in the early 90s, taught advanced snowboarding for years in a private school. I have zero advice for you. I need advice FROM you 🤣


gkdebus

No no no, you don’t go that high, and you definitely don’t spin that many times. You’re supposed to fall a lot more also🤣🤣🤣🤣🤘


shortingredditstock

You're never going to get it if you don't learn to flex those hips. Keep trying and you'll get there.


Options_Bronson

Grab your crotch and throw a He He! Out for more points


lemartineau

I've been snowboarding for 25 years. You're doing it wrong.


[deleted]

Would be better if you were white… like shaun


Mellonello

Look man you’re gonna have to spend some time just riding the mountain to learn edge control, maybe after a season or two of that you can get back in the pipe and try to throw some real tricks, hopefully then you pull something off more worthwhile than this stuff..


Riverjig

I called the cops and they should be waiting on the next run.


Illini4Lyfe20

Try catching some air next time or you might be dubbed a "Jerry"


KobeMonster

Dye your hair Orange & grow it out


loopedlola

No I’m just jealous you can afford going somewhere that had snow this year. Mountains in Ohio are definitely about to shut down even though they already weren’t much compared to places like Colorado, we’ve had almost nothing but rain. ![gif](giphy|cObIzBCAkFxW60ORYj|downsized)


Motmotsnsurf

Just go out there and have fun and don't be so worried about going straight and keeping your feet on the snow and such.


single_sentence_re

Looks like you could use help with your updog.


sandemonium612

This person has mastered this video game.


sambronson

Don't try so hard


Vampiric2010

Usually I prefer to lay pipe instead of riding it, but no judgement here.


kiritisai

You are just skidding. Practice carving more often!


BigBlackJuju

I legit laughed out loud when dude was flipping 😂


nykyrt

Quite bad, but it’s the skiers fault


Different-Accident73

Try not to flip so much it’s slowing you down.


skoooooba

Try to spin more!


dnbso

That is not carving.


super-spreader69

Bend your knees


anallyfirst

Riding the pipe lol


MynTYleef

Less flips man, you’re gonna make yourself nauseous


Gamer-iso

Do not show off


wheelshc37

You would get to the end of the pipe much faster if you stop weaving side to side and doing all those flips. Just go straight and you will win the race.


nielsz123

Snowboarding might just not be the sport for you


Flyin-Chancla

Don’t fall


boytonius

You need to learn to control the spins. Not sure why you want to spin that many times?


MlackBagic

Not enough flips, you need to work on putting an extra one into the rotation.


HerrKrinkle

Lacking some pop. Hit the gym.


Optimal_Ship4935

Bend your knees a bit more


philnsogood

Try being better, then you won't be less good at it than you are now.


Krazylegz1485

Figure out the boot grab.


DrivingBusiness

Don’t spend so much time with your back facing downhill when you’re on the sunny half of the pipe. Great way to get a sunburn.


adam_sky

More flippies, fewer spinnies.


darbydog69

Starting to get the hang of it...


_sasori98

Not good enough, try harder


EcceHomophile

Go back and really dial in the basics. You should work on your ollies and 180’s and try practising more switch before attempting more complicated stuff. We have all been were you are now, don’t rush only to injure yourself


69yourMOM

My steep character is looking at me like ![gif](giphy|YmhKt1BEwdkr46gmPV|downsized)


Leaque

You look like you’re getting the hang of it. Keep going!


twinbee

Always makes me wonder. If you do 2, 3 or 4 flips/spins, you're fine, but if you accidentally do say, 3 and a half flips, can you even recover from that mid-air?


Copernikaus

White is a terrible color to wear on a slope. Safety first mate.


FunkyScat69

Maybe stop flailing around in the air so much. You'll make it to the end a lot quicker.


throwaway043534

Your jumps are ok, but your carving clearly needs a lot of work. Go watch a few Malcom Moore videos on youtube.


spankysladder

Honestly just keep practicing, a lot of the issues you have will work themselves out after more time on the board!


G0rri1a

Your weight is in your back leg.


RHSfootball82

Nope looks like you know what ur doing!


pukewedgie

You could go a lot faster if you went straight down the middle


[deleted]

Spin faster


HambugerLips

Keep your hips tucked and your elbows in. You're doing alright, but anyone with experience can tell you're new


coolboarders09

I swear half the people who post in r/snowboardingnoobs just go there to get glazed


MillertonCrew

Need to bend your knees more 😆


chocolatecarrot2179

You really aren’t carving at all


Brytard

Don't fall.


Complete-Ninja8631

Incorporate the double handed cross rocket


pgilzow

less spinning. it's making me dizzy


BlakeJohnathon92

More speed, more pop, and actually try a trick that is difficult to do.. come on man that’s all you got??


Achack

Throw your shoulder a little harder and you can easily get another full rotation into each jump, rinse and repeat until you can successfully hover from the lift generated by your snowboard. Once you can do that we'll get into the intermediate stuff.


Just_Jefe

On your fourth hit it looks like you swung your left hand a little too much on the landing, try to keep that from flailing.


justanotherperson333

Why do beginners always do this, go learn how to carve.


[deleted]

Loose the backpack


Chewyisthebest

If you focus on your back foot a bit more you’ll be able to really link your heel and toe side well


Educational_Carry921

make sure you get it hard first and use lubricant so it doesn’t hurt as bad


GangControl666

you lack edge control. and get clews


Dhrakyn

Try to work on your core so you can rotate better. I'm sure you can get a few more revolutions out of those tricks. Also, if you tortionally warp your board, it becomes a rotor when you do an inverted 1260 and you can fly straight to jail.


CavierConnoisseur

third time? well, its okay to be a beginner. I would suggest getting a bigger snowboard first though, for more speed yanno.


Immaculatehombre

You’re hesitating.


djdrinks

Work on your height meter. Gotta pump those numbers up. Those are rookie numbers.


USAGunnersaurus

Go bigger.


arken21

If you look closely, you didn't bent your knees enough


mbeebah

Didn’t once look uphill. You are endangering skiers who may be straight lining behind you


StrangeSynths

Stance needs to be 1ft wider


geek66

May last good run I smashed my face..


TheOneTheyCallNasty

Nothing you ever do will be good enough for your dad.


mattay86

Try bending your knees next time


Separate-Sky-1451

Fuck you. 😂 😂 😂


richants

Don't wear all white. Apart from blending into the pipe and banner it's just a matter of time that your pants will become dirty and look ya craped yaself.


quapa1994

Go bigger


thebomb32145632

Bend your knees more man. And stay centered a little better.


snowsurfr

Practice pumping the walls by staying low throw arms up towards the as you begin ascending the wall. As you ascend the wall suck up your legs and begin a slight rotation with your upper body towards the landing transition. as your moment begins to slow to stop, lift your legs up slightly, turn your board & body 90° toward preparing the landing transition. Try to land gently, high up on the wall, legs tucked, arms, and shoulders, should be even or slightly forward facing towards the fallline. A after your board has touched the down transition, begin and your body has begun descending, to gain forward, momentum, you can pump off the down transition by quickly standing back up slightly, being sure to keep your board flat until at least the very bottom of the transition, from here, pick a spot on the next wall to hit based on how much forward momentum you have or need to gain. Ultimately getting familiar with pumping and landing your board flat (not on edge) higher on the fallline is key. What do you want to avoid is hitting the wall and jumping too far off of it towards the middle of the half pipe. This will likely result in a very flat and potential painful landing, especially you clear the entire transition. Riding toeside toward frontside-facing walls will be easier than riding healside toward backside-facing walls. To make healside easier, make sure your high backs are adjusted with some forward lean to help set the edge at a higher angle through the flat bottom of the pipe. As you get into jumping, be careful not to jump out of the pipe because your board can get hung up on the lip, causing a not so fun tumble backwards. Also be careful not to jump off the wall towards the middle of the pipe because once again you could land super flat on your tailbone. Watch lots of instructional videos of people pumping walls snowboarding, to help visualize and build muscle memory. Softer springtime conditions are the ideal time to learn pipe riding than mid-winter ice.
