So, how have I been tackling snowboarding as a newbie?
- get a good (extra patient) mentor (
@rnaveiras)
- try to ignore initial frustrations as much as possible
- keep focussed on the feedback
- every fall is a lesson, take a couple of seconds and understand what you did wrong

Some speed is your friend, keep on the front of the board and flex your knees when you need turn

End of third day and if the slope isn't too step I can do controlled turns. Both toe to heel and heel to toe. I still get scared of going to fast. Then I watch videos and I'm going at a snail's pace.
