Introduction to Snowboarding || Beginner Snowboard Session

This is for the near absolute beginner snowboarder and people looking for a quick refresher after their first lesson. In this video I'll outline the common terms used with relation to gear and the very first steps to choosing the right snowboard style and strapping boot to board. This covers what you need to know before ever sliding on the snow for the first time or getting back into the sport after years away.

I was a snowboard instructor for a few amazing seasons in my past and never lost my stoke for teaching the sport.

This is part of an ongoing series I am going to put together, so if your a beginner that's looking for tips or an instructor yourself, I would appreciate any constructive feedback and questions I can try answering in future sessions. Below is a quick breakdown of the chapters in this video:
